Thanks for the memories ...

My farewell league didn't quite turn out as I planned with my team falling short of expectations (mine) and missing the playoffs. As always HAL had the final say and in my case, the last laugh.

With no more active teams, I won't be on the boards much if at all. But, I wanted to say thanks for the memories, many good, some bad, but all in all a worthwhile experience.

I started at the tail end of ATG 1 and 500-600 teams later, I feel compelled to walk away for a variety of reasons.

What I will miss the most is the host of wonderful people (past and present) who I have gotten to know over the 10+ years and have come to consider my ATG friends.

Hopefully, I left a positive mark on the game for a few people.

Take care one and all.

Farewell and thanks for the fine competition! Sad to see a lot of the strong players moving on these days but I hope to see you again at some point.

Maybe even scars from the beatings!
Nah.
Your contributions to the game are unassailable and appreciated.
Don't say never or forever.
Predictions are tough. Ask Max or Cristano.
You may have to do a comeback league! Fair skies and following seas...

Rich-
you are one of the very best.
from the very beginning, I always signed up to be in leagues when I saw you were there, as I learned a whole
lot by seeing what you did.
I thoroughly enjoyed being in leagues with you, having conversations both on the boards and otherwise, and marveled at how highly competitive your teams were.

I have been with online STRAT since ATG1, and you have my highest level of respect.

Best to you Rich.

ive been in a few leagues with you and it was always competitive..I too am stepping away even though I have 10 credits to burn ...I just dont believe everything is up and up in this game and whether Im right or wrong I cant continue feeling like theres more to it who wins or looses...I will be back after the current MLB season to use my credits but I will not be purchasing more
