This is both a letter of apology and of announcement. I was called, approximately 2 weeks ago, to Portugal for an academic opportunity which I could not pass up. I had to leave quickly and during a time when internet options were limited. While I was in Portugal I had no internet connection whatsoever. However this left me with the problem of up and going without being able to contact many people (in and out of the game). So here is why I made this message.

I would like to apologize to those in the community who have not heard from me and probably simply assumed that I quit. I would most like to apologize to Alan Steele and Sam. I have not abandoned the Pirates and I had no intention of leaving my position as GK EM. Both of my tags still seem to work, so I assume I have not been let go from either of the positions. I also would like to apologize to the GK populace as there have been complaints of a lack of events, a part of which can obviously be faulted to my two week disappearance. Also, I am sorry to the forum goers who have had to go two solid weeks without my constant postings. I hope to pay all of your psychiatric bills, since you have most likely suffered some serious depression during this time.

Hopefully I can get back into the habit of hosting events, ravaging the high seas, and owning VT without too much trouble. Glad to be back.
