I say do whatever - I'm done.

This coin's been dead for too long.
Selfquote, this is what i wrote Andy aka Slimepuppy 4 months ago:

Hey Andi,

there's one thing that bugs me with catcoin:

According to http://catcoinwallets.com:2750/chain/Catcoin?hi=16499&count=500 the first 814.000 Catcoins were mined in 24 hours, with an appropriate starting diff and difficulty adjustment right at the beggining this wouldn't have been the case. Those 16279 blocks given an average block time of 10 minutes each would've taken 113 days instead to be mined if the difficulty parameters were adjusted appropriately. This was not the case and additionally the release of this coin was rather questionable (delayed start, only linux wallet available first etc).

Because of the rather scammy and shady altcoin releases in end-2013, I hoped to finally join a "fair" coin, a community coin. But instead I have the impression that again some smart boys snatched big chunks of the pie and don't even bother to get involved with the coin (no interaction in Catcoin thread, no faucets etc). I have the impression, that getting involved with this coin mostly benefits the clever early snatchers.

What's your take on this?

Hope to hear from you

And quite sadly, NONE of the original developers are involved in this coin any more.  I didn't get involved in this coin until around 3 months after launch, and by then, the damage was done.  If there is still interest from the community as a whole, then we can still try and pull this CAT back up.  I would like to hear from more of the community, not just one person.
