Thinking about if you have enough time

[Judge Sam]

Hey, I was just wondering if you have thought about if you have enough time to play the game. The players really want to talk to you on AIM... and it hasn't just been this past week, it's been consistently throughout the entire game. I know you spend a lot of time researching the board for cases, but there isn't that much board posting this time around, and most of the conversation goes on on AIM. There have been long periods of time without you posting or coming on AIM pretty regularly.


Have you thought about whether you think you can give your all to the game at this point? Let me know if you think things will start to change on your end sometime soon, or if this level of activity would continue for a long time.

I was actually going to make a post to you this morning about this very subject. A deadline came on me at work and has just killed my free time towards the end of last week, and it doesn't look like it's going away anytime soon, at least for the next two weeks or so.

So as much as I hate to do it, it may be better for you to replace me with someone who does have the time to dedicate to the game; it's not fair to you or the others playing.
