One Final Note: My deepest thanks to those of you who stuck with it and made this happen: Brunk (the champ!), Dove (and his SATANIC computer), Steve, who stepped in and did a part he wasn't expecting to, and to Petey, who has been both the biggest thorn in my side, the biggest CSWA fanboy of all time, and the best friend the CSWA and this game have had. It is my pleasure to have been a part of this (and everything else) with you guys for so long.

Thanks to Gregg for all his great ideas and for his willingness to jump in and take on a ridiculous amount of roleplayers with no hesitation. You've always been there, even in the midst of hiatuses and disappearances, and I truly appreciate it. I think "The Epitome" isn't far off at all. Plus... you came in to your wedding reception as Ric Flair...who can beat that?

Thanks to all of you who were involved in this as competitors. Again, I apologize for the ridiculous time it's taken for this to go up. In true CSWA/GUNS fashion, I won't offer up any excuses.

Thanks to those of you who are taking the time to read this after waiting so long. I don't expect it to be worth the wait -- but, if this is the end, it's a hell of a way to go out. I'm happy with it, and I hope you are too.

Thanks all.
