From Ben

Hey everyone, just wanted to apologize if my message about TOT hurt anyone’s feelings. I acknowledge that my feelings regarding the topic may have been targeted toward some people. I still want you all to keep writing your stories regardless of my departure from TOT. I genuinely believe all your stories are fun to read and while there may be some flaws I will always be there to help you all. Also remember to write for fun. Even if one person may not like how a story works a bunch others (yourself included) probably will. TOT was fun to write for a bit, but in the end it was more of a chore to me than it was genuine fun.

A lot of people in the Crossover Council discussion have stated that they want to end TOT now too. Some people include Wyvernian, Sylveevee (on DDEX), I think even PrimalApex. Plus a majority of people agree that we should all focus on our own stories, especially PrimalApex and MrGhostGamer. We have all agreed that the Heroes VS Villains arc will be the ending of TOT and to be honest I don’t think there’s any objections to this??? Correct me if I’m wrong. I will be writing TOT chapters until the end. We still aren’t sure how exactly the Heroes VS Villains arc will end though and how it will end TOT, just know it will.

As for future collaborative projects a majority of people have agreed that “crossovers” involving our characters will probably be more detrimental that we think. Especially with such a huge team, it will cause more problems than be fun to write. It may be fun to have the characters to interact with one another ultimately it just stresses too many people out.

Discussions for an original collaborative project with original characters has also been thought out as a potential idea, however I do not see this being a thing in the foreseeable future. It will also be much much more work than the aforementioned crossover collab. I also am not sure what it would even be about. It would be helpful though since I’d imagine we can set boundaries for the characters and they would be capable of doing (powers are probably a no go).

Anyway once again I’m sorry for my outburst, especially for Sylveevee and Sunny and Wyvernian.
