[QUOTE="reiella, post: 174498, member: 160"] Most have just faded away. Meowth is close to it. Near impossible for Meowth to get a fight and will prolly remain as difficult for quite a while. Alot of the old populace ended up leaving due to the death of rp. RP is dying more so with the continued growth of 'chat matches'. Also at least myself and a few other of the older players stopped using flavor text as readily in their moves as it was starting to appear that some judges were being influenced (even subconsciously) by the flavor (a nice bit is just consider how the turtle style is considered when used by anyone besides Meowth). Part of the trouble is that it is now closed. Some of the fun with YB1 at least was just that 47 was able to toss new stuff out at us at times(which also caused alot of the balance issues actually). One possibility that might be worth pursuing for YB to make it bring some life to it is to have some more persistant 'events' aside from the tournaments (ie, YBA type stuff), and possibly some discussion for introducing new rules to the mix (stuff for, Post Tier 7... although would need some heady incentive for Tier 6 or lower to fight tier 7s... it's a death trap currently).
