no sweet talk, I'll just be very blunt. I've been slacking behind as Gaming Tribune, and basically since I got the tournament duties again. I'm not going to let that go on any further. it's taken me more then 3 weeks now to finish the tournament stuff, which is unacceptable. therefore, Jac and Kir recieved my resignation as Gaming Tribune today.

also, my appologies on the lack of scores. I've messed up, plain and simple. I didn't back up the file I've been working on. last night, I went to work on something else after putting some work in it, saved.. and realized today that I've saved over the wrong file. so now, ST.xls contains my 'worked hours' list from work.. 2 weeks of work, poof, gone. moral: backup your stuff. always.

no, I am not resigning PCON and LHoJ. just Gaming Tribune. I figured I could better do less things right, then more things half-arsed.

furthermore, applications for Gaming Tribune are now open. I'll be honest, you'll now be dealing with my mess from three weeks. I'll send you any relevant documents I still have, but you'll have to go from there.

basically, whoever gets the job will be in charge of the gaming stuff in the DB. send applications to Jac, Kir, and me. applications close on the 10th. I'll be assisting the selected person for as long as needed, so you won't be completely in the dark.

finally, it's been fun. and I'm not gone. I'll be around still. I just don't have the time to deal with Gaming Tribune, PCON, LHoJ and a full-time job all at once, so one had to go. time for fresh blood.

note: no, I am not quiting because I got discouraged by a loss of work. I am quitting because I am slacking, and will not have that. I simply don't have the time for so many things anymore. I'll also get the backlog of CF's worked through tommorow, but the tourneys will be up to someone else.
