<DIV>Everyone,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Just wanted to let you know that I have resigned from Strategicon. This is
for a number of reasons which I won't go into here, but I wanted you to know. In
a nutshell, when something is more like an unpaid job and no longer any fun, it
is time to get out. I actually tracked my time between Orccon and Gamex and I
spent just over 56 hours in preparing for the con in addition to the time
required to be working and not able to get into any games at the con from
Thursday to Monday. At this time, it is planned for Victor to take over the
Dealer's Room.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I will still be at the conventions. I plan on running events such as maybe
restarting the Warhammer 40K tournaments, the large scale General Quarters,
and even some old RPG formats I used to run in the 70's. Oh, and Rock Ridge will
always need to be defended from the Methodists at least once a year.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I look forward to seeing you all there and actually playing in a game or
two.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
