A lot of the players left either as part of the exodus, or life situations. It also didn't help that last year I had a umber of medical issues that impeded by ability to drive the plot.
So, because I happen to love my ship, I am considering doing a reboot. Clear out the dead wood. The Aeon plot was supposed to be for Exploration, so I may take her back onto that path.
Give me a few days, and I will make a post on the site regarding the reboot and see what interest can be generated.
