awiiya Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Hello, Decided to officially declare myself mostly inactive. I don't really have the time or the inclination to participate in this game. As far as my role - besides a question here and there, no one used me anyways. Though I asked the Council to announce it a month ago, since they were the ones who first suggested that I was irrelevant, I suppose you can consider this a resignation. But from what I'm resigning? Nothing, really. The Council can post their updates to the forum directly, as they have done already for the most recent update. Send your queries to the Council email, as before. Contact me through forum message if you want an out-of-realm line to talk. I'm not gone for good, just inactive. As far as my role, dealing with Wiiya? I think it's rather appropriate I go inactive. There are plenty of things on my mind, but this will do. Awi Junior, The MoM, J-D and 1 other 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin Chewett Posted August 2, 2012 Root Admin Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Surely you have a scolarly role and such, don't you do more than just hand out wiiya? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maebius Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Oh noes! While I understand that RL ? MD, I do also agree that your Role is much MUCH more than simply acting as a conduit for Council messages, or handing out bubbles. Your activity in the realm stands for a lot more than you may realize, to me, and to others I'm sure. Stay leafy, and don't leave if possible. As for council saying you are irrelevant, are you truly going to take them as the final authority on Your action here? I truly hope not, as that changes a lot of how I see things. Your views are respected, your dedication is inspiring, and your words provide much needed shade to those who stop to listen to them. [b]tl;dr [/b] Please say it ain't so!

Jubaris Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 It is a shame how MD has a constant route of losing its most richest characters. We did not interact much, but I valued your presence a lot. I hope you will stick around anyway. Aelis and The MoM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lashtal Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 This saddens me... I really hope you will reconsider your choice and show your leaves at least from time to time. Our schedules rarely match, but I appreciated both your words and your... ears. The MoM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seigheart Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Exactly what Rhaegar said. We never spoke, but I valued your character, and the player, greatly. MD shall mourn this loss. Watcher, Mallos, dst and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Orchid Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 Awiiya, It feels like MD is contracting day by day, and terribly so by the forces that swat away one's reasons for inhabiting it. Regardless of your public role status, you are tremendously valued by myself and many others for your presence and the unique shade you bring into the world. Even if you go completely inactive, your shadow and our memories of you will still be here for a very, very long time.

De Mimsy Porpington Posted August 2, 2012 Report Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) Awiiya, I can't write it better than those before me have, but I shall try to make this farewell my own (somewhat - otherwise this might involve various nonsensical words). I've known you better in another life, and I consider you a dear friend. It saddens me that you go inactive, as I believe you have a very important and inspiring role in MagicDuel - and I don't mean your recent one by the Council. You are a joy to talk with and listen to. Your thoughts inspiring and your words whimsical and without the withering wear and weight of the world (I'm not sure what that means, but take it as a compliment. I enjoy alliteration). You are an excellent friend and philosopher who has provided delightful insight and riveting tales and poems. Ah, poems. You write well and I hope you never grow weary of your love for poetry and writing. Many memories were weaved in your shade, and I won't forget them. Now that I've rambled and bored you (I'll be surprised, yet pleased, if anyone actually reads this - I know I get lazy when it comes to reading long posts on the web), I do hope to speak with you again. Inactive, but not gone for good. Inactive with speaking to passerby and harvesting wiiya so often, but not gone. I ask you never cease your writing and your friendly ways. Never put down the quill and kiss it goodbye. Write. Inspire. Celebrate. Enjoy. I have been inspired time and time again by your words, and I hope others have the opportunity. I bid you farewell, but I will not say goodbye. Mimsy P.S. Ah, and one more thing. Fadoodle.

Fire Starter Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 I can't do much, rather to support all the good words above, Awiiya. A while ago, I and three others, if I remember correctly, have become the speakers of the Council. The last update I received in my e-mail with the request to make it public. Maybe the Council should speak on that matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fire Starter Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 (edited) I meant the last Council update, that I have posted. It's been a while since they have send me something to post. I was online when the e-mail was received, so it was posted almost immediately. However, this could be completely irrelevant with Awiiya's motives.

Fire Starter Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 ... [cquote]We would like to make it clear that we never said Awiiya is irrelevant at any point. He has an important role and is a valuable player. After a number of correspondences regarding the role we had assigned him, and some questions about the structure of the council, it was suggested by Awiiya that he didn't see how he was useful to us in the position and felt our answers were unsatisfying. In response to his feelings as to lack of use, we asked how he thought he may speed up efficiency, as well as how he might help. As an extension to this, we then pointed out that the current capacity he was placing himself in was not helping us but was doing the opposite and asked whether he felt the same and if there was anything else that could be done. In light of the above, he stated to us that there was nothing he could do for us and that we should remove him from the role, but continue the updates as we had started with him. We hope to find another to distribute Wiiya in his absence, and would greatly appreciate any input or suggestions Awiiya has in regards to this. Thank you, MDC[/cquote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awiiya Posted August 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Yes, I'll correct myself, the Council suggested I was unhelpful or useless, not irrelevant. I'll give the weaver to Kets.

Fang Archbane Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 (edited) In all honesty, i have always enjoyed Awiiya the man, before he became Awiiya the Tree. i always enjoyed his words, his wisdom, his insight, and his kindness. he always listened, and was even better at speaking. He is both my friend in character, and out. If he truly leaves, he will be missed, not just by me, but by the entirety of the MD Community, Losing Awii is a big loss... and it seems weve been losing a lot of our Good lately. My heart mourns for you Awiiya. It truly does. ~ Fang Edited August 5, 2012 by Fang Archbane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sasha Lilias Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 I will, even though we did not talk all that much nor agree on certain points, miss you Awi. I remember you from as far back as I can, the brilliant fighter you were and the LHO of which no words could described. It is fair to say that no matter how long you will be away from MD, you will never be forgotten and people will only ever hope to become as you are. You are an [u][color=#ff0000]inspiration[/color][/u] to many, and a [u][color=#ff0000]friend to all[/color].[/u] Farewell, and I wish you the best. ~Sasha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handy Pockets Posted August 6, 2012 Report Share Posted August 6, 2012 Awiiya, this is a sad thing I read here. My last few weeks, in real life, had me fighting one sickness after another and I could hardly do anything for any length of time. I know you said you did not leave the game completely but I will miss you immensely. Geesh, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magistra Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I valued the conversation we had a little while ago tremendously. I came to visit you later, but I couldn't get in (viscosity too high). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Princess Katt Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 I, too, seldom spoke to you but found comfort in knowing that you were out there, someone I could count on. If you must go, then the best of luck to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackshan Bemunah Posted August 13, 2012 Report Share Posted August 13, 2012 (edited) [size=4][color=#000000]You said in "A Show of Force 2" that "There will come a time when I understand MD fully, and that is the day I leave, or perhaps the day I die."[/color] [color=#000000]I somehow doubt that day has come...[/color] [color=#000000]Or at least, I hope not, as Zleiphneir had me thoroughly wired to meet you.[/color][/size] [color=#000000]You should come back.[/color] Edited October 2, 2012 by Ackshan Bemunah Kaya 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
