There are still some abandoned games out there that haven't been "cleaned up"

Into the Unknown (1ed/2ed) - Ullek (Hasn't had time or logged in since March 9th)

RANDUNSAN! 5E Pulp Sandbox - Mister-Kent (Hasn't logged on since April 15th) not entirely sure but it appears to be abandoned at this point.

Island of The Forgotten Gods (AS&SH 2e) - Tamerlaine (Hasn't logged on since March 5th) not sure but appears to be abandoned.

Across the Known World (B/X retro) - thirdkingdom just announced he hasn't got a lot of time to keep the game running and is closing the game up.

That's all looks like otherwise the boards are pretty well cleared up. Thanks admin team

I confirmed thirdkingdom's intent and will take care of archiving it. I will also archive Mister-Kent's game as I'm aware of his disappearance (including an unread PM from me addressed to him going back to 'Sun Apr 22, 2018 2:31 pm').

Per what you shared in our conversation in Google Chat, I will also go ahead and archive Ullek's game as well.

The moderators (read: Ethan) have a process for dealing with games that seem abandoned, so Tamerlaine's game will be discussed/confirmed in the Moderator forum and dealt with accordingly.

Thanks for bringing them to our attention.

Glad to help Dave.

These requests have been completed.

It's probably safe to archive Tamerlaine's game as well, but we may want to confirm this before officially taking the action.

Thanks, again.

This has been archived as well.

This is unfortunately true. There is a list that keeps track of occurrences.

I don't like making lists like this, but apparently it is necessary...

Having your name on that list is a factor in determining if you can set up a new game on USS.

Unfortunate indeed. New Goal for self (Never get on that list)

Thanks again guys for taking care of this.

Hi,
Fyi, unfortunately ybn1197 had to fold up his games due to RL: viewtopic.php?p=373282#p373282

Hi,

You can archive Paths of the Damned (Zweihander). Per the post from Bitter Dice in his OOC thread he is unable to continue the game.

Yikes.

It's done.

Please Archive the Rise of Smaug. Second try at getting Burning Wheel off the ground is a bust. We will let it lie fallow for a while again.

Done.

The Midland War by Bigtaff: DM hasn't posted here in two months. Hasn't logged in in one month.

Monumentstaden (Svärd & Svartkonst) by sastaz: DM hasn't logged in in two months.

Not completely accurate, because he's posted in private forums. You just can't see that information. So it's just been almost a month since last post; still, I'll check in with him and see if he is going to continue his game.

I'll check with sastaz. I've no idea if there was any discussion of absence since it's all in Swedish. That's a first for me...

Thanks! That may be my first officially completed PbP game ever. Feels good.
