What MagicDuel Lacks

More people would help, but there's a lot more that matters:

back then things were happenin, nowdays majority of players are passive

The RPC era had its flaws, but at least people were actively seeking something. Spelldocs, role-related objects, new lands, the defeat of a powerful enemy, the aid of a friend...all these and more were goals "back in the day".
Now...:
[b]Festivals:[/b] Summer, War & Remembrance, Halloween

[b]Quests:[/b]
[b]Ongoing: [/b]Newbie intros, Maebius' mini-quests, Lost Path, Z's transposition, Lashtal's mirror quest..
[b]Seasonal:[/b] Halloween (Day of Fear, colorful skulls), community garden (writing, scarecrows, pumpkins)..
[b]Temporary:[/b] Fang's trivia, Androme's hide-and-seek, assorted expeditions through viscous areas

[b]Efforts[/b][b]: [/b]VISION group, community garden, newspaper...and some others rarely [url="http://magicduel.invisionzone.com/topic/12720-buying-materials/"]mentioned[/url] on the forum or even publicly ingame.

This may look like a lot, but it's not unified. In the time of the AL many people worked toward a few large but mostly achievable goals.

[size=1]*This is not a complete list by any means; no offense meant if your quest is not mentioned here.[/size]

Okay, then stop idling all day long and do something.

People [u]are[/u] doing some things. They could do more, sure, but the main issue is that they're mostly focused on their own spheres [size=1]cubes[/size] rather than any uniting factor.

I assume that in Wodin's day everyone wasn't constantly talking about Wodin and his quests. Plenty went on on the side..but there was an air of 'something important is going on in MD right now' about.

Maybe it was nothing like that, but from conversations, readings, and personal experiences (the Dominion Journey and some projects in the realm beyond) I get the feeling that most people were interested in the Big Thing going on at the time.

Things will come together to a smaller extent during Halloween, but lacking a strong unifier the collective spirit may very well dissipate as quickly as it gathered.
