We have incorporated ourselves into the CCCP (Confederation of Cities, Communes and Protectorates)! The main reason for this is our activity level, which for a bit now has been fairly low. Each time I wanted to play civ, I felt obligated to work on Lumière in some way, and civ became to me like a chore instead of like a game.

=== Inactivity and Merger with the CCCP===
Starting in late July, inactivity in Lumière dropped heavily, until the only player that was regularly active was AmandaCC. According to her, because of this inactivity, the server started to feel like a chore and not a game, and she hoped that this merger with the CCCP would allow people to still play in Lumière while "diminishing the burden of governance and protection"<ref name=":2" />.
