Hey Everybody, very serious message from le Creator of RACE
Please read carefully
As I'm sure some of you have noticed, RACE hasn't been very active lately
Part of that is my fault, I haven't been able to give it my full attention while being busy with moving and work in real life
However I think a big part of it is the fact that so few members visit the club
I mean we have nearly 2000 members.... maybe 20 active? total?
For a long time i was thinking about shutting down race and starting a new club with some new ideas I have
taking all the things i learned from RACE and moving on
MAL has changed since I first joined, most of my original friends are super busy and rarely around
But RACE and mal are still important to me so I have a different plan
A few people helped me come up with the idea so this is what's going to happen.
We're purging RACE.
You won't be able to access it. We're going to close it for a few days
Everyone in the members list will be removed
All the threads deleted (almost)
Everything will be started over. We will start over with a smaller club and staff
I have a lot of cool ideas for what is going to happen.
For those of you that are wondering about the sports festival
It wasn't as active as we'd hoped so we closed it.
The sports fest was my way of seeing if race can still be active and it failed
So now we're purging.
When we open back up there will be a new and improved Sports Festival!
It will be the Grand Re-Opening of RACE
please come back if you still love race like i do and want to be active
This isnt meant to punish the people that are around, or even the ones that arent
This is my decision
I need a reason to get excited and motivated again and I think this is the best thing for RACE We will be Re-Opening on August 1st
Thanks for everything you guys!
See you in a few days!
Hello Fabulous member of RACE!! Thank you so much to Ayame_Rin for helping me send this out x_x
i think i would seriously die if i did it myself ._.
I really wanted to send it out but omg 1631 people @_@
*bows deeply* please know i wanted to send this to you in person and its from my heart conveyed through this beautiful person I'm really sorry to not be sending out individual messages to you all, but unfortunately I don't know all of you ... and im lazy x'D
BUT i made this Valentines Day Event in order to get the chance to tell people how much they mean to me :)
Every single person in RACE means so much to me, I'm so happy you joined the club even if you aren't active (though you should be :P)
It means so much that you've stuck with me even when the club died for a bit.
I never imagined that my club would get so big. When i first started it I was hoping to even get 10 people. 20 was beyond my wildest dreams xD Now I'm above 1600!! I opened it just because i had joined mal and seen cards and wanted to try.
I probably shouldn't have made the club as early as i did .... but now I am so glad that I did C: Thank you to everyone that has joined the club, it's been such a pleasure to me watching the club grow and seeing the new people join.
Especially thank you to the people that joined at the very beginning. I'm not giving you a special message because i dont have time but I know who you are and you mean the world to me <3
Thank you all for joining my family ^^ And I hope you'll stick with me for much longer ^^ You're all the best C:
And Happy Belated Valentines Day!!

-- The Drawings will be posted in a gallery in the club as a special Happy Birthday for RACE

We also have random editions opened occasionally by the card makers

Upcoming things to look forward to?
+ Sports Festival
-- Lots of you were around for the last one so you know how much fun it was!
-- We will have a variety of competitive games and lots of prizes!
-- It's a great way to be active and make friends if you can't find anything fun on MAL at the moment! XP
+ Assassins Teams
-- Just like assassins where you get assigned a target and have to kill them without them noticing, but this time with teams!
-- Coming soon!
+ 30 Days of Anime!
-- Each day there will be an anime question for you to answer! Something like Favorite Male character, saddest anime, or favorite OP

-- At the end of the 30 days, those people who participated every day will get a special prize!
Help RACE get Active again!
We've gathered a really great and talented staff that are fun to talk to and who are amazing at keeping the club active!
Come hang around, stop by the Chatroom and talk to people, chat in the club comments, play the games, request cards, have a blast!
I'm really sorry that RACE went inactive for so long, it was due to many of my staff going on hiatus and my own health and school problems causing me to have to be innactive as well. But we're back with an active staff and lots of fun ideas for the future! It would mean so much to me to have the club active again ^^ When I go through past threads and the member lists I see so many names that I used to see around and dont anymore. I miss you guys! And I want to get to know all the new people ^^ RACE is my family and I want it to be a family for all of you as well C: So please help me make RACE's birthday an awesome one by joining the drawing event and helping the club get more active than it ever has before!
