It was kind for Tig to speak for me, and for the most part he's right. But I'm not going to step down because someone who is no longer active in the game disagrees.

On top of this I need not remind everyone here the amount of damage Sam alone has done to Graal Kingdoms in the past with his fantastic equalization ideas - we can thank him very kindly for the decline we saw before the period of absence from the administration - the administration which was too proud to take even the most fantastic suggestions from myself, Tig, or anyone else on GK.

So really, Sam - you may be in the position to make decisions - but to be plain I don't think you're qualified and I believe your history here supports my belief. It's far too easy to walk into a situation you know very little about and make sweeping statements about things at face value - which is precisely what Sam is doing in this case. He has not been involved in the development administration in more than a year, and even when he was "active" it was never official. Ironically my suggestions were supressed for, literally, years because they said, "He is only a graphics artist, what does he know?".

So I'll let the players - who have suffered for nearly a year now in the absence of a administration who wants to sit in their chair doing nothing but make sweeping statements of something which they know little about - decide if they want me or tig to administrate this server. When they have decided, it is then the job of Graal ownership to decide - because the GK administration has been gone so long their opinions no longer seem to matter.
