Well, the jig is up I guess.

You guys don't use the site enough, so I'm shutting it down. It serves no purpose and is lame. Jumpgate sucks anyway.

Goodbye and thanks for all the fish or whatever that stinky crap you have been throwing at me is.

Efective midnight tonight.


Laters.

Piss poor Jump. I really expected a lot better from you. At the very least I expected a longwinded spiel like every other time you post something serious. I for one won't miss this rathole at all. No one even tried to get high score in the arcade.

I will also be turning all of GrimGriz's Private messages over to the FBI. There is some pretty nasty stuff in there.

The only thing that would be better than shutting down this POS of a website (and I'm not talking 2, 4, or 8 pointers) would be if they pulled the plug on Jumpgate itself anytime before midnight tonight.

Just a little update. After heavy handed late hour negotiations, this site will be changing ownership. Your new admin will be a nice guy named Trogdor. Things should start to take shape around here now that someone who understands the community and is so beloved by the community will be in charge.

Happy Burnination to you all.

Well, seems the deal is off. This Trogdor fella apparantly accidently banned himself so I have had to take over again. What's worse is, my automated self destruct script that was set to go off at Midnight PST failed because I accidently set the clocks ahead before midnight so midnight never came.

Now I have to keep this POS website online for another year.

Sucks don't it?

How to leave the Planet:

1. Phone NASA. Their phone number is (731) 483-3111. Explain that it's very important that you get away as soon as possible.

2. If they do not cooperate, phone any friend you may have in the White House - (202) 456-1414 - to have a word on your behalf with the guys at NASA.

3. If you don't have any friends at the White House, phone the Kremlin (ask the overseas operator for 0107-095-295-9051). They don't have any friends there either (at least, none to speak of), but they do seem to have a little influence, so you may as well try.

4. If that also fails, phone the Pope for guidance. His telephone number is 011-39-6-6982, and I gather his switchboard is infailible.

5. If all these attempts fail, flag down a passing flying saucer and explain that it's vitally important you get away before your phone bill arrives.
