Regarding 2k1's current status.

Let's reset hats and money and etc. Make people start over. Make some new quests. Make some new events.

Why do I say a reset? Because it will make everything even. Plus, it's not like people will quit because of a reset - those that would, already have.

Doing that will make people come back, I think.

It's just...we have to do SOMETHING, because the lack of attention/activity is not helping at all, but instead hurting things.

The thing is, to keep people, we have to pay a lot of attention to it, and have frequent updates. If we don't do this, then people will come, do the new thing, and leave until another new thing comes again month(s) later.

I'll start working on a quest or an event. Haven't decided which one to make first.

Anyhow, I see a few things that need to be done. Jeff talks about "bringing back the golden age." Instead of that, we should be focused on something like "bringing about a NEW golden age". We can take some inspiration from the past, but as much as we'd like to relive it, it wont' happen.

Thing 1: We need to rearrange many items on the overworld. It's too crowded - Not a lot of room for new things.

Thing 2: Remove the half-finished projects that were never completed from the overworld. It looks horrible.

Thing 3: Develop new quests and events. With a cleaner overworld, we'll have places to put things.

Thing 4: Staff need to be more active. This includes me. I will be the first to admit I haven't been on as much lately as I was before. However, I'm going to start being online more, and being more active.

Thing 5: Once we gain more players, we need to work to keep them. This means continue the activity, release something new at least semi-frequently.

If we can accomplish these 5 things, the sleeping dragon that is Graal2k1 shall awaken, and perhaps even with a vengeance!

Oh, and we need to Change. The. Name.
