Quinns Says Goodbye
I regret to say that I must leave CTP. I have become much too busy to have any spare time at all to play or process the ratings.
I am in the following games:
R2_Islands -- Native Americans
Eagles at War -- Incans
Fixed World -- Assyrians
Team Horses -- Mongolians
Anyone wishing to take over these positions, please contact the other players in those games. None of them are bad positions, and a few are quite good.
In addition, I will not be processing the ratings any longer. Note that all of the player history and information exists in the report links. I hope someone continues with the updates. Sorry to have to leave.  It's been great playing with you all!

****.. You too huh? I've been extremely budy myself and have been thinking of dropping out of about half of my games so that I can keep up with the turns.
It was great playing with you Quinns.

So very sorry to see you go Quinns! You have done a great job setting up and running the 'ratings'. This site will be so much worse off without your input.
Good luck in all that you do in the future!!!!

Quinns you old robber - how do I now ever get to know, whether I'm among the better 10 players or really belong down where I am right now 
You - Saddam, Lung, Keygen, Swissy, Mobius with more - I know already what you are going to answer, so don't  !
Good luck with what ever you're going to do in future - and pls. visit us here from time to time .

I hope Steve, that you see the immense impact you have had on this forum, I for one am very upset that you are going, and I think we are about to find out just how much effort you put into keeping league play alive.... I am glad to see that you will be carrying on with a couple of the PBEM games, and I will be always looking forward to the moments you can get online for a quick internet game.
I promise me and Blackice will continue your good work, and carry on evolving the league in both PBEM and Internet play.
I proprose a toast to Quinns, an exceptional guy who devoted much of his free time to making Apolyton CTP the place it is! Cheers Quinns, and please stay in touch

Really sorry to hear that. Quinns, may I thank you for realising my idea of PBEM Ratings. When it all started, a year ago, I could not even imagine I'll ever see a man with such an amazing devotion. You put hundreds of hours in the ratings systen, and I humbly thank you for that. You will be remembered in the Call to Power community, and I hope to see you hanging around Apolyton sometime ago.
Many thanks for all you've done, we'll miss you, friend!
Gavrushka and Blackice, if you will be continuing the rating system, please contact me. I ask whoever continues it to contact me. If Apolyton email remains inactive, you can mail epochi@epochi.20m.com .
Thanks once again Quinns!

Love your work Quinns And you will be missed a great deal on the boards here. Hopefully you'll still get time to drop us all a line every now and then, or perhaps join us in the lobby sometime.

Well... Very much thanks for those great words!! That makes it even harder to go.
I leave the rating system in the responsible hands of Gavrushka, who has volunteered to do the updates and administer grievances. Please help him out if you can!
Farewell my friends! Until next time...

guilty feelings
Hi Quinns. sad to see you go.
I had just met you over the net last week for the first time, unfortunately you only had 30 mins.
I now have visions of you sitting in front of your computer, then I come on-line. Your head drops and you think to yourself "oh no it's Boney, time to get out of here". ' ' You can feel the latent potential of this player, and the feeling is one of fear. Even your screen began to flicker '  '. You knew it was time to go before the new king of ctp came to rule the roost.
Oh I only wish it was true.' '
All the best Quinns, you have been doing a great job, and appreciated by many. I hope you still keep in touch through posts every now and then.
