Also, just been reading Carl Woodrows blog on the current state of Epic.
Speaking as someone who gets a lot of PM's, Epic's never been healthier.
Nor has the UK tournament scene, which is repeatedly pulling in decent numbers, with a NetEA rules tournament earlier this year marking Epic's largest tournament in the last 5 years.
Some faces may have left Epic, but there are a lot of new ones too.
I'd agree with this, EpicUK tournaments have been growing in number - 5-6 years ago double figure was brilliant now 20 is a regular occurence with many events selling out, massive interest in forum-ware (80% of PMs I've had are from non-active board members), lots of interesting modelling projects on TC etc. If there is one area where traffic has dropped its list development - most people I know who stepped back from that said they were fed up with there being no end result and rehashing the same debate every year with no conclusion in sight.
Lots of big posters have gone from development, but not epic, and I imagine if you step in once in a while, as I get the impression Carl does, then it does seem like things have dropped off when they don't see the old names
