That's a sincerely felt roll-call of posters there, DArt, thanks.
Whilst in my early days here at the Watch your posts were often intimidating and infuriating in equal measure, after awhile their stylistic familiarity became something to look forward to as there would often be a point on game design or a philosophical insight that was interesting for me, even when I didn't fully agree with you.
That insight will certainly be missed at the 'Watch.
You're an articulate chap who knows how to relay your life and passion for gaming experiences in memorable (and often extended and tangential!) ways. I'm certain whatever endeavors you combine your intellect and heart towards, you'll be successful. Don't be a stranger to the Watch now; maybe write a review here or there. Cheers.
