Hi hostalliance,

I'm about to make an announcement in the Kitchen, and I want you to know that every word of what I will post is true. There was an unexpected death in my family, and I'm going to be spending a lot of time over the next couple of days with my family. This means I will be spending a lot of time with my family and away from the board. I am NOT quitting. I've put so much time and energy in this game, and I love it, and I just see this as me being less active. While I would not complain about the hosts accommodating this and being looked out for in general, I don't want an ounce of game sympathy or to be treated any differently. If I'm voted out tonight then so be it.

Thanks for understanding guys. I mean it :)

Very sorry to hear the bad new Shane. My thoughts are with you and your fam.

But seriously, rl > orgs, so don't sweat it.

Thanks so much, I really appreciate it :)

This actually happened to me in an ORG about a year ago. My other grandfather passed away in Quid's BB24, but he was much older and we were all prepared for it. This was very unexpected, and it's still a bit unreal.

SS, I'm so sorry about this. Death is something I don't think anyone will ever really get used to. My thoughts are with you and your family. RL always comes first, so don't feel obligated to continue to push in this game.

When my grandpa died it had been coming for years and it was still horrible. I'm really sorry to hear this dude. Don't worry about your activity or anything at all. If anyone complains about it I will hate them on an out of game level. Hope things get better for you. :cry

Aww, thanks. You guys are really sweet :) I'll tell GaGa to rig hostalliance for all of you :<3

And I don't think GaGa has read this yet, but just so she knows I'm not posting about this anywhere on ORGY/Sucks for ID reasons. I do intend to make a brief post about this on facebook sometime in the next couple of days, but I'm only FB friends with like three ORGers. It will be very vague though. And I highly doubt anyone that I'm friends with is in this game.

This is the first time I am seeing this. I am so sorry to hear this and very sorry for your loss. Like Chadnelle said RL > ORGs

Don't sweat activity here or anything about the game. I wish the best to you and your family with everything.

:<3 You so much.

Hey GaGa. You're the best, thank you :<3

I meant what I said in the main thread about this being a good RL distraction. I may or may not be here for the round itself, but like I said, I pre-voted, and you can use that. My plan was to go on "defense" this round anyways. I wouldn't be terribly opposed to losing Jeff now. Just to reduce the target on me.
