It's really not that controversial a story, but I won't waste my current employer's time writing it out. It's been long enough that I'm no longer bound by confidentiality, but I'm afraid there isn't much mud to sling.
Still, it might be interesting to some of you, since there seems to be a lot of confusion about how it all ended. I'm travelling for the next few days (Philly) so I may not get to it for a couple days. If people have specific questions I'll be happy to answer them.
BTW, neither Thrax, nor Menzo, nor Scr8pin were any sort of douchebags. They all loved Tribes for their own reasons, and all tried to help. Unfortunately only I knew how to speak Tribalwar, so you never quite understood that they were really really trying to help. Gish was also completely blameless and tried every chance he could. Not surprisingly the people most deserving of mockery you don't know. They don't have nicknames because they never played, never read TW, never cared. The demise of Tribes, and my job, and Thrax's job came about as a result of a completely unrelated power / political struggle. If you really want to hear about that, I'll see what I can remember.
