PPPS Oops! I just noticed I double-posted. Can I do that as the Admin? ;D No. But because you are new here as an administrator, we will close both eyes and let you go away with it. But just once.

Mike
I would like to say thank you for making such a wonderful Game & Watch forum. I am sure my collection and knowledge are expanded after joining here. Hope you will come back, soon.
Aris
Thank you for always helping me a lot. I am sure you are the person to be administrator.
Regards Baluce

Long time... strange news... Sad to hear that you have to leave us, Michael. As others said, your forum is a big database, source of knowledge in the G&W world, probably the biggest on the net. And you deserve all the credit for that. I hope that things will go better in your country, but I know that Greece could be the first on the list, and that we could follow... Anyway, I wish you the best in your family life, which is the most important thing. Aris is probably the best person (or, should I say, not the worst one ;D) to walk in your path. I'm sure he'll do his best. And finally this change is good for all of us : Administrating the forum will take him some time, and then he'll probably be a little less present on ebay, snipping auctions. This'll make some room for other collectors...

Wow, Mike's leaving. Having only been a collector for a few years, Mike has always been part of the furniture of my game and watch universe...I feel like a kid who's just heard his parents are divorcing!!
Mike, every time I have ever dealt with you, you have been the model of courtesy and wisdom. You've built something amazing with this site; it's chock full of info and wit, and it's still a pleasure to explore. Many, many, many thanks for everything you have so selflessly given.
Aris: No doubt there's no more capable a pair of hands than yours to take over; enthusiastic, committed and highly highly knowledgeable...not to mention an acerbic line in wit that always make your posts enjoyable to follow! Best of luck with everything Aris!!
Alan

Hi guys, It took me more than half a year to notice this defining moment in time, but I just have to react. Mike, I have been here since you started this forum (even before you started using proboards) and I think you did an outstanding job! I have often wondered how you were able to do all of this. People really haven't got a clue how much time and effort it takes to run a forum like this, but I do, hence my admiration. You litteraly changed the g&w subculture and you did it on your own. I see you as mr. g&w. I take my hat off for you and I take a deep bow. I regret your decision, but I fully understand why you made it. Thank you for everything! I hope you will continue to visit the forum often, even though I don't. The g&w subculture can't miss you. And you know that! Even though it took most of us years to get used to Aris , I think he is the only person who can do the job. Aris, congrats! I know you're fit for the job and I know you will succeed! Cheers! Regards, sAner a.k.a. Pieter

Regards, sAner a.k.a. Pieter Hey Pieter, Wow! I don't think anyone could have said it better in terms of what Mike has done and accomplished - well put! I've only been on the job a few months, and frankly, I think I've been doing a terrible job. I've been away for a bit, but I'm back now, so, I'll try to get back in the swing of things, so, I appreciate everyone's patience with my lacklustre performance. I appreciate the kind words Pieter, even the jab too - LOL! Did it really take years though??? BTW, I'll be starting a thread on Euro 2012 soon. How do you like your Orange's chances? Portugal has essentially owned Holland in the past, but couldn't top Denmark in qualifying, so, Group B will be very interesting indeed. AC

Hahaha! Well, 'years' was perhaps an understatement ... Btw: NL will play and lose the final again ... That's what I think at least. sAner
