With all the Discords I'm in, there's very few actual events and activities and it's mostly just chat, chat, and more chat with some artwork sharing. Gets a little tiring after a while.

    I miss hosting Stalkers RPG as well. It was fun despite it being quite of bit of work to put together. Looking back, it would have been better and easier to manage with shorter and fewer Stalker routes, less filler stuff, and give it more of a short and sweet kind of feel than have these complex things going on (Season 2 Sin Purge Ritual was insane and Season 5's map was gigantic when it didn't need to be). Better to have it too short and have people asking for more rather than having everyone wonder "are we there yet" and drift off to other things before the end.

    But yeah, all the little horror subplots for each Stalker and subplots at some of the locations were fun to create. And man, Aglome Oen posts were such a guilty pleasure. xD
    I feel like that about GCEA. sooo much work but when it was good it was pretty fun.

    oh hiiiiii.....poking my head back in.

    I do too, and I feel bad for taking it offline for a refurb that never completed quite often, particularly when I'm on here :(

    Trust me, I feel bad for every Stalker RPG season that never finished as well. A few did finish (some were given a shortened duration) but there were a couple where the burnout just got too hard for both the players (many silently dropped out) and for me. It was like "oh crap, we've been at this for four months now and they still have a ways to go..."

    Given, I wish I discovered the formula for Stalkers RPG way back when during earlier times (many ideas of mine crashed and died prior to it). I would have liked to get more successful millage out of it and start it back in like 2006 rather than 2016 (instead of writing a ton of meh fan fiction that I'd probably never revisit). There were a lot of members of the PE2K community that came and left that never experienced it and I think they would have liked it.

    But yeah, events and ideas like these... impossible to run on Discord. With forums essentially dead, I'd have to get an idea like that programmed into an actual fan game with menu interfaces and graphics and all that stuff (and I'm not a programmer). That's a HUGE undertaking. And the reward for being successful and famous with something like that is you get copyright strikes from Nintendo.

    It was good fun while it lasted, though. It at least beats the reality that it was possible I could have never tried this idea and it wouldn't have happened at all. So I'm glad it had a good few solid years to shine and people enjoyed it for the most part.
