Well, just now, I have gotten my box for the PS3 to be sent in. I'm sending it in on the way to school, all of the way to Texas. It's not likely to get back until just before I have to move.
Therefore, unfortunately, GCW will be closing down. I hate how this has ended, but given the hardware situation, I cannot do anything different about it. Whereas I felt we were a good kind of unique by running with Next-Gen visuals... it kind of bit us in the ass in the end due to my system crashing, and the difficulty it'd be in having someone else sim the shows. Don't get me wrong, I have no regrets about going next-gen and thought that was one of our best features for this year, but unfortunately the hardware didn't hold up.
I want to thank everybody for participating this year. I think this was probably the most fun that I had since the LXW opening year (which was my first year), and for the most part, this year didn't seem like such a chore like I had let it be in the past. I'm a tad bit disappointed that the activity levels couldn't keep up at times, leaving me to wonder if the fed had died or not... but that's seemingly e-fed-land wide, not just in here. Mostly, I'd like to thank those that have stuck by, and RP'd with me for the most of these last four years, and participating in my feds: Myke, Kyle, Brian, Bryan, Addy, Ryan, Jay, Jager, Haven and especially Lessien... you guys have been a lot of fun to work with through the years, and a constant encouragement to keep on pushing here to keep the fed running, and providing a place to unleash some creativity. Even if we've all had our sore moments between us.
And, as well, to anybody participating or watching, or both, I give to you my most sincere of apologies. I didn't want GCW to have a shitty ending, but unfortunately, fate saw differently. GCW was a difficult beast at times and pretty much rocky throughout it's existence, but I feel that it always had it's potential to be a premier e-fed.
For what happens from here on out? I'm unsure. I have bought a home, and I will be spending time moving into it and improving it, as well as spending time with my girlfriend and doing school. For now, I'm sure that some of you have closing RPs to do, as do I, and I encourage you to do them. And, who knows? Maybe one day, I'll be RPing with some of you in another fed down the road (although probably not one that I'm adminning... it's high time I retire from that lol). Thanks a lot, you guys.

Of course, ending with Crymson was poetic if not totally irritating. 
but im going to miss this place a lot, and rp'ing with all of you, becus as i've told afew people, im basically done in the fed world and maybe in the caw making world, unless the rp bug bites again, then TNB better be prepared 
), 187/Remmy/Jayceon (Jack v Remmy never dissappointed in my books), Bryan "Showtime", Leon (eventhough hes gone, great rp'er and a really nice guy), Shia ( been gone even longer, but still was jacks biggest foe imo, which was a great thing 
™
). as this was only place where i found that he was not a total shamble XD, this place will always have its place in my memories as one of the best times of my life. would like to thank everybody who helped me evolve as a rper throughout my time here. Thanks to everybody, too many to mention, well lets just say everybody who has ever Rped with me deserves thanks. im dissapointed that this place didnt get the send off it deserves. i really dont know what to say at the moment. too many thoughts are running through my head about what i want to say. so i will say one thing. THANK YOU
