The time has come to say my goodbyes...
The time has come to say my final goodbyes to this strange thing called Planetarion that I was part of creating many years back. I have had some changes in my life, and the time has come to move on.
It has been a long ride, with steep mountains and rolling hills, lots of fun, lots of hard work, frustration and relief, lost sleep and lost money, fame and glory, meets and endless nights on IRC, coding in solitude and fighting in public.
I wish to thank you all for the years of fun, work and challenges you have been part of. Planetarion was always about the community, the players, the alliances, the interaction, the friendships forged and the wars started.
It has been a privelidge working for all of you through the ups and downs, and I hope you have enjoyed the ride as much as I have.
I wish Planetarion the best of luck in the time to come, and I have left the code and the game in able hands.
Thank you all.
Spinner - signing out.

Re: The time has come to say my goodbyes...
A simple 'thank you' cannot possibly express my gratitude to you for everything, and I mean everything, that PA has brought to my life--and the ways it has changed it.
I can only hope my project and vision is even half as successful as yours has been, and continues to be.

Re: The time has come to say my goodbyes...
Thanks Spinner.. It's been a pleasure to at first play Planetarion that you, vish and fudge created and see it evolve from a little bedroom-hosted game to a full featured game with hundred thousands of players.
I really enjoyed the game and later on also enjoyed working with you as part of the PACrew as it was known back then. And today I still think back on that time as some the best of my online life.
I still remember the time when you was named the 7th of the most powerfull people online in norway.. =)
Well, I signed up here again to give you my best wishes for the future =)
Good luck Spinner (-: (Notice the pheared Spinner smile)

Re: The time has come to say my goodbyes...
Thanks for all the hard work you've put in over the years - it won't be the same game without you. You've created something that's been a part of thousands of people's lives worldwide, and have given lots of people (including myself) happy hours, and stressful hours, but most importantly created a (mostly ) lovely community which we can still see today
Best wishes for the future

Re: The time has come to say my goodbyes...
Goodbye and good-luck Spinner. You have worked wonders for the game, and I think the fact it is about to start r13 shows the success you have brought it. Your legacy may well last a long time. Without you around PA, it is going to seem very odd, and there will always be something missing from the community without you around.
I wish you all the best for the future, and hope you will still pop by to say hello from time to time.
