Guys I can only tell you what I know, which is that although I haven't had a response from him on here or via email for nearly 2 weeks, he's booked ongoing advertising and sponsorship deals well into the future, which would seem to suggest that HYPER is viewed very much as a long-term project. As aboody94 says I think it's a case of real-life taking over for a while (it happens to all of us now and then!) - just hope it's nothing too bad / serious.
Thanks TeamDisaster. This is pretty much the case. Just been very busy in real life! I am still 100% committed to HYPER and I am making many long term sponsorship and advertising deals to make sure HYPER is THE gaming crypto for long into the future
I apologize if my absence of 1 week has worried anyone. Coin development is a more than full time job, and the only HYPER I have is HYPER I bought when it was much cheaper than it is today. It's not like I get a regular salary. I can say with confidence that as a gaming cryptocurrency HYPER has the most extensive ecosystem out there and will continue to grow on into 2015.
So if I am gone for a week or so in the future do NOT panic! Maybe better to just buy cheap HYPER when weak hands sell their stack I will be posting a big news update later today! We also have some big HYPER news articles about to be published and a lot of projects in the pipeline as usual. I am also, as usual, spending some more of my personal BTC on some more HYPER advertising campaigns.The gaming competitions to be paid out is the responsibility of the people managing those competitions, and they should still be paid out whether I am here or not
I have contacted Falcon regarding the Rust competitions, as far as I am aware they are the only ones that haven't been paid? There is one pending withdrawal from the Counter-Strike server, as the server has become very popular, very fast. We will need to lower payouts in future to keep it sustainable.
Also in case anyone missed it HYPER is sponsoring the development of TeamDisaster's awesome Troll Song game. This means HYPER will be the official sponsor on the development blog, website, and also in-game through a screen that pop ups letting people know HYPER has sponsored its development This was one of my dreams with HYPER, to help sponsor indie game development and I am really happy to see this taking shape. The more HYPER is worth, the more games we can sponsor (as well as work on the main Space MMO). So to support future work just buy HYPER HYPER is now also sponsoring the development of retro adventure game Troll Song
The full game will be a commercial release with five "Verses", the first of which has recently been released as freeware to help advertise the game.
StoryTroll Song aims to tell the story of trolls as a people, a culture, a society. The trolls are under threat of extermination, but although they're big and strong, these trolls are no mindless brutes - they are a simple but honourable people with their own sense of morality and honour; a people who have feelings, who develop friendships; even a people who make music. Well, a sort of music...
For the four trolls who manage to survive the attempted trollicide, it's not simply a matter of staying alive, or even a matter of revenge - for you see, to find out what their future can be, they first have to learn about their history - the very origin of their race.
You play as Clod, one of the trolls who manages to escape. Using your trollish abilities, you must also help your remaining friends to escape. Before your journey continues you will find an unlikely ally, and along your path of discovery, you will find out that Clod is not just an ordinary troll... he has a destiny.
Troll Song is a point and click adventure designed to be unique while still reminding players of those old classic LucasArts games that we used to love (and in fact still do).
