Mr_Hatter 1,608 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) Hi all! I have a somewhat bittersweet announcement today, the contents of which may or may not surprise you. Coming with the retirement of my current player Paul Atreides, I have decided to take a step back from the VHL at the end of this season as I take some time off before recreating (not sure how long at this stage), and in doing so, I am stepping down from the position of VSN's Editor-in-Chief. I have spent the better part of my 3 years in the VHL thus far as a member of the team, from my early days as the VHLM correspondent with Under-250, to the past 9 seasons or so as the editor, and it has been my absolute pleasure to lead this league's media network. I have worked with so many talented, dedicated individuals who have, in truth, made my job easy. To attempt to name all of you would be an effort in futility, but I would specifically like to thank @FrostBeard for giving me my start at VSN and @Doomsday for his dedication to the team as both an editor and history specialist, and for providing me a blueprint for how to transition from writer to editor. To all my writers, thank you for giving me something interesting to read and work with week in and week out. To the VSN Graphics team, thank you for all that you do; for consistently amazing me with graphics I could only dream of creating, and at a speed that blows my mind to this day. To our podcasters, and any other individuals who have spent their time contributing to VSN productions, thank you all for your hard work; I appreciate you. Finally, thank you to the commissioners for giving me this platform and working with me on everything I have tried to do with VSN; your support has been invaluable. There's only one more person I want to specifically name, and that is my replacement. Coming as a shock to almost no one, considering how prolific and involved this individual is at VSN, it is my honor to introduce the next Editor-in-Chief of VSN: @Alex I am so excited for Alex to take over VSN; I know he has a lot of fantastic ideas and an abundance of passion for this league, and I can't wait to see what he comes up with. I look forward to the future of the team, and the league, and I look forward to eventually returning to full activity. I will still be around, so this isn't goodbye, and I hope to return to potentially contribute to VSN again as a writer or podcaster someday. But for now: so long, and thanks for all the fish!

Doomsday 4,131 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 It's a job that requires a lot from you to do it well... and you did it well for a very long time. It's a testament to all the hard work you put in, and it's a break you very much deserve. Thanks for what you did to make VSN so awesome!
