...A Small Annoucement...
By now, you've probably noticed the fact that Joe Rosa is now listed as the Head Storyteller for Blacklight Productions. And I'm willing to bet some of you are scratching your heads, saying to yourself "Weren't Eric Sasmor and Forrest Spilker listed as the Head Storytellers, not this Rosa guy?" And you know what? Up until June of 2001, you were right!
Rather than get into a very and tedious story, let's just sum up the factors that made this change necessary:
- Eric's significant other, Leilani Dawson, finally got into graduate school - in Ann Arbor. Since Eric and Leilani are moving (or have moved, depending on when you read this) out of the Tri-State Region, Eric really can't be in charge of the group.
- Forrest's life has just become incredible complicated (I won't going into details, as they aren't mine to give - ask him yourself), so he really can't be in charge of the group either.
- ....Um.... I forgot the other factors; when I remember them, I'll list them, okay?
In any case, since the original two Head Storytellers couldn't really continue to run the game, but no one (either players or staff) really wanted to end the game, the Blacklight Productions Staff had a meeting, and selected Joe Rosa (one of the original judges, and one of the founders of the group) to take over.
So, there you go. That's why Joe's in charge. We'll miss Eric and Leilani, but the game shall continue, and at the same high level of quality that you've come to expect from a Blacklight Productions game!
Tada!
