No back up.
No support.
Now i'm gone.
That was the week that was,
it's over now it's done.
Just to put one thing straight-the reason why Sintubin resigned the
games was to protect me from myself.I put a post saying I don't need
the stress.Gil stopped fighting then,because I had been doing so well
I remember the one time we played, during my school year when I
played from the University under the nick "cogito". You had me
backed into a corner for most of the game. Really beautiful game.
Anyway, after that whenever your name came up on the 'public games'
list I'd check and see how your games were going and rooted for you
to win. Too bad you have to go.

I feel sad that we never played before our two current games. I feel
like I missed out on getting to know someone very special.
If I may be allowed a personal recollection...
I'm not sure if you can remember replying to the particular post I
mean but when you did it was so warming and heartening and lifted
me no end. The post I made entitled "Dear Acolyte" was one of the
most draining, emotional things I have ever done. Rather self-lovingly
and egotistically to say this I know but it is probably one of the best
things I have ever done. So much energy and passion went into it. I
tried so hard to get across what I was feeling.
Only two people replied in a postive, kind manner. One was Chrismo,
the other was you. Chrismo's interest was in Maths, as well as the tone
of the post. You replied, having no interest in Maths, but you saw and
could tell how much I had put into it and how personal it was. And you
replied so kindly.
I felt so drawn to you then. You said in your reply that it was things
like that that make RHP special. There are many things that make
RHP special. At the moment they are being obscured dreadfully.
They are still here though Lyn. They are still here. Your friends here
are still your friends, now more than ever. If your mind is made up
then it is made up, and anything I say will not be enough to keep you
here. So although it doesn't necessarily mean anything to you, I for
one really don't want to see you go, although sadly understand all too
well why you are.
The other thing I want to say is that regarding what I alluded to, in the
I Love RHP post, when I said that you had helped me greatly. It was
when you made the comment about P+P. It was so obvious, so clear
and crisp and short and to the point but I hadn't realised it before. It
was so simple but perfect. I just wanted to say thanks for saying that
to me.
