You are absolutely correct. It is often difficult to juggle the demands of a day-to-day job against those of a webisodic adventure like this one. Participation is what makes or breaks a program, but if it relies too heavily on a small core, it cannot survive. New faces and ideas are constantly required. That is why we debated so vehemently over if and how to advertise. We recognized we needed more participants and we reached out for them. Now is the time for the lurkers and part time posters to "step to the plate."
MarsDawn needs active participants. We usually have a good supply of them, but no matter how well intentioned we are, we do get busy and have to attend to "the real world" at the expense of our entertainment.
That is where so many of you out there come in. Each of you has a lot to contribute. When the most active of us are unable to play as much as we would like, it is up to you to fill in the gaps. Most of the "regulars" of today began by pushing their way in during the gaps until they were part of the inside core themselves. You can be too.
