With all due respect.. (in General)

Just for the record, I am (or, I have) respectfully bowing out of the QB contest. Though I am thankful to those who nominated me, I frankly didn't do much of anything this past quarter. Life happens, things change, and priorities must be adjusted. Perhaps in another quarter, the timing may be better. Anyway, thanks again.

Me too, I said at the one back in the day that I lost (but won the public vote, cough cough) that I wouldnt run for it again.

Before anyone gets an incorrect idea, it's not because I won the popular vote but lost the Jon vote. It's because plain and simple, I wasn't active this past quarter. Other people were. I'd hate to take votes away from more deserving people to make up for last time.

People can get the wrong idea about me I don't mind, though the PR firm representing me may be angry

I am Spartacus!

Are write-ins allowed?

QB isn't always about how much you did in this last Quarter, but how much you have done overall compared to others, you can still be recognized for that.

Anyways, You got my vote whether you are in it or not.

Mikel - Thanks, man. That's very kind of you :)

Congrats to Pit for a job well won :)

You'll be happy to know (or not) that I will not be hosting the contest any more, if that was one reason for you not participating as well.

Edyit (as far as I know) will be taking over.

In either case, I think you've done a lot for the community.

SNK, I highly doubt it is because of you. He said he didn't do much last quarter, I sort of agree with him, only because he's done so much more in the others which makes this one seem so insignificant, but I don't think he should've bowed out.
