[b]Alright, big announcement time.[/b]

After talking it over with a few people and getting their feedback, I've come to a major decision regarding the game: we're pulling the plug and starting something else in it's place. This particular game has been limping along for the past few months, and I attribute the fact that it even survived that long to the players who stuck with it. You're good people, which is why I want to also say that the news ain't all bad for you. Here's why.

Long and short of it is, we're taking another crack at One Universe. While it won't be set in a Year One, like this game - it'll be set five years after Superman's debut - you all have the option of transferring your applications/posts over there and getting automatic approval if you've made a post in DCUG within the last month. You can continue where you left off if you want, if feasible, or adjust some minor things to accommodate the setting. You can also reboot your character. If you want to try someone else, that's fine, too. 

But there'll be a secondary factor to consider. Since I don't feel as though we'll be raking in higher-than-normal numbers in the midst of the pandemic, I'm throwing in an added incentive: everyone gets the option of one DC and one Marvel character. Yes, two characters, as long as they're from the opposite imprint.

The *restriction* on this is that we'd be treating each character individually. So if you really want two, you gotta put in at least one post of both characters every two weeks. Not nessescarily reinventing the wheel there, but it is something to consider nonetheless.

Lastly, Batman will be available to contest from the start. I've ran out of steam with him and am looking into other avenues. I also realize that I've spent way too long hogging up the cowl and want to take a step back, regardless, so I doubt I'll be taking it back up anytime soon.

I'll allow a few days for this announcement to sit, since I realize it's a drastic departure and a bit out of left field. But I felt it was for the best. RPs focused on one of the major comic imprints are still neat in theory, but times and tastes have changed.
