Rhourk's game, Bloodlines: D&D 5th Ed - looks like it hasn't had a new post in almost a year.
This game is non-traditional use of the forums - a RL game where they use the forum pages to keep track of things. This is something Rhourk and I have discussed.
If a GM ends a game, for whatever reason, the expectation is that they tell a moderator so we can move it to the appropriate folder. We don't follow all games and would otherwise not know if a game has ended.
I'll clear my markers and monitor all game activity for a week and attempt GM contacts at that point.

There are only three that I know of that the DM recently decided to end Ravenloft though I believe this was already archived.
The other is The Monastery at Dimwater per Mant72's last announcement to us players. The last one is The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan per the final statements from grognardsw in OOC

Is someone taking over Grog's other games;
The Keep on the Borderlands and
That Which Should Not Be (Call of Cthulhu)?

Not that I know of Norjax
This was his last post in The Borderlands game.
I have been struggling against this, but the New Year has brought changes which unfortunately require me to suspend my PbP gaming. It has been a pleasure gaming with you all these past years,
both as DM and player. Keep/Expedition has always been a particular favorite. When I return someday I hope to pick it up again in some form. You're certainly welcome to have someone else DM if you like, as I did three years ago when the DM left after five months.
Thanks again for playing and best of luck in gaming and life.
He gave us a similar posting in the Hidden Shrine as well.

Thanks for playing.
Same thing in the CoC game.

CoC has been among my most creatively satisfying games as game master. You all role-played well. As I occasionally read back from the beginning I am always impressed at the deep level of narrative and role play.
I'm sure with the clues folks know the general pattern of where things were headed, if not the twists and final surprises. Like in many a Lovecraft story, some things are unknowable. Perhaps I'll pick it up again someday.
Thanks again for playing and best of luck in gaming and life.

My Sinister Secret of Saltmarsh game has now ended and can be put in the proper receptacle.
Thanks!

I'm not sure about stragglers, but my game ('
Dave's Mega Dungeon (LL)') was included in your purge, and it still quite active.

The Keep on the Borderlands - Still out there on the board index though Grognardsw has indicated he has left the boards due to RL needs.
That Which Should Not Be (Call of Cthulhu) - Still out there on the board index though Grognardsw has indicated he has left the boards due to RL needs.
The Hidden Shrine of Tamoachan (1e) - Still out there on the board index though Grognardsw has indicated he has left the boards due to RL needs.
The Monastery at Dimwater (1ed) - Still out there on the board index though Mant72 has indicated he has left the boards due to RL needs.

Oh shit, sorry! My mistake. Where in the list was it? I'll try to return it to the same place.

No worries, man. You can just go ahead and throw it on top of Mitch's game.
Or the bottom. Or anywhere, really.

Cool, hopefully those two return to the forums and decide to restart or jump back in where we left off.
However the quote below still is in question I assume since the DM hasn't been on here since 8/2016 the game is inactive unless the players are running the show.

Keep your mitts off my games, good sir.
While my attempt to launch a live Skype game did not go so well, I definitely do have plans on trying again at some point. Maybe with a different rule set? In fact, while it won't show as activity since it's been "hidden" in the private 'DM' sub-forum, I have actually started to assemble some 2e house rules in that game, just to try and collect and organize my thoughts.

I was in that game. The GM stopped the game.
