Atlasia has had a great run. I am perhaps not the best to speak of what in particular made it great over its 11 years, but it one can hardly claim otherwise. But there is now a broad consensus that the game in its present form has reached its limits, that we must turn to something new. I think many-- myself included-- took such sentiment to mean that we must stop taking part in such games altogether, that the Atlas as a whole was dead, and so too must Atlasia die.
But this is not the case. We see that
almost 3 out of 4 Atlasians think it is time to start anew. And start anew we already have. We have revived the
Mock Parliament and there are now over two dozen players signed up, just a day after starting. Here is our new start, our opportunity to play a game that will be engaging, interesting, and above all
fun as Atlasia was at its start and in a way we now find so lacking from the game today. We have the potential to work with a constitutional framework allowing flexibility and adaptability, precluding the inertia and stagnation that left so many cynical and disillusioned. Here is our new opportunity. It should not be allowed to pass us by.
