Ethics Gradient 2,411 Posted May 25, 2019 Share Posted May 25, 2019 Aarik did a great job as community manager, and he'll certainly be missed. If anyone wants to thank Aarik and wish him well in his travels, there's also a farewell thread on twitter: Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Marceror 1,086 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 What's chance 6? Based on their logo I'm guessing it's a new fruit drink company. Yah for fruit drinks!

Tale 2,459 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Split the difference, maybe they're working on a game about juicing watermelons. They already have one indie horror game on Steam.

HA! Good Fun! I believe that what Gromie means, in all of the text cited, is what a gift it is to welcome @Aarik D back ... It is exciting to know that this rich Obsidian community does and continues to be enriched by such care and presence as people such as our trolls, Squad and Devs! Welcome home, Aarik: we missed you!
