    Just to not have another round of cancer and make it to 78, with no more friends and family deaths. Nasty things you get to experience at this stage of life.

    Oh for sure, but I mean specific bands/artists. Genre's have a habit of being more resistant.

    It sloshes back and forth and some of us stay true to the genre while a lot of people listen to e.g. trap and in 5-10 years whatever should take the place that trap currently has as the ‘new’ thing.

    I know it's not the exact word that you're looking for, but the Germans have a ‘Zielschmerz’ which means ‘fear of attaining your goal’.

    Serious lack of motivation on my part, having half the players drop is tough. You're really the only person to write decent orders too.

    Don't lose hope: If you keep updating you might get more people to join back in. Besides, thus far this NES has been fun, and the people that do remain would like to see it continue.

    Exactly :) Players will always drop out, its not the good old days. But if the game continues more will join and the story will go on.

    What would motivate you in the thread? More diplomacy? Stories?

    Ooops, no, thanks, undid that one.
    This button is next to the "watch thread" button, misclicked there.
    (also: This should go via PM, you know the rules ;) )

    So, when do you think you'll set the deadline for orders?
    I've already gotten mine in (read the bold text in my initial response to the update), but I'm curious.

    You might want to mention the players spoken to in the NPC diplo, as I don't think the others realized it was toward them.

    I will eventually. Its always a balance with engagement. I don't want to get into the point of carrying it too much.

    Regarding the other players and NPC diplomacy, you could say Dal Ariadi just didn't get a response from Uladh and... Tyr Connail is an NPC nation iirc, so you can have them just respond to Ariadi yourself, right?
