I'm sorry.

Your request to retire has been denied.

We look forwards to your continued and indefinite efforts.

Regards,
Everyone.

My hope is one day stupid people will feel the same pain when they talk, as the pain the rest of us feel when we hear them. Twitter: @Legionnaire_au

Your formal letter of resignation is not accepted, formally. Seriously, 1/5 starred >:c

All serious though thank you so much for all you've done for this community and the passion you've put in. The team is going to miss you when you're gone, but hey you'll stick around just to dodge our grudge match over and over again

You might be the biggest dodger in SC history, but you're our dodger. <3 Lots of love and salute to our EiC. o7

Thanks for all the nice comments. TL community best community!

Currently working hard to find a cool capable replacement who will keep things moving forward. This shouldn't really affect how things get done, hopefully, so you guys can keep expecting the same great quality as always

lol @ "indefinite". Dang, this wasn't in the contract! It's all too late, Plexa accepted my resignation! :D
But I will certainly look forward to Legionnaire's "continued" map analysis efforts! :D

You realize I'm still EiC for another month-ish so I can still make your life hard for that 1/5!

ya, I'll miss working with you guys too <3

Like a water source, from clouds in the air,
Like a little kitten, he pounced on Legionnaire.

BigFan will BM by retiring,
But no, he will not retire from BM-ing.

Like a water source, from clouds in the air,
That is of course, out of the questionnaire!
