Five years.
That's how long it's been since I signed up for my first forum game here, and since I earned my first Master of Games points. I've played in almost every forum game hosted here since then. While I've made countless memories and many friends along the way, during all of that time I was in pursuit of a single goal. I wanted to be the best. I felt like I accomplished everything I wanted to in mafia a while ago, but for the other half of the section, especially after the travesty that was Relic Sweeper 2, one man always stood in my way. Kuroaitou. Despite my best efforts, the gulf in points was simply too great, and the Master of Games title eluded me. For five long years, I was unable to overcome the legend that we all know and love.
Until today.

With this, the Master of Games icon is awarded to Linkcat, taken from its previous holder Kuroaitou.
The last major item on my Elements bucket list has been completed. I can't really express how much this means to me, but I will say this:
I love Elements. I love forum games. I love all the hosts that set the bar for quality so high, that I am sure this is one of the top forum game sections on the internet, and I love all the members of the community who made running it possible. May its spirit live on.
Thanks for playing.
