UPDATE/ERROR? : www.acheron.us/play.htm www.acheron.us/play.htm
Strange thing, the link to collectivedetective.org has been removed. The only link left is to Unfiction, and the text on the page was rewritten as if there was only one site here to begin with.
Is there something going on that I don't know about?

Yes Dishboy there is something going on. A feud between the PM and management at CD. It's unfortunate that their hostilities can't be kept out of the game.

To everyone's surprise, I third it.
There should be no reason why the players at cd.org should feel that they are not included in the grand scheme of things because the management of cd.org and some of the PMs are having squabbles. Even if those arguments have been long-standing ones, it's now time to suck it up and get on with things.
I feel sorry for the players who are stuck in the middle of this. The Acheron admins should know damn well that they can't force a player to play on one board or another. To see this recent development is certainly disappointing, unless it is truly an oversight on the PMs part.
I suggest that those players playing through both boards (or those playing cd.org boards exclusively) that are reading this message should write to adminSPLAT acheron.us and let them know how you feel. Open the dialogue and make sure that you let the 'powers that be' how you feel. I can only hope that those powers make the right decision.

a hearty amen from this corner. I didn't realize this was a partisan game. That leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Sixth.
And, just to be a smartalec, I'll quote Peter Gabriel:
How can you be "in" if there is no outside?

Have to add my "seventh" to it as well. Right now it is making me wonder if the people who are not part of this board at least in part are going to be excluded from this game.

I'll be "eighth" then, since, like kona and others, I've been a proud member of both brown and blue.

Hatfields and McCoys MK, I don't know what the feud is about either,
but add my name to the list of peeps that think excluding those who through no fault of their own have ended up in the middle is not something that rational people should be doing.
Open message to the PM's for Acheron:
I am having a great time playing, but holding a grudge leaves a bad taste in everyone's mouth.

Can't we all just get along?
Thanks,

The PMs have posted the rationale for their decision:
