Minethings has a sequel! (in Off-topic)

Not sure who, but I'm pretty sure I found the original Minethings from somebody in CB back when both were active games. Minethings is hella slow on the surface, but an in-depth incriment-based niche strategy game kinda like another one we all know and love. It died out in the late 2-=teens. Attempts were made to keep it going, but they failed, and the site was closed.

It has apparently been revived a week or two ago. I found it yesterday, and I'm already third on the server for melds, and working on progressing. RNG-based finds, with a completely free market dictating the stakes. If you know of MT from before, then I need not convince you. If you've never heard of it, Check out minethings2.com when you get a sec.

Guessing those active amongst y'all never heard of it... it was a super slow-paced entirely PvP game, centered around a player-made and maintained market. New minethings seems to have NPC monsters on the routes and a faster pace. They're only a couple weeks in and still feeling things out. This is a chance to get in on the ground level of a freshly-developing game, with an active and interested developer.

It does have some major downsides though... The graphics are nearly nonexistent aside from still pictures, everything takes a "long time" by instant gratification standards, and almost everything worth doing requires a little bit of math and reading... I just know how much the CB crowd hates games like that xD

I also found a fresh new game that's only been launched for like 3 weeks as of this reply's creation. It's also a PvP-centric slow paced, persistent gains from training sort of game called Masked City. I am quite loving it, and obviously the developer is active since it's also very new.
