Farewell

[EM Cernunnos]

People of Catskills,

It is with much sadness that this decision was made, but it is time for me to retire as your EM. Since I first found myself on your shard, picked up my Catskills Survival Guide, and stepped out into the midst of the chaos that is Catskills, it's been an enjoyable trip. I knew before I started that Catskills had a long history of being unique amongst the shards, and you didn't disappoint. It has been an honor to serve as an EM on a shard with so many great players and unique communities. It has been wonderful to hear your tales and share many stories with you. It has been a pleasure to work with EM Kasaven to bring the events and games we designed to you, help you bring your own ideas to life, and to have the honor of officiating some of your weddings.

I could list my favorite times and memories, but I'd rather share them with you in person. EM Kasaven will be hosting a going-away party, starting at 7pm Eastern on Thursday 4/29, at the Catskills Fairground. I hope to see you there.

Your horned EM,
Cernunnos

Although I am stepping down, I am not leaving my 12+ years of UO behind; so be good, as you never know when I'll be watching!

I never attended as many of your events that I would have liked, but I enjoyed them all immensely! (Story nights were my favorites, for those very few which I made it to)

Catskills will surely miss ye, ye scurvy bilge rat!

We'll be on hand Thursday ta give ye a proper United Pirates farewell.

Regards,
Captain Aneirin Grace, United Pirates

Like Farsight, I don't get to attend as many of the events as I'd like, but the ones I did attend were always loads of fun. You and Kasaven always did a great job. In my experience you were always friendly and had the community's best interest at heart. I consider Catskills lucky to have had you as an EM. I'll be sure I'm able to attend your going away party.

Thank you for all that you have done. You will leave Catskills a better place then when you found it. That's for sure.

Thank you EM Cernunnos.

Cern, as I have said before, it was a pleasure working with you. The team and I will miss you, and Catskills certainly will as well.
Good luck wherever your pursuits in life may take you. Here's to one more party together on Thursday!

I've enjoyed the time I had to share, and your visit to our Freehold. I wish you safe journeys and hope you do visit us when you can.
