Part of delaying the market is so we have time to review how we're approaching research (e.g. location scouting), and taking time to try to anticipate potential issues. We're going to be exploring other methods of crowd control, and will be polling in Discord and other socials to see what is best.

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN FOR COMING!

There were definitely hiccups, but it was still a fun time for us, and we hope that you also enjoyed it! We're not hosting any more markets in 2025 as the schedule's proving to be unsustainable, so we're planning our next one to be late January/early February '26!
