Thank you for your contributions. You have been immensely productive as a judge and staff member during your time.

RGamma has stepped down as a publisher. You've been a real hero bro, a true professional. Hope to see you come back someday.

Congrats to Stovent on becoming a publisher. When I first joined here, he has been very helpful with teaching me some basics of TASing, while also teaching me how to Video dump, and eventually how to encode. I wish him the best going forward!

Today, after six years as a judge and four years as a senior judge, I am stepping down from judging. The reasons for this are mostly personal, and I am not going to go into more detail on them. Note that this was already decided a few months ago, so it's not related to any particular or recent event. I have had a great time as a judge over the years - saw many great TASes, discovered many great games I'd otherwise not have looked at, and have been involved with more people from the TASing community than I ever would have been. I especially want to give shoutouts to the administration and judge staff I've worked with, helping refine the ruleset and maintaining consistent quality standards. Thanks to everybody who has been involved for this time. As I'm leaving the senior judge spot, feos has stepped up to take over this position. Please welcome feos to this challenging position. I am also taking this moment to announce I'll be taking a temporary break from the site as a whole. Please redirect all your TAS-related questions to other people (rule questions and decisions now go to feos). I will be back again in a week or two.

You've done a good job as senior judge, Moth. Good luck with your future, wherever it may lead you. EDIT: Will there be a need for any additional judges as a result of this?
