How many of you are still thinking of starting up again? I was hoping it would've thinned out by now, but the list is long overdue for some pruning and I'm trying to figure out how I''ll go about this.

I guess that means today is 'get that shit started back up' day!

Actually, it'll probably end up being tomorrow.

Monster Rancher 2 is, and has been, defunct rather than suspended.

I'm not going that far just yet. Right now I just want to get my ducks in a row and figure out where I should go from there.

I'm still planning to finish mine. I'm just trying to figure out if there's a format change that'll do the game justice before I get into the real meat of it.

I lost the savestate in an HD wipe. Not that a little thing like that would stop me, but shit's been kind of busy lately...

I should be up and running again by next week.

Can I start it up again? It's been a really long time.

I've been toying with it, but it probably won't happen.

I plan on finishing up after I get back from my wedding and honeymoon, so late Sept/early Oct? Everything has just become so hectic that I didn't have enough time to devote to quality write-ups.

I'd like to, but I'm not really counting on it since I lost the save and I'm going to be way more busy now than I was back when it was still active.

I kind of want to try mine again, since I've come up with a semi-decent way to show the differences between the two games I'm LPing (which in hindsight, was the biggest problem), but if I don't have it revived by the end of October, I'm going to let it die. Is it alright to start whenever?

My Boktai LP isn't gonna continue. Now that I'm married, I just don't have the time. I did have a very short lived attempt to revive it as a video LP, but there were just too many technical difficulties.

My next update is practically done. The problem is that the computer with the information on it does not currently have an internet connection (the perils of moving to another city!). I'm putting a hard deadline of September 14th to get it up, but hopefully it'll be up before then.

I find the "substitute teacher" approach works quite well. I'm lucky enough to have picked a game where I can get away with it.

Who was doing Star Control II? I want to see that finished, even if Lucifer has to take it over.

My windows computer is still half out of commission, which is part of what's been holding me back.

In general, I'd like to think that I can finish before the end of the year, but circumstances will probably not favor actual progress for at least another couple months. I'm in another forum's annual shooting game tournament through early October, which is likely to be all my "I only kinda want to do this but I feel obligated" gaming quota until then. I could maybe finish it all in the two weeks between that and IIDX Empress, but if I don't then it'll probably not see much action for another 3-4 weeks.

I also have to admit I kinda wonder if anyone cares. I do, since I hadn't played ToP in a long time and it was interesting to see a version I'd never been through before, but it seemed like basically everyone following in the first place was pretty familiar with the game, and there's not a whole lot of variety you can pull off in a linear RPG with only a handful of party members.

All right, lots of responses so far. That's good, it's giving me an idea for how I'm going to try and fix this before the list gets any longer. Anyone else still interested? Hint: This question is more important than it looks.

Ah, Pokemon Emerald just got moved into hiatus, which is where it technically belongs I guess. And there is interest! I took on the project, I will finish the project. I just severely underestimated how much school would kick my ass. I'm going to finish it! And hopefully it won't take me another year!

Sorry.

I still harbor hope of one day finishing up Bard's Tale. Heck, it's possible I won't be employed in a month, so that would give me some time...

I've got half-laid plans for resurrecting Star Ocean 2. I don't want to set a precise time that I'll inevitably end up failing at reaching, but a comeback is in the works.

I'm still continuing. School's put a dent in my update times, but they'll keep coming.

I will, someday soon. I've been adjusting to work and moving and getting my life in order, but now I'm finally getting into the groove of things and I think I'll have time to return to my Let's Play.

As soon as the Farfetch'd swarm in Pearl I intend to name one Leekcelot. If that puts some wind behind your sails all the better.

I want to finish mine but ever since Vista broke my capture card, every attempt to get screenshots has been really frustrating. At this point I've stopped bothering until the next Windows comes out later this year.
