I voted for Hiatus (not playing), but I'm not playing nor do I intend to play Therak for the forseeable future.
I saw the Sixty Thieves back on DB go through the same thoughts, though it was behind closed doors among the officers. They decided to just hand the guild over to someone they knew would be making changes they didn't want, since none of them would be active anymore. Having spoken to them much later, they do regret not disbanding the guild, and many of the "old guard" members from that time feel the same.
However, I also know that many people enjoyed the "new" version a lot as well, and the guild did continue to exist for years.

My thoughts in the end comes down to that it's better to let the guild go on hiatus and possibly die, as it is. Rather then possibly years from now almost being ashamed that we didn't do it that way, and the guild ends up unrecognizable and still barely active with long bouts of inactivity.
It's to me, the better of two bad choices and no good ones around. It's a shame to see the guild go down, but the orc way is Victory or Death... and I don't see Victory in the future here... People have just changed to much, gotten older, less time. Less enthusiasm for putting in a lot of work that still doesn't change things.

Yeah you all know how this works.
Let the randomness begin to settle the next champion!

Clearly, it's glass made from gorillas! They melt if you get the temperature high enough.

Nosh, that's actually not correct. It's last of november that's the last day to change tires. Not all parts of Sweden has snow early. The most important thing though, is to drive safely and if there's shitloads of snow, leave the car home if there's still sumer tires on.

Dogs should be of a size where you can wrestle with them without feeling guilty for picking on a toddler.

It's very noticably different from civ 5. So far it's probably the most solid release of a Civ game imo.
However... DON'T TRUST ANY SCYTIAN!
Horses... horses everywhere...

The point of a phobia is that it's not rational.
As for needles, it's not the pain I'm scared of. I'm scared of the needle. Just fixing a button on an item of clothing leaves me soaked in sweat.

Same thing for me as many else. I got burnt out.
It got to the point where I was getting very irritable and my girlfriend reacted. Just the thought of logging on gave me an uncomfortable feeling in my stomach and I ended up less and less active and then decided to take a break. Which was one of the best choices I've made.
I still don't feel comfortable logging on Therak most of the time, and I won't be back until that changes.

Because they didn't feel like just loafing around?
