Stepping Down as R6 Manager
First of all I would like to personally thank Bovey for giving the opportunity of becoming part of the R6 scene by giving me this position in the first place, however I think it was too late for me personally.
For the past 3 years, I've been going to college not knowing what major I wanted to pursue, at one point I even thought about dropping out entirely. I was very unhappy at school and at my job but I was never motivated to do something to change the way my life was going. I always wanted to help people but I didn't know how, that's when I looked into Physical Therapy. I now work at a Rehab Hospital helping stroke and spinal cord injury patients by getting them to their therapies and assisting them with walking and other activities. I very much enjoy working there and I can see myself working in the field. However being a full time employee and a part time student, I have no time to help our R6 team, especially with an EU team. I felt so guilty seeing them lose their matches, not being able to solve problems within the team, not being able to give them advice. and not being able to find them a replacement coach. I felt like I let them down and I want to apologize for that. I feel like this is the best option for everyone, I can finally pursue my goal of finishing my degree and the team have the help to make it big in the R6 scene.
I will still be part of Flash Point as a stream and hope to stream more often now that school is over for the summer. I will be rooting for the R6 team and I know they will be able to reach their goals in becoming professional players. There is something very special about them, I know they will be a tough competitor once they have all their issues ironed out. I wish the best of luck to Deox, Deapek, Maunikrip, Erikk, FML, Tricky, and MrEnvii, I will be rooting for you guys!!
