An announcement of resignation by one of your crazed overlords

[deandestroyer.livejournal.com]

Hey folks. There are some changes a-brewing here on the admin team, conveniently timed to coincide with the end of the summer semester, and the others were kind enough to let me step up and make an announcement first.

Effective this weekend, I'm stepping down from the admin team. I've been planning this for a few months now based primarily on a lack of time, but also because, really, how many assemblies can you organize before you just don't have any more assemblies in you? I'm not leaving the game, though. It'll take more than a lack of time to get me out of here completely. I put way too much into this place to leave anytime soon for any reason other than death, and even then I'm pretty sure you'd have to deal with ZombieNick apping Reg Shoe or something.

*quietly puts Reg Shoe from Discworld on list of characters to app*

Anyway, the main reason for this post - besides the useful announcement regarding a change in the admin team - is for me to say thanks. In the fifteen months I've been an admin (and the few months before that when I was but a lowly mod), I have done so many insane things in, for, and to the game that I have trouble believing that not only did I get away with it, but other people joined in my insanity each and every time. I mean, seriously, Flood Weekend. That was largely born out of illness and sleep deprivation on my part. I had a giant Krakel bar instead of a kraken! WTF WAS THAT? But people seemed to enjoy it. More recently, I ran a chocolate festival with dying chocolate bunnies. My fellow admins gave me permission to pull this stuff, but the rest of you gave me encouragement by playing along and not calling my local asylum. For that, I am forever in your debt. Especially since I can blame you guys for the insanity. "It's not my fault they liked the Krakel bar! The people clearly enjoy this stuff!"

This game has given me endless opportunities to get the weirder parts of my mind the creative exercise they so rudely demand and I truly appreciate that I was able to do that on such a large scale for over a year.

So, thanks to my now former colleagues who trusted me to do so many weird things (including writing the post where the school blows up! How's that for my RP resume?) and thank you to everyone else in the game who went along with those things. I won't forget them. Mainly because I'll be just over here, webbing things to other things and possibly putting them in Jello and you people won't let me forget them.

And thank you for letting me put up the longest resignation announcement ever, especially considering that I'm not leaving the game.

Thank you for everything, all the hard work, the craziness, the crack, but especially the Krakel Bar!

(I was going to make a Klingon icon just so this would be a truly Nick appropriate post, but I'm too lazy -- the thought was there, though!)

*Massive hugs, cheers, and thanks*

I am madly glad you're not leaving the game, and I hope being a player lets you get crazy in new and different ways. Your hard work and modly calm were always appreciated.

Please get your hand out of my pocket. You're a very nice person, but I just don't like you like that. You didn't even buy me dinner first.

[apocalypsesoon.livejournal.com]

Pffft. That's not what you said last night. And I bought you dinner. What, you don't like White Castle?

[deandestroyer.livejournal.com]

I had leftover lasagna for dinner last night. Whomever you were with, it wasn't me.

My mom can vouch for that.
