Hello everyone,
I'd like to apologize for my chronic inactivity. It's also rather ironic that I'm finally getting to this amidst finals, but that's irrelevant.

CCRPG is a part of my life. It was my creation, and I spent weeks worth of man-hours maintaining it. Despite however easy it is to ignore it [especially when the To-Do list is massive], I continue to constantly think about it and how I miss it.

Having said that, I make my return. Now, I don't blame you all if you feel like I've abandoned CCRPG both in and out of character. But the truth is, with most of the stuff that I've been learning in my Comparative Politics and Economics courses, I keep thinking about how I could integrate concepts into the game. Prior to my second absence [since I sued peace in my war] I had talked about [in the Staff Board at least] reforming and revising the rules and adding new aspects of the game.

Due to the large degree of commitment it requires [despite the massive amounts of fun, which I will miss], I have decided to forfeit my country of Ellia. I have no idea how this will affect the in-game situation [or for all I know, it's been conquered by bloodthirsty nations].

My time here will be devoted to revising and fixing the rules and game atmosphere. I also hope to be more active on the Community Boards, which I've always wanted to be more but was hindered by the IC experience which I value the most.

Once everything's all set, I hope to rejoin the game.

So, I'm back, so to speak. Now, the first thing is first, I need a massive update on the game/rules situation, preferably from the Staff. :D

Edit: And for curiosity's sake, what's been going on IC?

Firstly, welcome back Ryan!

I'm sure that everyone would agree that we missed you greatly during your leave of absence. However, we do not blame you for having a life, nor do we hold any ill-will against you. So don't worry, there were no abandonment issues, at least none that I know of. :lol:

On another note, I am glad to hear that you will be returning to us, but sad that you will not be carrying on the legacy of Ellia. Truth be told you were both a formidable enemy and a worthy adversary. It was partially due to your nation's defeat that caused me and Wraith to take up arms against both Emencia and Sietch.

As for in game right now, I added a continent because everyone was cramped, there were some stipulations to the addition but those have since run their course. We also brought back R&D, staff issues are being worked out right now. As for the actual IC game, well, there are rising tensions on Lideria, and everywhere else is prettymuch peaceful. Odd, I know, but Dutraya and Etremia are basically divided between Se'alon, Duran and Emencia so there isn't much that can go on without a chaotic war.

There may be more, but I just don't know. If you need any information just PM me or something and I'll fill you in as best I can.

Oh yeah, it's also wonderful to here that you will be revising the rules.

Anyways, good to have you back!

Thank you Ares! ^_^ It's good to be back. I am sure that CCRPG has been fine under your collective watch with Cow [and has Ben been around?].

I had been thinking to myself whether I should continue the Ellic legacy and ultimately respawn in my same location with the Republic I had always planned, or start something new entirely. Anyway, that's out of the picture for a while, unfortunately. :hmm:

But I'm going to need an in-depth picture of what's gone on in the Staff Board, preferably in the Staff Board. I've poked around a bit there before I made this post...

Well, just so you know, you probably already know this anyways, but I am keeping the map updated, and I can for the future as well if you want me to. I rather enjoy it.

Glad to see you back, but too bad to see that you aren't going to be part of the IC for now. The more nations the better. Maybe handing back some of your old sectors might convince you to play... :P
