Fall and the End of the Year

Beginning of the End

At this stage, we only have IJWTB players on the server, being active from June to July. However, as August rolled around, players had school starting up.

The Void of Fall 2016

Very few players joined during this time, with one exception being coolwhip810, a player Noor knew in real life. While Xandertron5000 and Cry were occasionally on, more often than not, we had days with zero activity. This persisted until December. As a result, Noor cared about the server less, leading to less maintenance, less advertising, and less players, onwards until no one was playing.

Christmas Time

Starting in early December, Xandertron, PiguBones (now Zipra), and Cry started playing again, restarting activity. Kami and word_girl also started playing as well, becoming daily players along with the aforementioned core IJWTB players.

Conclusion

The server had started solidifying a more loyal playerbase, where players play because they want, and not because Noor asks them to join. At this point, the server had started to establish its own culture.
