Well... it had to happen sooner or later. After three years of hosting large scale, Legion-themed, message board games, with this sixth outing, Exnihil Productions have finally come a cropper.
I apologize to the five folks who signed up, but it looks like there just isn't enough interest this time out to warrant Survivor: New Tartuga becoming a reality. (Mods, please de-feature this thread).
Perhaps, as Lardy suggested above, it was a lack of aggressive advertising (although, admittedly, there is a fine line between "advertising" and "becoming a pest" that I really didn't want to cross), but, honestly, I think it really comes down to bad timing.
From the feedback I received, both through this board and other channels, there were quite a handful of people who would have liked to take part, but had other commitments that precluded the time investment. I don't know if we would have hit the magic number, but trust me, we would have come a darned sight closer.
C'est la vie. Perhaps another day.
The one fellow that I really feel bad for is ol' Jeff Proty. I heard he really needed this gig and has fallen on hard times. Well, here's hoping he lands on his feet... er... blobby appendages.

Thank you, Ex, for all of the effort you put into this and all of the games you host... While I'm disappointed I'm not going to get the chance to play, I'll be the first one to sign up when you're ready to relaunch ...
As for Jeff Proty, I heard McDonalds is hiring ...
