With DCM offline atm, I got no place to post this other then here. And I hate to bring such bad news... but what can ya do (hold onto that).

"Notice for Terminating "F355 Challenge" network service on Dreamcast.
December 29, 2005

Thank you for your continued support on Dreamcast software "F355 Challenge".
We unfortunately decided to close network service oｆ "F355 Challenge" due to technical issue. It will no longer be available on January 16, 2006 noon (Japan time).

We really appreciate your long-term support on this service.

From the sounds of it, looks like no one wants to spend the fund to repair the server, since any tech issue can be resolved. Such BS, someone should make a petiton and inform Sega of Japan with a letter to their support staff attached to the petition.

This shit pisses me off, how can Sega do this... I mean my god, how fucking lazy are they

A sad day indeed.

You should start a petition Joe_news, like when you tried to save the US PSO servers. Might not do any good, but you'll never know if you don't try.

I would, but with DCM offline I kinda lack a home base for any such petitions
