FYI: I apologize for not posting much recently.

I am now the 2nd in command (Captain) of a top 20 online gaming alliance. It's taken up a wee bit more time than I thought it would with policing members, helping them, recruiting, etc. I'll try to be better in posting interesting things.

I declined the offer.
