Alright, thought it was about time to voice my opinions and stances on some items currently going on within the fed. This is all what I think, and everyone else has the complete freedom to disagree. So, without futher ado, I give you...
BENBEN'S STATE OF THE LULZ ADDRESS
First of all, I am going to apologize for my absence for the past month or so. I was having some computer issues, and I was also adjusting to the "wonderful" new surroundings of high school. It's safe to say I've got my stuff under control and will be on the forums more often from now on. Rest easy, people, you've got your BenBen back

.
Next on my list is the "Sprint for the Spot" battle royal. I will NOT be RPing for this match, as I really see it as taking an opportunity away from others. To elaborate further, this whole tournament is about giving unsung heroes and, thanks to this battle royal, newcomers a chance to shine and maybe even win the top title in this thread. I already possess a championship currently, and I don't even want to risk stealing any type of spotlight from the "target fed-members" of this tourney. Again, it's YOUR time to shine, not mine.
Now it's time to talk about creative. No, this will not be a section of pure bitching, but instead, pure understanding. Isy, from the bottom of my heart, I wish you the best of luck in your current situation and hope that you can overcome all of the obstacles in front of you. Your family has my prayers. For the rest of creative, I also absolutely understand your periodical (is that even a word?) absences. Like me and others, you have more important things in life to deal with than the forum. I think we all wish we had a little more time for the fed, but it just isn't so. But, the fact that you DO make extra time is just astounding.
Even so, it seems that creative is being overwhelmed by the sporadic breaks of their fellow creative members. Basically, they're understaffed. Now, I know I can't write a match worth a damn, but I can do other things. Whether helping put together a card, posting a card, working on WZCW.com, even posting a show. Basically, Creative, if you need any help with anything other than match-writing, I just want to let you know I'm ready and willing. Unless I give other notice, of course. So, yeah, if you need help, just know you can count on me.
The last thing I want to talk about is the recent surge of new fed-members. I just want to welcome you all with open arms, and wish the best to you during your time here. When we get on a roll, it's really a great time to belong to the fed. And I have a feeling a roll is coming on real soon. I hope all of you newcomers take advantage of the battle royal to show us your stuff. Just remember one thing, don't grow yourself an ego. I know some of us who have been here awhile know what happens when a promising RPer gets a little ahead of himself. Just accept the opportunites your given, and if you keep on keepin' on, you'll make it big in the long run.
And so ends my first ever State of the Lulz Address. Like I said, feel free to comment and/or disagree with anything I say. It's your own right. So, yeah, I guess that about does it for now. I'm all typed out.
