    Get better Vel
    Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did Obi Wan's apprentice.

        It is very shocking news and so very sad. I only recently bought the SMAC guide, even though I no longer have the game.

        We were all looking forward to seeing what Vel would come up with.

        Hope that things turn around very soon for him.

                Vel, I hope someday you get the chance to read this thread and see how many people like you...
                You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

                      With losing hair and weight, it sounds like pancreatic cancer or something.

                          The only, THE ONLY reason I stuck around this forum when I first found it was because I encountered some very helpful, polite and positive people. It's very important to a newbie and I still remember it. Vel is the embodiment of the best a poster can be.

                          I hope he gets well soon.

                              That's what I'm afraid of.

                                I'm not sure of everything that is involved. A couple of weeks ago, we got the first post from Gil, who had gotten access to Vel's account info from Vel. Gil relayed to us that he was in the hospital with problems with his pancreas, and he said this was an issue that has bothered him in the past too. Gil said that it was nothing to worry about.

                                But then we got the post today. This sounds really bad. I really wrestled with posting this mainly because I wanted to respect Vel's (implied) desire not to have people worry about him. But Gil had gone ahead and posted the info - and Vel's impact on Apolyton is so much greater than just Candle'bre.

                                This site is his family too, and deep down, I think Vel would be greatly encouraged that so many people are thinking and praying for him during what may very well be a life-or-death crisis for him.
