I would like to make the unfortunate (to me anyway) announcement that I will be resigning from my position as Venture Captain for Minneapolis/St. Paul effective 19-Oct-2012 (unless Mike finds a replacement sooner). I'm fully planning on helping Mike identify a replacement VC for Minneapolis/St. Paul as well in my last couple of weeks.
It is very important for everybody here to know that this decision is entirely based on an inventory of what kind of hours my real-life job will take up in the next 6-9 months. If I had the ability to juggle the tasks I have pending with my VC duties I would, but I don't. So as much as I love my role as Venture Captain, I had to admit to myself that I can't dedicate the time to the position that it deserves. This really was a difficult and sad decision for me.
But fear not! I will still be GMing on occasion, posting on the board (when time permits), and still available via e-mail and PM. I also want to thank Mike and Mark for making my time as VC as entertaining and as enjoyable as it was, my VL - Andrew Christian for helping out as much as he has, and my local store coordinators for picking up game days as much as they have. Finally and most importantly though, I'd like to recongize all the players and GMs who have risen from my first table of 6 players at a single game store to a cities wide group of more than 250 gamers who play upwards of 10-15 tables of PFS a week. If it weren't for all of those players, I never would have made it as VC.
See you all around!

Those of you who don't live in the upper midwest may not realize how much Ryan has contributed to the health and vitality of the Society up here. He has been enthusiastic and encouraging, while also being dependable as a cheer-leader or organizer. (I've seen a lot of people with one of those skill sets; Ryan's one of the few with both of them.) He's also a terrific table judge, with a strong command of rules cruft and a positive, encouraging attitude and sense of play.
Thanks for your work, dude.
