Hello, I cut the growing discussion about the World Flags and moved onto the Worlds and Stories Board

Is the board OK, or is there something weird about what I'm seeing? I haven't seen any new posts at all for a couple of days.

Let's see whether this one shows up.

Same here! I see you now thorny, and I’ve seen various names at the bottom mentioned as ”users active within the last 15 minutes”, although it’s only been one other name besides my own. But it’s not completel dead!

It showed up. I think there was just not much activity in the last days.

Let’s hope everyone is busy creating for the chapter break challenge :)

Many Europeans are probably on summer holidays and hopefully busy doing nice things. Also I think the term starts or is about to start for many of the students we have here, as well as for the faculty. My teens start school tomorrow. Combined with the break it’s natural to see diminished traffic. But of course it doesn’t have to be this way, just start a new discussion! :)

I noticed that too. I usualy check the Forum several times each day, and we've been on a low activity phase. Hopefuly it's temporary. I suppose it may be connected. as Jitter mentioned, with this being a time of vacations for many users.
I've been reading the comic of this month, and yes, I am busy writing a story for the break. I hope to have it by the weekend. :)

Hey this reminds me! Should we start the forum re-read soon?

I don't know. I always saw the re-read as something we would start when SSSS reached its end, to ease the transition and minimize withdrawal effects...
But I'm open to other views.

Whew. Everything's OK, we're just all busy.

(Me too, actually. I have something I want to post in comic-of-the-month, but I wanted to check something first further back in the comic, and it's taking me a while to find it --)

Does anybody know where the Birthday Thread has gone? I can’t find it on the Forum any more.

-__- I've been super busy too. Uni's a load of work for me. Perhaps I also took too many classes, oops!

I like the idea of rereading at the end. Alternatively, would anyone like to start re-reading A Redtail's Dream? We should be done at around the time SSSS ends, though I can't remember if that was meant to be part of the original forum re-read plan!

It's still under Personal for me, just not pinned. I can't remember if it used to be :P

Catbirds, why don’t you open a thread for the ARtD re-read over on the Worlds and Stories? Just suggest it, I would assume some others will sign up.

Catbirds, you can count with me for the reread! :)
As for the birthday thread, I don't recall it being pinned. AFAIK only the comfort corner and the emergency... have been pinned.

So it is done! :) It would be nice to participate in an active discussion about aRTD, considering I didn't get to the first time 'round (when it was first released).
