Fellow Blocklanders, friends, acquaintances and AoB members:
_All good things must come to an end, and unfortunately for me, my AoB career, as well as my Blockland career,
is now ending officially with the close of AoB 2011. It is with great sadness that I take my leave. As I'm sure many
of you noticed, I had been pushing this off as long as possible, sticking around for the past several months
unofficially. I've enjoyed seeing AoB grow as I gradually stepped away from leadership.
_I started AoB in 2006 so that I could build in good company. I had no idea that it would grow to be the elite building
community it has become - one of Blockland's best. I'm very proud of everybody that's been involved, and I'd like to
say thank you. Thank you to everyone who has contributed to our great clan, past and present. I'd also like to personally
thank Fredzo C., who left in 2007, without whom I would never have gotten this clan off the ground, Polymer (aka :Tom:),
who left in 2008, without whom this clan may never have been coined, Lordy Lord, who became inactive and left in 2008,
without whom this clan would never have become as well known as it now is, *Magick* Mage, who has devoted years to
serving this clan loyally, without whom I may never have kept going through all the rough spots, and last but not least
Remousamavi, who has dedicated his time recently to becoming the new leader of AoB. but to everybody in AoB's past,
present, and future, (Time for the most corny of the corny moments!) you are all truly the Architects of Blockland.
_So now I leave you to grow and continue developing without me. With this, I shall also be officially closing AoB 2011, and
I will lock the topic when the 2012 topic is opened. I will miss each and every one of you, and I will attempt to drop in now
and again to visit, and my forums inbox is always open to you all. I'm very proud of what we've all accomplishedand I wish
AoB the best future possible! Farewell, my friends.
