I hate to do this to everyone but I would guess most of the people who are raiding with me are noticing I am getting a little worn around the edges. New job + commute = waking up at 6 am every weekday to get to work on time. My timezone means 10pm end times still = 7 hours of sleep tops.

5 nights a week of this or later means progressively grumpier Grafte, less productive Grafte and a very tired Grafte throughout the rest of my life. So I have decided that this raid will have to be the one I let go in order to have a night of sleep in the middle of the week. I would love to keep doing it, it's killing me to disapoint people because I think we have a great shot at getting 2 and 3 drakes down but I just can't keep it up.

Going in I told Han this was a possibility so I am leaving the raid in his very capable hands. Good luck to all of you on whatever you decide to do with it. I will be available for next week if possible, but I am planning on next week being my last.

Let's make it a awesome week, and get 2 drakes or at least Vesperon down.

Grafte

Well, thank you very much for running the raid as long as you did. You got your plate pretty full, so take care of yourself

Personally, between 3.1 coming, starting my own raid, and the uncertainty of Dragon Crusade's future, I wouldn't mind if we called the raid now with Grafte leaving. That said, if everyone else wants to continue, I'll happily stay on until everything shakes out in a month or two. I'm having a fun time.

Whether next week is our final run or our last chance with Grafte, I look forward to making it a good one
