ahhhh memories
as much as I believe CoTBG is the bread and butter of SCP lore, it just doesn't work on SCP RP. Everyone says its the fault of the playerbase, but it isn't - the group is just too boring to do - there's too many limits.
I mean sure, you can make cog statues, praise mekhane or WAN or whatever the fuck you wanna label him as, no matter which sect, you'll end up reaching a brick wall.
You have players who spend hours reading the lore, like myself, and just run out of ideas. We did all sorts in my Cogwork Orthodoxy, from building bases, raiding foundation, creating wars with IJAMEA (hehe) and other numerous GOIs, building statues, publishing lore in the discord, and then after about a month and a half, the group went inactive.
I know I'll get replies saying "Yeah but you abandoned it lolololol!", but while I did give ownerships to other people, I still observed the group, and I was the one still trying to get changes.
Maybe you can do better Bill, but I doubt it, no offense. (nothing on you, just many have tried, and all have failed).
Perhaps CoTBG could work with a GOI rotation, or something, but it heavily relies on sarkics to function, if sarkics die, this dies too, and probably vice versa.
Sorry Bill

edit: also I ignored Fixer too, when he told me "don't suggest CoTBG, it will die" (obviously in more detail), I was like, nahhh it'll be fine, and exactly what Fixer said would happen, ended up happening.
Good luck.
