Mandate Permanent Cancellation

[MoLAoS]

To put it nice I just burnt the shit out of the bridge that connects to a quite large section of the internet community who would be interested in Mandate. As such, there's no longer any point in continuing development of the game. My motivation pretty much instantly evaporated, as well. Shit could get even nastier in the next few days depending on how certain relevant personalities play things, basically if they disclose private messages or don't, since no one has any reason to take my side over said personalities' version.

Anyways, Omega, feel free to close this forum.

It's easier to leave the forum as is for now, but it can be archived immediately if desired. At any rate, I'll keep a close watch to make sure that nothing gets nasty on this board.

I didn't understand the reason why do you cancel Mandate and I never could compile it in linux , but anyway have a good luck on your next project.

It's a pity that you're going to give it up, I liked the idea that there was something *Glest* going next to MegaGlest, and while I never got where you were heading you seemed to have spent a lot of time and made a good progress. So what happened?

As I explained in the OP, I basically had a pretty nasty argument/pm convo with a certain person who happens to run the forum most of my player interest was coming from. This happens to me a lot because my personal opinion on how civil one needs to be on the internet when arguing about video games does not mesh well with most forum moderator/admin/owner types.

Basically if I have a really nasty day in RL, my tolerance for people obsessed with "civility" tends to crash. As for why its in scare quotes, that's a long conversation about the politics of culture we don't need to have here.
