Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

what happened to block miner?

if any of you wonderful humans remember the old everybody edits site, there was an array of similar games at the top of the site, in a bar like layout.
within this array of similar games, i came across block miner, and it was fantastic.
the game is based off of terraria, and minecraft, which is very clear to see from the name, 'block miner', and the gameplay it held.
after a while this "array of similar games, in a bar like layout", got removed for an unknown reason, and along with that removal went 'block miner'

just a few minutes ago, i went back to block miner, only to find out the site had changed slightly, and the game was gone.
not actually gone, just stuck on a "100%" screen, and i only can assume / guess the game has closed down, as you can see from the image i have provided;

(yes, there is a "play solitaire" button. i went to the site and it's just as it says)

i have very good, vivid memories of block miner, and it's sad to see the game close down, but that happens.
i do have an array of questions if any of you can answer them:

what happened to block miner?
why has the game closed down?
who made block miner?
is there any way i could reach out to them to bring back the game?

Re: what happened to block miner?

well, apparently the owner of the game died in a car/motorcycle crash or something and his brother had been running it

Re: what happened to block miner?

The page you mention which used to be at the website top bar still exists. It's a page with a lot of nostalgic games, some of them still up such as Vortex Wars, ShellShock Live and Curve Fever: http://funny.io/

And let's not forget about Nonoba, the best multiplayer game platform of it's time.

Where is the source? I mean, if you are posting this, we need source to prove it. If there is no source, that means you lied.
