I could type up an essay about it if people really want to know wtf happened between last summer and the spring.I really liked Brawl+ a lot when I played it a year ago (before the "gold" codeset). Did people just stop caring about it or something?
That would be coolI could type up an essay about it if people really want to know wtf happened between last summer and the spring.

There was a string of successions among the lead developers of Brawl+.
One by one a leader would lose interest or fail to have enough time to devote to the project.
At one point in time we had guys like Shanus, Shell, and etc. There was a lot of dissatisfaction with where the game was going, and really nothing was being done to fix community complaints.
So what happened was a total take over by Cape. He basically took charge of the project on his own authority and released his own set (codename GSH for Get Sexy Here) which would soon become the norm upon its public release. Along with that came a new team of people to head the new direction for B+. Soon we would see GSH2 in development with a whole new cast behind it (myself included).
Cape basically couldn't keep up with everything. Life exists too, you know. After him we saw Veril take control. And of course after Veril came Blind, who because of his own limitations couldn't be a social member of the community.
Now in general the views of the public were that Cape was a dictator, Veril wasn't that much better and had a fuse as short as Cape, and honestly not much could be said about Blind because of his own limitations to post on the board as well as the period of B+ that he took over in.
Now Cape was a necessary evil, to say. Was he a dictator? Not really, but at the same time he wasn't using the same kind of democracy that lets the PMBR get so much done. A lot of things were done because of how the Cape felt, and at times BR members didn't even know about the changes unless they spoke with Cape personally. But on the bright side we got things done.
Veril came along at a time of a lot of public upheaval. People were giving constant complaints about changes Cape made while in charge. Pros wanted a stable set, and the lack of such led to some pros leaving the game. So how can you please those who wanted changes to problems and the pros who wanted no changes? Poor compromises. Then to make things worse we had to deal with leaks, and constant raging among the members. Around this time is where PM really picked up steam as well. Many B+BR members were completely loosing interest in B+ because PM was the experience they were looking for in hacked Smash. I'm one of those people who just stopped caring about B+because I enjoyed PM more.
Veril left, and I can't be certain as to why. Personal reasons, on top of being too busy (I think he was/is a nursing student) I believe were why. He left things to Blind. No offense to Blind as he is a good guy, but he didn't really have what you need in a leader of a dying project. He was basically given all of the problems that Veril and Cape created/had to deal with, and had to deal with PM even more than Veril. I officially left the B+BR during this time, so from this point on I have absolutely no idea what happened.
This was many months ago, so somebody else would have to address Blind's ascension to leader to present.
Wrong. The same developmental team that was in the B+BR worked with Cape on GSH. There was no real "split" just a major change in direction.To my understanding, the Brawl+ BR were basically divided around the GSH time period. On one side was Shanus, SHell, and the rest of the now PM guys, and on the other Cape, Veril, Blind, etc. These two sides didn't see eye-to-eye, and the drama ensued, and Brawl+'s rep was heading down the tube. Meanwhile, Shanus had been hard at work doing a side project for a good while, and when the poo hit the fan, Shanus and friends went on to work on Shanus's secret project. For the longest time, no information was disclosed, but we new something awesome was in the works. For the longest time.. we only knew the phrase "hype m." Within time, their secret project would become the highly anticipated "Project Melee."
something i've never understood;The transitions in leadership. When Cape decide to go lone wolf, and take over Brawl+, he basically set the project on course for failure (actually... no.. it was always doomed. As you'll come to find by my other points).
No. He just got many of the members of the existing team to try his set, helping him out etc. It was the consensus "superior" set, so it stuck.something i've never understood;
how exactly was he able to completely take over operations on his own? did he have some kind of special authority over the previous leaders of the project (whoever they are)?
I stand corrected.. However, I was more or less talking about the guys who split for PM.Wrong. The same developmental team that was in the B+BR worked with Cape on GSH. There was no real "split" just a major change in direction.
pretty muchLol so project m started as just a melee falco pac? Thats kinda funny.
man why you gotta be like thatShouldn't the title of the thread be Adieu, not Viva?
