Your efforts are greatly appreciated Elric, and to the other AH members/officers as well who take leadeship roles to make AH raids possible. Jobs well done.

I should expand a bit on this.

Wwein and Laenyani left for Ireland August of 2009. Noone else in leadership was able/willing to step up and lead, so I did.

2 years and a few weeks later, I found myself dreading raid nights, not looking forward to logging in. After seeing Aleax leave GM, and telling him I support whatever he does to keep enjoying the game, I realized I have to follow my own advice.


Hence my leaving SI and moving to RoV. (sorry SI folks, I will always count you as friends, and I thank you a LOT for tagging me in July). Basically I found out RL will allow me to log in earlier, and 5 nights a week sounds great with RoV.

But being forced to log in, form raid, take dump, lead/help lead events, take dumps, try and recruit, manage disagreements, deal with 5 open tell windows when shuffling, etc, all got to be too much. The only events I've not form/led/helped lead was when I was in the VA hospital last summer. In 2 years, 1 week off. Sorry folks, but I can't go on like that.

I'm not asking for your pity, but rather explaining why I did what I did.


I'll continue to play, and continue to help when I can.

AH is a bunch of GREAT folks, and will continue


BTW, those of you willing to step up, now is the time to do so
