Sorry to necro the thread, but it's something I feel like I can actually comment on, and I think it does add a little more perspective for anyone lurking.
This is my first post since OTT closed.
I was using it like Leveticus uses an ethereal tether to a Hollow Waif; the idea was I'd stay connected on the outskirts of the community via OTT until I could play again, then I'd rejoin the community in earnest.
I have barely been able to play anything, much less Malifaux lately due to real life getting in the way (as it often does with me- I'm a terrible multitasker ). Rather than go into my usual Proustian style, I'll just say that I have way too many games and will likely need to pare down a lot in 2016. I won't be quitting Malifaux altogether (my girlfriend likes the Gremlins too much and some of my old metals have actual sentimental value); maybe I'll be back around again in the future with actual game-relevant posts.
I miss OTT and it'd be nice if I could get everyone from there into a Facebook group or something, but at the same time, we were probably taking up a lot of bandwidth and database space for stuff that wasn't contributing to the hobby much (much less selling Wyrd product). It's gone, and that's a bit of a bummer, but I understand.
