They say all good things must come to an end, and today I have the sad duty to announce that Ruguo (also known as Silverfish) is stepping down from their positions and taking a break from things to focus on things offline.
It's hard to believe that they've been in Wintreath for nearly 4 years, but in that time they've taken on more than their fair share of struggles for our community. In our darkest hour, they served on the Regional Truth Committee to get to the root cause of the Schism. When I made the appointments, nobody could have imagined the drama, stress, and pain that serving on that panel would entail. Then for a good while they were our Jarl of Culture, where they revolutionized our Werewolf scene by adding advanced mechanics that attracted Werewolf/Mafia players outside of NationStates for the first time ever.
That would be an incredible legacy for most people, but Silv took it even further by asking for a transfer to Jarl of Foreign Affairs, one of the most demanding and thankless Cabinet roles in Wintreath. As Jarl of FA, they organized our relations, produced their own foreign dispatch, and partially restored the long-dead ambassador service...an incredible feat given everything. They also fought the good fight and made an attempt to establish new relations, and while those attempts didn't work out, I've been repeatedly told that they represented us well in the process. I don't think anybody could have done a better job in the role.
Silv has been in continuous service to Wintreath for nearly 2 years now, and if for no other reason than that a break is well-deserved. This is a major loss to the Cabinet and to our community, but they had good reasons for stepping back that doesn't involve Wintreath in any way, so I hope they are able to return to us as soon as they're able and be an active part of our community once again! Again, thank you for all you've done for Wintreath and for being a friend in our community. :)

You were amazing Silv, it was great to have you as a boss and I hope to see you again. Take care.

A pleasure as always Silv. You’re an incredibly hard worker and an even more amazing friend so during this time away, while certainly earned, you will be doubly missed. Thank you for everything you’ve done for Wintreath and for me over the last few years. Godspeed, Silverfish!

A very well deserved break. Hope you enjoy your time away, Ruguo!

Thank you Ruguo, those were some good Werewolf games you hosted and you were fun overall to have around which is always nice. Hopefully you'll still join in on future games in the region.

Bye bye Silv I how everything goes well and will miss you more than I can say. Thanks for everything.

I hope you find what you're looking for, Silv, and we'll be here for you, always :]

Thanks for all of your hard work and for all the good times Silv, I had a blast running Werewolf 25 with you and hope I get to look forward to more moments like that in the future. In the meantime, I wish you much luck and happiness with your offline focus and hope all goes well in your life, and look forward to if/when you decide to return back here. :)
