Unfortch it's just been me and Gia fighting the good fight; we had a few people while you were away but they disappeared right around the holidays and never came back.

In all honestly, I'm not 100% sure what Gia and I can do to keep this going beyond just the two of us right now, but we're still trying to brainstorm ideas. The downside is, i work 40 hours per week minimum, and Gia's hours are a bit more sporadic than mine, so we're having to balance that against a forum that isn't generating a lot of community interest.

One of the things we're doing is contemplating adjusting the plot to have an identifiable antagonist/s, rather than to have a nebulous, unnamed sort of ideological antagonist. If you have any suggestions that wouldn't go against some of the core tenets we have, mainly: one element per person, no elements beyond the four original, and no canon characters from the series (we've toyed with the idea of TARP-created 'canon' characters but not sure how well that would work) — please feel free to share them.

For whatever it's worth, Gia and I don't consider TARP 'dead' because of lack of activity, so long as we're willing to keep it running. Perhaps it's not a lively place, but since we're both 30+ with demanding jobs and not a whole lot of free time, we're pretty considerate as to other peoples' schedules and are content to just leave the light on.

BTW, before I redo my reply, I must notify you of this really annoying glitch on mobiles that flashes the text box and makes it very annoying to type. Also, my message was lost when I tried to send it. It held a lot of suggestions about the plot.
