Greetings all,

I know you're all ready to get going again and the new session will begin this weekend. You're also probably wondering about last sessions results and I 'm hoping to have it out Friday or Saturday morning by the latest.

I have to admit, the last few weeks have been a bit of a blur, so you'll have to forgive me a bit here. It's a bit overwhelming, but in a good way - and I am greatly appreciative of the support I've gotten. Most notably from some of our former FC's like Spokes, Licah, Sconn, Josh, and Castor to name but a few.

I'm blessed to have them share their knowledge and experience with me. I am grateful to them for doing so, and find it most beneficial here in the early going. My thanks, gentlemen.

Anyway, I just have a few things more to double check on and then the results will be posted.

Also, I'd like to add a few pre-session notes here. For those of you that like to play games on XBox: Markus is planning to do a tournament on games like Halo and such. If interested please drop him a line to get the details.

For those of you who are interested in simming (RPG) and don't know where to start, I believe they have something going on every Friday if memory serves. For more info click on the calender link on the right menu bar or the RPG link on the left menu bar. From there contact Raven to get started.

Pazaak, thanks to BGN Adam Mieter(and Ray!) sparked some interest last weekend. If interested check out his post or drop him a line.

Lastly also if you have an idea bring it forward. Don't be afraid to grab few of you fellow RSers and test things out. Taking initiative to try something I encourage greatly. Every bit you do helps the RS as a whole.

I look at the RS as painting on an easel that is on going. We are the brushes and our Ideas are the paint. So if there is something you enjoy doing that you feel could help out in other areas drop me a line. Well that's all for now and as alway glad to be of service anyway I can.
