I have enjoyed working with you all, but the time has come for a transfer of the Leader position from myself to the next in line for this throne. As much as I'd like to stay Leader, I have a new job in real life which will require a lot more time, energy, and long distance travel and hence would make me an ineffective leader here. I will sadly resign from my post on July 14th. So, this is a customary 2 weeks advanced notice.
Just to be clear, this does not mean I'm completely leaving! I will stay in the clan but will be playing less often. I might have to miss some wars for travel. In that case, I will simply leave on Friday and then come back Monday. No worries.
There's no Heir Apparent per se, although I do have some preferences. I would like to poll all members to see who you all want to be the next Leader. I will take your votes seriously into consideration. However, I do reserve the right to hand pick my successor regardless of the poll outcome. Please fill in your pick below. May the best Clasher win!
Again, recall that voting shows your IP address, so please do not vote multiple times. Redundant votes will only count as one in any event.
Please note: I wanted mealypudding to be on the list of candidates, but he has withdrawn himself form consideration due to family and work obligations. So do not write him in as an "other" candidate unless you wish to waste your vote.
