I can't imagine why. Of the three high profile people who have moved to the new project, only two of them would normally be involved in the creation of new systems - Television and Second Measure - and both of them were primarily managers: Television as the development lead and Second Measure as the producer. Virtually everyone who would have actually worked on a new system are mostly still here, including in particular the design lead (Positron) and the powers and systems lead (Black Scorpion).

"Mostly"?

What parts of them are missing? Fingers, toes, ears?

That depends on which virtual environment you're inquiring about.

There'll still be some backwater dimensions holding out against her greatness, and they'll only be wiped out in I32.

The "uniqueness" of the next issues "new" zone would maybe call that into question. But I digress.

And Davids work has been stellar, the game is without question better with him on board period.

Did anyone ever manage to compile a list of all those threads or the contents of his posts? I'd love to read them all.
