I must leave.

[steelehc]

I kinda knew this was going to happen, but I have been trying to put it off for as long as possible. My work, among other things, has caught up with me, and I have entirely too much to do. Something is going to have to go. Unfortunatly, that something is my post as Expansion Minister.

I would like to be able to continue until the elections, but I don't think that is going to be possible. I will support cannonfodder's candidacy fully, in the hopes that after I leave we will still have a capable Expansion Minister.

I will continue to lurk on the forums, and will post something if I get a chance, and when my current project is finished sometime in June, maybe I'll be able to come back.

Farewell

Steele

[Nimitz]

Bye hope you come back soon

[CannonFodder]

Well, that's too bad. No fun in not having any competition. Oh well.

I'll do my best to fill your shoes when the time comes, if noone else comes in and beats me.

[cavebear]

Hope you catch up on your work and return in June.

Thanks for your replies. As I said, I will try to come back whenever I get a chance. However, since I'm going to be doing some traveling, it won't be a regular occurence.

Fare thee well! Cursed jobs keep getting in the way of fun...

[Shaka Naldur]

Catch you on the upside, steele.

We await your return with patience.
