Yea, this may come as a shock to many of you, but I have decided to step down as leader of The Halo Union *gasp*. Calm down, this doesn't mean I'm leaving the union forever, just for a little bit. Truth is, I don't have as much time as I like, and time is needed in order to run such a big union. I have a 40-50 hour a week job until August 20th. August 20th is when two-a-days start for football. Football will last until Thanksgiving, and that is a long time to not be very active in this union. I thought about it, and I knew what I had to do. I had to step down, and someone else had to step into the spotlight...

Now you may be asking yourself "who, who could lead this great union and continue the legacy that you, chows, and danmorgan left?". It was not an easy decision, by all means. I thought every officer had his strong points, and if given the position, could do well. I asked the officers to vote for one another, without voting for themselves. Then I confronted the top 3 vote getters, and from there, I chose. And the person to step into my shoes was --MAV3R1CK--, a very dedicated and loyal officer to the union. I trust him with the union, and I know he will do his best to keep it in tip-top shape, and help it excel. And with Halo 3 right around the corner, he's going to have his hands full. But I know he'll be able to do it.

Last, but not least, I'd like to thank everyone for the support and dedication you've shown me throught my leadership. I'd like to thank draggoon, banshees, gazza, mav, 3eyed, bigc, expertgamerandvivalamatt. And I'd like to give a special thanks to Chows, for giving me the reins to this union, and for helping turn this union into what it is today. I'd also like tothank out to a few recruits that have been active throughout my time as leader, such as isaach, sfgiantsfan, covenant dude, darthsifh, andcoyote. You guys never gave up on the union, good job.

So thanks everyone for making my time as leader here at the Halo Union great. I will post from time to time, and visit the board when I can. Expect to see me on Halo 3 (when I skip school on September 25th) and on the board regularly after football. THANKS!!! :D
