This is not the end of Dice Like Thunder, obviously it can live on without me just fine. Dan & Richard have been doing this for quite some time. The new format is a lot of work and I am happy to put in the hours, so that isn’t the factor either. It’s actually a good thing.

I found a job. A good job. A great job. My dream job. Unfortunately it would be professionally inappropriate for me to continue podcasting like I currently am. Hopefully you guys will all hear from me again some day in a professional capacity. Rest assured I will be reading the forums and chatting with Dan & Richard on a regular basis.

To keep the new site going I have found a veteran gamer who you is rather new to the site. Rafe is a skilled tournament player who has been doing this for years. He too has a degree in game design and really knows his stuff. Heck, half of what I write is passed on from him anyway! He won’t be able to write an article a day, so the articles will be coming on a less scheduled basis. Expect 3 to 5 a week, but not in any particular order.

Hopefully I can squeeze in one last webcast before I relocate to my new job, but it will be soon. Very soon. I’ll still be around for a few days, maybe a week maybe two. I’ll have to go soon, however. Gotta be a professional… damn it.

Man… I’m gonna miss all this. I’m gonna miss it a lot. Wow, I just don’t have the words. Thank you all so much for listening to me rant and rave. I can’t tell you how much the success of this show has meant to me. My recent opportunities are very much tied to this site and the webcast. None of this would have been possible without you guys. I can’t express my appreciation properly.

    WTF.
    What a shit day I am having, and I get to end it with this.
    We all know that dice like thunder was Macks baby. It was his passion and energy that got this thing started and saw it get to where it is. It’s certainly something he can be truly proud of.
    It would be outrageously selfish of me to say that Mack should give up his dream job opportunity for the sake of providing me with an awesome podcast that I don’t even have to pay for.
    But Dammit, i’m gonna miss Miggidy Mack.

    All the best mate. Ya done good.

    I’m definitely going to miss Mack on the webcast. Good luck with your new job. Can you tell us what you’ll be doing?

    “All good things…” indeed.
    Thanks for all the hard work and valuable contribution you’ve made to the 40k community without charge.
    The Chi Town Boys have been representing with their podcast for time now so it’s all good.

    Thanks again MM
    We will remember.

    Congrats on the new job!

    And if you happen to find yourself in the frozen tundra of Minnesota looking for a game just give me a call.

    Usually a lurker but had to post.I’ve been listening to DLT since the teens. I can’t say I started at the beginning but it feels like it. I’m a relative noobie to the hobby and this podcast gave me the foundation to continue and love this hobby. I know it will still be around but hell it won’t be the same without you mack. Best of luck

    We’ll be pushing on without you Mack. You have given both Dan and I an opportunity and I hope we do you proud.

  7. Steve says:

    So long, Mack. You’ll be sorely missed, but Dan and Richard definitely know what they’re doing so I think we’re still in good hands.

    What will happen with the San Fran show? Will Kevin and Ian continue swapping weeks with Dan and Richard?

    Let me not be the first or the last to say Good Luck! It’s a fact we will ear from you and maybe even get to see you at Gamesday soon. You are one of the pioneers of this 40k podcasting. I have always loved your work (maybe not your new co-host but this is not the time or place). You are great and I will miss your work. Thank you for all the work you have put in and the countless hours of my enjoyment and “Nerdetry”.
