OUT OF CHARACTER BOARD

[GM Jimmy Gooch]

Uhhh the rest of us still love this game, don't let Gooch get you down.

It shouldn't. I'm a nobody with an opinion against the norm. I'm glad you guys have fun. We messaged and it was fine. Nothing serious.

If you want to use this as a rally around Ian moment, that's fine.  But he's hardly heartbroken. I'm not much to shed tears over here.

Hey folks just a message passed to me from Strike via Skype.

He won't be online for a bit due to some real life stuff going on, so if you're trying to reach him and don't get a response, that is why.

[Ian "Wolfie" Trumps]

Lads due to a lack of time, passion, drive, time more than anything else I am going to have to hault my involvement with the FBL game as its moderator. I really firstly want to apologize for that, but I am having to put my own priorities first and its just become too hard to justify the time in this. When it becomes a chore...then its a chore.

I would love to think the likes of Jon, Strike, Pancho etc. guys who really went that extra mile outside the game will be able to form something off the back of this. In fact they will probably do a better job than me!

Anyway, bit of a shit message to leave, but hey, I'd rather be up front with you all than do a disappearing act. I really appreciate you all that played the game it was great to see a concept of mine got so much love.

All the best to you all and thanks again for playing.

[Jon]

It was a good run. Thanks Ian.

[Talon]

Well I know a guy...

[GM Franchise]

Thanks Ian. It was fun while it lasted. 

[TimBucktuo]

Ian

Are you open to have someone (not I) run it in your stead or is it folded?

[Gravedigger]

At least I didn't get fired... WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

[Gravedigger]

It was a good run. Thanks Ian.

On a serious note, this....

[Cory]

Thanks for the time and effort in doing this Ian, Cheers.

We've seen what happens when Jon tries to run a game. #OTAY!

Nevertheless, thanks for the fun Ian.

LONG LIVE THE HOCKEY SIM!!!!!


but yes, Ian you're game was challenging, unpredictable, and addictive.  I was able to walk away from e-fedding, and most of us have, but not many walked away and didnt come back to FBL.

Tip of the cap, you innovated a new wave of fun games.

If there's any spin-off, shotgun on a spot.
