Glad to see more from Windemere. I really like the first two farming scenes, nicely done.

It's been a while since I've looked through the cj forum... Good thing I didn't wait longer cause I stumbled upon a windemere update, about farming no less. A good day!

WINDEMERE ANNOUNCEMENT

 

As you may have noticed, since the launch of Holt District about a year ago, Windemere has been quiet. When I started Holt District I had every intention of eventually brining Windemere back to its former glory as an often-updated CJ alongside Holt District. But life has turned busier recently with a string of things going on that have taken their fair share of time. School keeps me busy. Work does too. And there are some other things which just add to the grind of RL. Windemere hasn't been the same since its change from Windemere & Taschereau to Feaumont. I guess you could call that a failed experiment. The current structure of Windemere is also facing its challenges that it did in its first 2 incarnations. The regions are disjunct and random.

 

Since progress on the region that is showcased for Windemere isn't really going anywhere, I have decided this: it is time to officially end Windemere. 

I'm sure this won't come as a surprise to many of you. Afterall, this hasn't been update since May and has been update at 2-month intervals for a while now. Out of the ashes of Windemere rose a new project, Holt District. It has been more successful than I ever imagined. It has turned into a great region and great fun, and I have so many ideas for it.  I'm sure you're also wondering why now. If Windemere has continued to this point with infrequent updates up to now alongside Holt District, why is it ending now. Well, like I said. And this is you clue. Out of the ashes of Windemere arose a great project. This project caused the hiatus and ultimate downfall of Windemere. And pulling the plug now might just mean something. I'm sure you can see where I'm heading with this. There IS a reason now is the time to the pull the plug. And you'll know soon enough why. 

 

Before I sign-off Windemere, I want to thank everyone who supported this CJ through its various format changes, lapses in activity, etc. in the almost 2 years (WOW!) since I launched it. This was my first ever CJ so it will always be sort of special. So there may be, even though Windemere is now officially over, a peep from Windemere occasionally. Just don't stay up night waiting for something. That's just a small possibility. I want to thank everyone who helped Windemere reach 661 comments and over 67000 views. Windemere was an absolute blast, and is really what launched my activity here in Simtropolis and the SimCity community as a whole. Without it, Holt District wouldn't have happened, nor would my own website. 

 

So thank you to all of you who made Windemere awesome! And I'll see you in Holt District. 

And possibly something new.
