What's that Qazox?

I can't hear you over the sound of the star above my badge.

You say 'bad' in a way that confuses me. Did you perhaps mean 'superb'?

Congrats to PI a last, commiserations to Audio. Also thanks to Cass and ES for hosting my 7th World Cup in which I did terrible in the Group Stage...

Hear, hear!

It's ok. He's not allowed into the Relevant Footballing Nations of Recent Times Club.

I get a strange feeling that you've been holding that pun since you created the nickname.

Congrats to PIS on a well-deserved Championship

and then...

It has been nearly four years since I made my return to NS. Over that time I Have come to know many of you really well and consider this hodgepodge community of all types to be a second family for me. Thus it saddens me to announce my retirement from NS. As so many have before me, I know that I will return one of these days. It’s just that right now I have several RL issues that need to be settled such as a new career and a big move on the immediate horizon. Most important to me is finally getting my head back in place to finish the novel I have been working on for what seems like forever. It seems that when I sit down to write I think more of RP for here than of my book before I get disgusted with myself and put a minimal effort into both. I need to change that - for me. Writing was never a chore for me and I hate feeling that it is now. And so I must go for a while at least.

I respect and admire too many of you to name, yet Star and Arch seem to stand out in my mind. Thanks to all of you for making this never-was-supposed-to-be-awesome game what it is. I’ll see y’all on the flip side.

PS – don’t go doing anything crazy like letting Qazox win a Cup until I return and get one for myself.

This is an entirely justifiable decision, whilst a sad one to read. As the fact I once compelled enough to make an image of Mace for an RP of mine shows, your influence on this place has been clear to us all.

Quick, someone else create a really tall flag so my Effed headers remain interesting.

Take as much time as you need and we'll be here waiting when you return. Qazox isn't going to win a World Cup until World Cup 100 in 2022, so there's no need to worry about that.

I haven't been an NS Sports regular for anything near four years, but anybody can read a sig. Awesome job in this forum. Good luck, hope you can come back soon (don't rush it though).

[Bears Armed]

Congratulations to PIS.
My thanks to Cass and ES for hosting...
... and to Valanora as CoH host, too.
"Good luck" to ASMV.

and win World Cup 68 at a canter.

Swapping your current squad for a Pony line-up?

Damn, the only person (pick one: sane, crazy, willing, stupid) enough to bid with me to host the World Cup will go. You will be missed again man.

[Cassadaigua]

Best wishes with everything, ASMV.

[Vaugania]

Good luck to you, ASMV. You will be missed dearly. Let us know when that book is out. I'd be interested in reading it.

[Emperor Bostonland]

I lol'd.

Seconded.
