FogBugz looked cool…but I had to use an old version of Bugzilla. I didn't know Glitch existed until this site had a notice that it Glitch would be shutting down. Surprised me FCS had anything to do with a game, and seems it wasn't a good fit. I like the style though, and downloaded some of the art and variations on the Groddle theme before it died.
