There was some activity on the interest check I think. From what I remember Hellis never said anything but a few of the others basically assumed this was dead, and I guess Hellis just assumed that the rest of use grew disinterested as well. I'm not really sure. I mean I was content to wait, the gm said he/she was workin on the first post not long before that. 

It could still be the case that he/she's still workin on it, maybe it'll be the magnum opus of first posts, who knows?
