I don't want to continue to hijack worthy's thread so to continue.

It's been 10 months since this announcement. How do you not get that this is now a dead game already?

After more than 16 years at WhatIfSports, seble recently departed. He was a key part of our team since the very beginning and he will be sadly missed. It wasn't the verbal abuse from a small, vocal minority of HD coaches that drove him off, though. (We've all grown some pretty thick skin over the years and have developed the ability to cut through profanity and insults to pinpoint actual issues). Company buyouts were offered earlier in the year and, as a long-time employee, seble qualified and opted to depart but not before completing and staying on to verify what we believe is an incredible update to Hoops Dynasty.

HD is now in the dedicated hands of two veteran WIS employees: redhawk_514 and cwisniewski. Both have been competitively playing HD for years and served key roles in the 3.0 upgrade. The transition has been months in the making, so both are excited to take the reins and continue to improve the game. Both will become much more active in the forums moving forward.

Following today and Friday's dev chats, we'll continue to work on smaller features and fixes stemming from the 3.0 rollout. Next up will be a complete overhaul of the Jobs process.

Almost all of my prior interactions with WIS have been completely positive. (I've had an account here since 2002.) Maybe that's why I'm so weirded out by this one.

I don't consider the game dead. Don't forget WIS was originally very responsive on this issue. That part was not surprising.
