@samkhk

Maybe start a petition to bring it back? I'm sure it would still be a popular game.

Words cannot even describe how much I miss SiSSYFiGHT. BRING IT BACK.

@rotarydialz Yeah, I just found out that it was shut down. He could instantly make tons of money by putting it on Facebook. It's been 10 years since I played, but I still have fond memories of it. Makes me wonder if there's a way to contact him about it... Hm...
