Hey everyone!

You still here? Hopefully you've already taken part of the community migration. If not, please read the last announcement that Hackey5 has written.

I really hope you had fun with this rerun! While there are mentioned winners to this activity, I hope you guys remember this as more than just another forum game. This was an amazing bonding exercise, and I feel that I've learned so much about you from your random posts that really show your creative side. Never forget to spread some love and cheer whenever you can; and always remember that the place is that much more colorful and fun with your personality. Don't forget that.

So why is this post on the news and announcements board, you may be asking? Well, because this activity, as well, means so much more to me than just a game. Through all the wikia activities that I've ever had, nothing has made me more happy than my forum participants' joy I've witnessed when I host my witty GD forum games. I hope you had as much fun as I've had being a creator. With the few years that I've been a member of this group, I'm so glad that together, we've formed a tight and small community through thick and thin. From humble beginnings, I've watched most of you wonderful human beings develop this wonderful community into such a unique place, a family that cannot be found elsewhere. For that, I commend you and give you such tight hugs. And I hope that most of the essence of the community could have been loosely found in this "fixer-upper" activity: where everyone works together and achieves a goal.

With the community migration to the fanon wiki, unfortunately I'm afraid it is time for me to drive the love train elsewhere. This has definitely been a long time coming...Due to personal connections that I've had since the birth of the forums, I officially state that I will not be making the transition with the community to the fanon wiki. I've secured most of my roots here, and of course, moving to another place just won't the same for me. Hope you guys understand that. In addition, as most of my status here has been keeping up the community and being the social chair, I have come to a decision to step down as an administrator of this wiki. This was definitely not an easy decision to make along with my "unannounced" self-demotion on my home wiki; I love all you guys so much! Nevertheless, I'll hopefully find new places to branch out, meet new people, and have some more fun editing.

However, please do not let my decisions discourage you from moving to the fan wiki! I, in fact, encourage you to start contributing to the fan wiki as soon as possible, because I know that you guys will light up the place brighter with community content compared to here. There's so much growth and potential that I see in you guys, and in the GD fan wiki, that's where it can really shine.

In no way is this adieu. I'm not disappearing from the face of the earth because wikia has been a huge part of who I've become today. I'll pop in on here and maybe the fan wiki every once in a while to see how things are going (maybe participate in a forum game)...and I'll definitely be in FGA, hopefully communicating a lot more. Maybe I'll create a discord game? I don't know. Please keep in contact; even if I get busy, I love hearing from all of you!!

So that aside, I know that you guys have come to find out what the heck the rules were in this post. Stay tuned while I type up the solutions, and you'll hear from me here in the next day or two!

And, oh yea, congrats to Airtoum, TimewornKaiju, and Aggron...Just Aggron for securing first, second, and third place as well. While I said that winners should not be the focus of this game, they are important as that's how a game is created in the first place. :)
