We're not on the same page on this, and we should discuss this off-lj at some point.

Best of luck with your story crafting! I am sad to be missing the final events of MT, as money is contineus to be so very tight down here in California, preventing a trip North for me and "'Bella".

I would advise to be on your toes for the last events of MT, as the end of a game can drive many players to either push really hard to get their stories concluded (to a variety of unexpected actions), and can lead to a "last games" mentality of relaxing the needed character tension, as the player realizes that they are "doomed anyway". (I've been in... a crapton of "last games", to a variety of successes.)

That being said, the player base up there is truly incredible. Enjoy!

Yea... as for that ending thing...
...I'm pretty sure that the name will be changing and Nat will no longer be part of it as an administrator...
...But many have volunteered to step up to keep the story going.

As such, I don't think Erik is gona do the 'last game' things that you're worried about, because the goal will be to try and keep things as 'business as usual' during the transition :)

Oh, good to hear. I hope it does continue!

I hope that players know this continuation as a sure thing before the last game, so you don't get a "oh, what the hell" bloodbash, as some end games can end up becoming.

Again, though, *great* player base and just a voice in the wind about "last games" in general. :)
