He got sick of your revolution.. literally. You and Che were always lighting up stogies, in fact too many.

My guess he joined Fritz, Quiksand, Marmel, TroyF, and the rest of the guys who have since been written off our soap opera we call FOFC. I wonder who will be elected the new mod of the board?

As we all probably knew, but didn't want to be true, SkyDog, battling severe cases of split personality, has forever gone over to using GroundCat as a forum alias, and since he banned himself in a moment of temporary blackouts, he now resides over att deanhouston.org.

All that talk of another board has got me thinking though, FOFC is indeed much less active than before... There was a time when, if you were offline for a day, you'd have 4 or 5 pages of new posts awaiting on your return. Now, it's barely a couple of pages... and most of them aren't that interesting either... :(

Probably due to the fact that the text sim market is VERY stale right now, and has been for some time now (pretty annoying actually).

#2 I won't argue. #1 I scoff at. We don't know for sure. Aren't most of you still playing FOF 2004? Did NCAA Football 2006 just come out? True there have been updates, but with Jim's "closed mouth" policy, nobody really knows for sure.
