It's not about Blockland shutting down or dying "Let's just bring it back up" - it's the issue of keeping the community alive and knowledgeable of it being forgeted up. If Blockland dies that means that the community no longer has a common mean of meeting up & discussions - the Blockland Forums would be gone, and the master server likewise. In that context, even by setting up a new community with a custom master server & stuff like that, unless Badspot agrees on a last stand to link everyone to the community-driven game, it's guaranteed that pretty much the entire community will not even know what's going on, or about the new forum/master server. Considering the forum & community activity I'd say only about 500 players at most would be knowledgeable of the "new" game in a best case scenario.
