I've made a request to Black Dragon to take down the Flat Earth forum. I've been working on comic strips lately, and I'm quite happy with my first couple of finished pages.
I hate to shut down the game, but I know that I won't be able to run it while making art for the comic. I'm going to need a sizable backlog of strips before I go live, which basically means if I'm drawing and scanning, I need to draw and scan for the comic and nothing else.
I do want to thank everyone who played the game, however. When I came up with the Barbarian Schoolgirls concept, my art sucked. There was no way I'd have attempted to make a comic with my skills at the time. Flat Earth forced me to get better, and I even learned how to draw lightning and blood sprays.
I don't know if I'll make any money drawing a sketchy-looking comic that goes back and forth between stand-alone strips and adventures, or even attract regular readers. What I do know is that I can draw well enough to confidently attempt it, and I owe Flat Earth players my thanks.
Maybe I owe you a game that ends properly, too, but I don't want to promise that right now. Instead, I hope you can accept my apology for leaving the game hanging for so long only to, um… hang up. And hopefully you know my gratitude is sincere despite my abandoning the game like a seemingly-ungrateful oaf.
