    After 18 Years, My Final Thread at SBR

    Guys, I am not going to lie, this is the toughest thread I have ever had to make. After nearly 18 years (including about one year as writer on front page before actively joining forum), this will be my final thread at SBR.

    About one month ago I was told my contract will not be renewed beyond tomorrow (Feb. 28), as contests will now be run through the soon to be rolled out new contest platform here and my services as Contest Manager are no longer required. Furthermore, I will no longer post in the forum as, after some back-and-forth contemplation, I accepted a position within the same industry.

    It has been a blast conversing with you guys over the years, there has been some lively banter along the way both good and bad, and I will miss that most of all. Also, sorry that you will no longer get a chance to fade my daily picks over the last year or so.

    Regardless, I wish everyone here well, and maybe some of our paths will cross in the future.

    Good Luck to All!

    GL with your new job, LT! Thanks for your hard work in running all the contests.

    I understand the new management's need to cut costs, but this still sucks for you and the forum.

    Best of luck LT. You’ve always been great in every interaction. You are the reason I finally got off my ass and signed up at SBR. I followed your plays for a couple years and then finally signed up to join the banter. Enjoy the road ahead, just another chapter in the journey. Cheers.

    LT, I've always appreciated your pain staking work you've done around here, the attention you paid to the details of everything you were a part of will go unmatched.

    I for one will miss your MLB threads.

    Best of luck, God speed, don't be a stranger please.

    This is a horrible business decision letting LT go. He singlehandely kept the contests going the last 2 years when everything kept breaking down.

    If you think the new contest platform will replace LT you are going to be in for a rough ride. You can't replace 20 years of human experience with a machine!

    Good luck LT on your new job and please let me know where you will be so I can follow you there.
