It is time...
As most of you know, and never let me forget, I haven't been performing up to par lately. I have always prided myself on my organization skills and my reliability, but lately the ability to organize has not been enough and I have not been as reliable as I would prefer. For whatever reasons my time has been such that I can no longer dedicate the time and energy to co-running a tournament of this size. It's not fair to you, the players, to have to put up with this lack of consistency. So, to that end, I have sent an email to Vesuvius informing him of my intention to step down as a Tournament Coordinator. There are many of you that I have truly loved working with and getting to know. Hopefully you know who you are. I would like to thank all of you for your continued loyalty and hope that you will continue to give it to Kitten in the weeks to come. I will continue my updates until Ves can find someone to replace me. Now this doesn't mean you won't be seeing me. I will be staying involved in the community in at least some small way and will still come to the zone to visit and maybe will even have time to play now! Thank you again and good luck to you all.

Things change, I agree, and things are going to be changing with me and MaH. You all will see soon enough, I may not be stepping completely down but I am stepping down to a point. The reason for my stubborness and not wanting to give up, is the same reason I know this is extreamly hard on raven to do, we both love heroes and love what MaH had became. I look back and see where we both could have done better, yes mainly me, and I am wanting to try and fix what has been broken and hopefully it can be done. I know things so many of you do not, and I do see great things coming to Mah/toh soon. I have faith in my skills, even though some of you do not. I am a damn good page desinger, if that would be all I could do I would be extreamly happy. Just be patient and wait and see thing will turn around for the best, just keep faith, in a game we all love so dearly.

let us pray
Kitten,I hope you are right. All tossing aside. I'm not sure if I have faith,but I want to believe there is light at the end of this tunnel.
To all who have read my posts as of late my appologies. Perhaps even though I am right about some things,there was no need to make such things personal. I guess I'm just frustrated that one of my favorite hobbies and favorite sites kind of fell to the wayside.
Even though tonight Kitten I felt like tearing you a new you-know-what (actually i think we did to eachother lol) I realized something when I left the zone. It's just a game. No money involved, no life changing rewards, just a game. Everything aside,be it mistakes by admin,mistakes by players,mistakes by vesuvius,mistakes by me...in the end its not worth getting all worked up over. I guess too I havent been my normal self because of personal issues,but thats not up for us to discuss today.
I hope also that little tidbit you told me about your RL was right Kitten. Its what a person in your position needs, get your bearings straight, its more important than a game or fun tourney ever could be.
Whatever happens in the next 24 hrs I hope is best for those of us left in the Hommunity. Whether that is anything from site closure to Vesuvius himself taking over, let the fates decide.
On another note. I think I should hand out another appology to all on behalf of myself and Ravyn for letting our issues spill over here. They werent the hugest to begin with,but in with both of us probably a little aggrivated it boiled over. I'm sure Ravyn would agree that's not like us.
Well,this was quite the long winded serious post (not my forte as you see   but a much needed one. Perhaps we all need to take a step back and realize this is all minute in scale compared to the big picture - in all of our lives.

I want to make one thing really clear. I did not choose to step down because I couldn't take the heat or anything silly like that.
From the beginning of this merger, I feel that I have done my part and done it well. In tournaments under my care, very few mistakes were made and updates were always done in a timely manner. I may not have been the most social person but my work was good. If I had less time to offer, which happens from time to time, then I ran fewer tournaments or limited them to brackets. I remember a good portion of time when I only ran Warlords, Ultimate Warlord and MapMasters and did a lot of admin work. Warlords games never come in mass quantities and MapMasters was a bracket with firm deadlines, easy to update. This was done because it was all I could handle. When I first set up clans, I had the time to do the updates. Had it not taken so long to get set up, we would probably be nearing finishing now. But my responsibilities at home have increased recently and I no longer have the time.
As Motor has mentioned elsewhere, we made a good team, along with Andi, and we got a lot done. Perhaps if other things would have been different, we could have kept that team together and made a real difference. But Motor and Andi got frustrated with the situation (not with me) and made the decision to leave. This was unfortunate. There is a part of me that truly wishes I had followed their example then. But I felt it was my duty to stick it out for you the players. Had I been sure that my leaving then would have ended up with the same end result as my leaving now, I would have done it long ago. But that was something I could not be sure of.
But all and all it has been a wonderful experience and I have learned much. When I started at Heroes Kingdom I didn't even know how to do any web work. I started out using Geocities Page Builder and worked up through Front Page Express, to Front Page and then on to Dreamweaver. I have even learned how to write some of it with just a text editor. I have gotten to know many people and made many friends. Thank you all and I hope to see you all soon

This Is Why I Love Heroes Community
Please ignore me if I annoy you guys. I can't help but feel the love in here. This is why I love Heroes Community. In this electric, geographically seperated, ions and pixels-place I find people. Not just any people. Here I find people who come together in honesty and comraderey. To wear one's heart on one's own sleave is to sometimes fall victim the world's cold shoulder. As we often find is the case a ravenous protesting mob will say things as according to its own driving raging hateful momentum. Momentum that is blind by all accounts.
----------------------------------------------------------
(Act3 Scene3)
Citizen: Tear him to pieces; He's a conspirator!
Cinna: I am Cinna the poet, I am Cinna the poet.
Citizen: Tear him for his bad verses, tear him for his bad verses!
Julias Caesar(William Shakespear)
-----------------------------------------------------------
Yet a spark of humanity from Tewilliger. And then the contagious response from Ravyn is too, heartfelt.
I ask you where? Where do you find such people on a computer? It is possible to have honor among friends online and today I see it more clearly than ever before.
-----------------------------------------------------------
If we shadows have offended,
Think but this, and all is mended,
That you have but slumber'd here,
While these visions did appear.
And this weak and idle theme,
No more yielding but a dream,
Gentles, do not reprehend:
If you pardon, we will mend.
And, as I am an honest Puck,
If we have unearned luck
Now to scape the serpent's tongue,
We will make amends ere long;
Else the Puck a liar call:
So, goodnight unto you all.
Give me your hands, if we be friends,
And Robin shall restore amends.
(Act5, Scene1)A Midsummer Night's Dream(William Shakespear)

Tew everything I posted in my post was from the heart and I ment every word of it. I love heroes and MaH, and that love also cause some strain on my marrage. I will always continue to support Toh/Mah, until the love for heroes is gone (which I don't se happening anytime soon lol). With Ves as main admin, and me just helping I think it is what is best for MaH for now. Maybe once my crazy life settles down and Ves feels I can handle thins solely, maybe MaH will return but I am not sure. Tew I never take anything you say to heart truely because I know your just as frustrated with everything that has been happening like I am. I hope to make peace with alot of players.
This is my appoligy to all:
I am sorry, for the stubborn, no one can touch me attitude I have had. I am sorry, for the lack of intrest and updates on my part as of late. I hope, things can be resolved between me and a few that I was so close with at one time and I just continued to drive away by my stubborness. Lets help the community and game we love so much live on and still grow strong.
