		<description>TSO is dead, now leave quietly while it can be left with some amount of dignity.

If your waiting for the game to suddenly be fantastic then you have wasted your time and money in the process. There are simular games already on the market that surpass TSO in many many ways.  Go check them out.  I would suggest There but it looks to be closing also so try Second Life or Singles.  For god sakes try something.  TSO was so mind numbing boring that if I HAD to play again I would off myself.  It&#039;s now just pathetic how ppl are holding on to final end.  I would play TSO again if I too was retarded and very little body function left.  TSO is a kiddie game so unless you have the mind of a 12 year old GROW UP and play something ANYTHING that takes more than 2 brain cells.

For the love of Maxis let it die Please!!

		<description>Zipper, what medications are you on? If TSO had 200,000 subscribers, the hardware would melt.

You guys crack me up with your idiocy. Just keep your mouths shut unless you know what you&#039;re talking about.

		<description>Another issue might have also been the location, a more populated region would probably dish out more TSO players willing to attend.  Put it this way, I live in NJ, and i&#039;m under 18.  How the hell would I get out the Michigan for a convention?  Thats just the way I look at it though...if you moved maybe close to NYC i&#039;d attend.  but, another good place would probably also be out in California somewhere....i&#039;ve come across a number of players from the western shore.

		<description>Well, 300 people compared to the 80,000 people who play in just Alphaville, and not to say that more than 200,000 people play TSO. So I think thats why they cancelled it.

		<description>300 would be a HUGE event, I dont know where you guys get your ideas. And there were no where near 50 signed up, so whomever told you 300 signed up was wrong.

		<description>Three hundred may not be a lot, but for a first time event that didn&#039;t pick up EA support until late in the process it would have been a good showing.  The organizers did a fantastic job with this and should be commended for even trying to do something that no one else was willing to do.  I think the turnout for the informal gathering will still be respectable under the circumstances.  I hope so since I am still planning to attend.  What bothers me most is that some people just can&#039;t allow others to have a good time even when it&#039;s not something they themselves would enjoy.
