There were four votes cast for Providence, three for another KC game, one for "I'd like to run a LARP", and four for "another game entirely".
All of the options that included *not* playing Providence included the indication that the Providence storyline would be wrapped up in 2-3 months, so when the majority in this latest poll voted for 'anything but Providence', it made sense to me that that meant this storyline would be wrapped up in 2-3 months (ergo, August at the latest).
If someone does want to step up and run a LARP, I thought it'd be good to give them a month of summer to get players together, to do a character creation night, etc.. Therefore, July seemed the most appropriate time to wrap up Providence.
I wasn't planning to end this game by August anyway; when the results of the poll came in, I figured that was the best time to do it.
Let me tell you what all this *wasn't*.
All of this wasn't my way of tricking y'all into voting to keep running Providence.
It wasn't my attempt to trick you in to wrapping up a game you're enjoying.
It wasn't some sneaky, passive-aggressive way of letting y'all know that I don't want to run Providence anymore.
This is what it *was*:
I wanted to get your honest and open opinion of what you want to play. While you were thinking about that, I was thinking about what I wanted to run. And I didn't want to colour *your* opinions with my own (hence, I didn't mention all of the things I've thought of running, because I didn't want you to get all excited about something that may never happen - I tend to change my mind a lot). I didn't set out thinking, "well, if they don't choose to play Providence, then I'm not running anything at all" or "if they don't want to play KC, they're screwed".
**sigh**
I'm sorry if I've upset you guys. I just want to help y'all have fun playing LARP. That's what I like to do.
If you want to keep playing a non-Providence KC game, I'll run one. I do think that it's clear that the majority of you do not want to keep playing Providence. IF someone else wants to run a LARP, I think that'd be great!
