Well, Kutthroats. These past few weeks have been extremely disheartening. Watching as our campaign and our (indeed it is ours!) ballot go out on such a mighty note, support and fan art and Miiverse posts abound with confidence and positivity ... Only to watch things slowly wane. And dwindle. And sputter out in to silent confusion... Has left me feeling somewhat disillusioned.
I feel ignored, and perhaps that is selfish, but Nintendo sought to rally us up with an Internet fanboyism campaign. They knew the fervent devotion and insanity that would result in granting every kid on the Internet's dream (and now some of us adults who once wanted a chance to do just this!) yet in spite of our vocal plight - and indeed, of all the other candidates' fanbases loudness - here we are bereft; some of us even feeling a little betrayed.
As much as I hardly post, if we don't get any news by Sunday, I'll be sailing my ship to ground until there *is* something news related to discuss. I'm just wasting too much time refreshing two pages and various Twitter accounts to maintain my sanity at this point.
You're all great, the most respectable fanbase for a new character by far - I look forward to the day we can sit here and loop the K. Rool trailer together for hours.
