    To Whom It May Concern,
    It is with regret that I must announce my resign-
    ation as administrator of quake.ie, and consequently
    from the IGN organising committees.
    Since I joined IGN / quake.ie last year, I have put
    in many long hours bringing the site and servers to
    their current standard. Originally, I carried this
    work out in my free time, but this gradually took
    over my work time as well. The result was that I
    would spend all my time, day and night, working on
    improving the quake.ie service.
    This in itself is reason enough to leave, but when
    my health was affected last week in the middle of
    quake.ie maintainance, I was certain that I had to.
    Thank-you for all your support and advice over the
    past year, and I hope that you will be able to share
    some of this with Ed Curry at the IGN (eddie@quake.ie)
    to whom the unenviable task of finding a replacement
    now falls.
    I will continue to play Quake with GI clan from time
    to time, and will see most of you at the IQCL Finals.
    Wishing quake.ie all the best in the future -
    John.

    I won't attempt to say anything poignant. It's all been said and said very well. Hopefully this event in Belgard will give me a chance to finally meet you in person and thanks to the fact that there's a bar I can buy you a much deserved pint.
