BISCUITS. Now that I have your attention...
« on: June 20, 2013, 02:26:36 PM »
I feel I should explain the reasons behind my sudden and extended leave of absence from GTM.
 
To start with, I was getting pretty close to a building wall. That is to say, I was running quite low on ideas, and I really wasn't sure where I could take my bot building next. I'd achieved a reasonable amount of success, and I'd like to think moved building along slightly. Nothing like guys like Click or Sage have, but perhaps I contributed a little to bot building in general. Tournaments, I think, were either starting to dry up around that time as well, or they weren't particularly intriguing in general, perhaps building overall was doing the same, so there wasn't the same incentive for me to build. A number of other things were taking up my time as well, which included but were not limited to college, family matters, and my now ex-girlfriend. In short, I basically just ran out of motivation and time to stick around, so I disappeared. I understand that it was quite sudden, and I left quite a lot of work behind with my Tournament Mod position. I'll completely understand if I'm stripped of that, but I will hopefully be sticking around here again, but perhaps not quite so much as I used to.
 
Besides, I can't find that picture, but one does not simply leave GTM. =)

Okay, have your damn biscuits. One of them has sauteed ants in it. Take your pick.

Ah, so you were able to break off from her? That's good to hear, she sounded like a real control freak.

Considering the odd chance of being bludgeoned by hammy Frenchmen with pool cues, that's where helmets come in handy.   :dumb)
