I don't know why exactly I'm writing this, maybe it is because I've finally realized in my mind that BW - or the BW I knew - has come to a close.

First of all I got to say, TL.net is by far the most awesome nerd-community I've ever seen, so many awesome people contributing quality material - everyone who ever wrote a news in this page deserves an instant boner for doing so because that just means you're damn sick at what you're doing.
Broodwar is the best game ever made, TL is the best gaming-site ever made.

Recently, I've been a little bit more of a lurker on TL again as my BW-career came to a close and I feel I'm not good enough in SC2 yet to really contribute a lot - but I still appreciate TL as much as ever.

Because of that I decided to unburrow quickly and just thank everybody that has been playing SC:BW with me, I could now thank about a hundred of persons specifically and tell you a tale bout each and everyone of them, but those people know who they are anyway!
I just never thought that I could ever have so much fun in computergame, meet so many friends all over the world and actually even get to see some of them on the other side of the world.

There's a lot of old friends that probably do not play SC2 right now, so this goes out especially to you: Thanks for everything my fellow nerds! Thanks for the hours spent playing, chatting or even nerdraging with me. And to those who play SC2 - stfu, why do you even read this, you'll see me there anyway?
I'll thank YOU when I'm done with SC2.

Everyone who's been playing BW for as long as I did will probably understand why SC2 just won't never be the same for me.

That being said... SC2 ain't that bad after all!

I did not even play remotely as long as you, but even for me sc2 will never be what bw was. still sc2 is fun (and i can kick your ass at it xD)

Inputting special characters into chat should no longer cause the game to crash.

Well, don't know what else to say but good luck ^^

I hope you find comfort in the fact that if you decide to come back to play some BGH with us, we'll be there!

Yea I know, I will surely come occasionally but I always told you it's quite not the same thing as low money to me anymore. Even tho I obviously never forgot where my roots are!

Chosen here. Thanks for the Koth's, with both yourself and David. Thanks for allowing me to add ek at the end of a word and know what it means. I know its not for me, being in SC2, but <3 Patek
Team LiquidUnderneath it all they were really quite nice. They just got screwed up. Mostly by stuff that wasn't entirely their fault.

I really enjoyed your PvZ, as your style was suiting me very well and I tried to mimic it in my low level play. All hail BW pros! Good luck in whatever you'll end up doing.
