Hello all,
I'm here to announce you that Maskman will be taking the CR Role in the next few days, untill the end of that term (the 31st of April). Then, a new CR will be elected.
The reason is not the one you could imagine, I have no lack of motivation for NW, I just have less time for the game. I waited untill that week to take my decision, and this is not a decision I take in one minute, that is thought and reflected.
You will say that I could have thought to the time I was going to have before applying to become the CR, and I tell you that I thought to it. But my university decided that we were going back in class 1 week after I was elected, which I totally didn't expect. I still wanted to keep the role, but others things came on and basically when I have some free time for NW, I prefer to spend it with the 92nd.
Personnally, I consider that as a big fail, in the way that I didn't do what I announced. I sincerely want to help the community to become a better one, but this is not the right moment. I could keep my CR role and basically do nothing excepted reading all your FSE posts and do like one action to say "Look, I did something as a CR!", but no, I prefer to have someone else with the role.
Why Maskman and not someone else like Golden ? Maskman was the one who faced me in the final, so I suppose alot of people were behind him and wanted him as a CR. Golden also had supporters and almost beat me, but he is in my opinion less involved in the tournament organisations, but in another way, he has more influence in the competitive scene. To come back on Maskman, I know he would give his best for the role and I totally trust him.
One of the hard things is that I am disappointing all the people who voted for me. I have no excuse, I just want to apologise and thanks you alot for believing in me. I understand that you can't understand my decision, but I am the only one who can make it, and I choose to give my CR role to someone else.
Feel free to message me on Steam if you have a question. I will be responding to it. But I can already tell you that the decision is made and will not go back on it.
Just wanted to say that it was a very selfless virtuous thing you've done here Fotin not only for yourself and for me but for the community. As CR I just hope I could be as upstanding and courageous as you and if I were in your position I hope I would've done the same. In before all the haters having a go at you for stepping down since a genuine grievance against your campaign was that you might quit again, despite this coming to fruition these Covid circumstances and IRL problems are always unexpected and you shouldn't be ridiculed for putting IRL life first.
I understand that the mounting external pressure pushed you to doing something as radical as stepping down and I am sorry for that but the fact that you looked at yourself hard in the mirror and did the hardest and most courageous thing is very respectable. Granted it would've been easier to just hide away and wait your CR term out but the fact that you've put yourself in the spot light again and put your hands up is actually surprisingly principled of you and just goes to show how much you do care for the community. Its a hard pill to swallow I can imagine but I think here we all know you had and still have the communities best interests at heart and I am really sorry that you couldn't achieve your ambitious plans that you so rightly layed out, for the community in your own way.
Thank you for putting your trust in me. I will happily accept the CR role, the sky is the limit
