An old member's speech
Salvete Quirites!
I'll be deadly honest with you.
Three months ago I started something that was unknown for me; I started missing debates, sessions everything we did in YATS. I will not blame it solely on my busy schedule which it was indeed busy but yet again, it has been so before and I still got time for a few posts every day. The main problem is that I lost interest in RTW after four years of playing it and tragically in YATS also as it didn't presented me with anything challenging any more: I have plotted, I have triumphed, I have lost and won and generally speaking, I have done anything possible to be done while my character, ever changing his name, evolved and went on role-playing between the various YATS incarnations. I've been Sulla, Brutus, Regulus, Brutus again, Metellus while Winter was gone and then once more Junius Brutus and some more that I cannot remember now.
Now, as you can guess, I had in mind retiring since I saw that you were all going good and sound without my advice and council. I felt like retiring after I saw almost everyone of the old guard leaving - even the mastermind behind all this, Sanada, gone this January - except Winter, Wode and Maxinius Scipio. However, I tragically discover that I love role-playing along side you all and that while I feel totally weary after these long months of role-playing and moderating this TWC's corner, I still remember how I felt the moment we had to shut YATS down, before the incarnation we are playing now; I felt sad.
Now you may ask "Oi, Fabius, are you going to leave us?". No. After much consideration, I have decided that this effort is worth a little weariness. So, you will be seeing me role-playing soon enough, once I get the plot shorted out; I don't know what has being going on for about a month or so. As you can guess, you'll won't see me in-session for a week or so either, in which time i'll be doing that catching up we discussed about before. However, I'll be logged on daily for an hour or two and you can ask me or converse with me anytime you see me. Also, since my unplayed character has only been a burden to the RP, please have him deleted; once I am settled with the story, I'll rejoin YATS. Also, as Max has said, I too will be most participating during the summer vacations except for a two weeks break when I'll be in Barcelona(), however, in contrary with Max, I'll be giving my best in the meantime to be active.
Sorry for losing faith in you YATS!
Fabius Maximus
An Optimate bastard!
