"I'd like to join because I like zOMG! and think it would be a good
idea to discuss ideas for future expansion to the game." - Veil Hasoc

gataka Need to discuss what we'll do with this place
You start, I'll hop in when I see an opportunity. 3nodding
What are you thinking, though? I know this place has been rather inactive, but again that's mostly because of everyone who's disappeared and the state of the game at present; the future just isn't a hot topic right at the moment. Do you think there's something in particular we ought to do about it?

Options: 1 - No Future A: game remains as is, Gaia eventually removes it, sad people are sad. Stop advertising, archive the place and move on. 2 - No Future B: game remains as is, Gaia eventually removes it, sad people are sad. But still talk about what could have been, what ifs, and starry-eyed what nots. Pure fantasy. 3 - Future A: relaunch à la 2.0, Gaia tries again. Explore the details, but mainly lobby to make it happen, celebrate when it does. 4 - Future B: branch off, somebody other than Gaia decides to build a new zOMG!. Find them, see if they're worth supporting, hows and such. Last option (5) is to talk about something else entirely, something not zOMG! Short: End it. Let it end, party on the way. Try to restart (with Gaia) Try to restart (without Gaia) Spanish Inquisition. I favor option 1: I'm pretty much done with zOMG!, letting it drift into my past. I won't partake heavily into any new discuss ¯3¯ But whichever what's needed is at least one dreamer to lead. The old ones are drifting away, new ones are unlikely to pop up, and I have yet to spot any appropriate to drag kickin' and screamin' into this place :U

gataka 1 - No Future A: game remains as is, Gaia eventually removes it, sad people are sad. Stop advertising, archive the place and move on.
I probably wouldn't explicitly close or archive the place - if you think that it would be best to stop accepting new members, we could probably do that. I prefer things to come to an end de facto rather than de jure; if they stop they stop, but it likely won't be because I said so.
Quote: 2 - No Future B: game remains as is, Gaia eventually removes it, sad people are sad. But still talk about what could have been, what ifs, and starry-eyed what nots. Pure fantasy.
I don't personally mind exploring 'what-ifs', you know. You and I both have a particular interest in game design, and if nothing else I think zOMG! can serve as an interesting thought experiment - it has a rather unique position, meaning unique opportunities and restrictions. Most of the time I spend thinking about zOMG! is not because I necessarily expect to see things implemented, but because it represents a puzzle with interesting solutions. 3nodding
Quote: 3 - Future A: relaunch à la 2.0, Gaia tries again. Explore the details, but mainly lobby to make it happen, celebrate when it does.
I do strongly believe that Gaia will come to a point where it reconsiders zOMG!'s position on the site - I also think that it's possible to design a zOMG! 2.0 that could be successful. That said, I think a strong concept for the latter needs to be available by the time the former happens, if we actually want to achieve it. I don't trust Gaia to do so. redface
I don't see much point in lobbying though, as what Gaia needs is time. I'd like to be ready when that time comes, but that's as much about organisation as it is exploring possibilities.
Quote: 4 - Future B: branch off, somebody other than Gaia decides to build a new zOMG!. Find them, see if they're worth supporting, hows and such.
I... Don't even see how that's a possibility. zOMG! is pretty integrally stuck to the site. Perhaps someone could develop something similar, or with similar elements, but 'a new zOMG!' seems really hard to achieve.
That said, I'd always be happy to hear about something in this vein. If you see anything, let me know. wink
Quote: Last option (5) is to talk about something else entirely, something not zOMG!
Not really the point of the Guild, but you know that's always welcomed in this thread. In fact, Gaia is really the only way I have to get in touch with you - which is a shame - so having somewhere for us to chat even about nonsense seems important at least to me.
In general, it doesn't bother me whatever happens with this place - there was a time when it was fulfilling a need (at least for me), but that need no longer exists as it used to. If there were such a need within the community I would expect it to present itself, but at this point it really hasn't. At any rate, I'm just not sure what to do about it anymore... redface

..fudge, stupid WiFi interference ate my other post =.=
Anyway, for now I'll insist that the state of this place must be made clear to anyone interested in joining, to avoid giving false hopes or otherwise wasting people's time.

Don't worry, I'll make sure I'll bring back some tumbleweeds from some dead place like the Aqueduct. redface
