Not sure how else to say it, but I think my days posting D&D logs may be over. If nothing else, I'll try and get the first 10 episodes of the Misfits done, maybe the PvP, but I just can't get the energy to keep up or catch up anymore. Don't grow up, kids. Adulthood is a b*tch.

[@jaclynkurtz9808]

I'm sorry that you're having to stop doing something that you love, but it's great that you're taking the time you need for you! Thank you for the many, many laughs, and take care.

[@mr.truffles9294]

Hello, and thank you for you hardwork. When I started watching this series, I noticed your logs and was laughing at your witty comments. I thought it was cool that these videos have a log so that we can keep track of how the story sailed. I seriously thought you were a part of the team due to the hardwork you've done. But then I've learned that you were just a fan like us and was doing this logs for free. I was amazed and said to my self: Wow that is some dedication. Your logs are so organized and how many times did this person Rewatched this video to make this log while putting some comments. Adulthood is hard yes. You'll learn that there a things that needs to be prioritized and the responsibility that comes with it. Furthermore, Thank You for the services you offered to the channel. You were consistent with making logs for 100+ episodes. A video without your logs is the same as an episodes without Lorquin's subtitles. It feels weird when it's missing and We can only appreciate it when it's gone. Thank you again. For my appreciation of your craft is the only thing I can offer to you.
