Bittersweet

Last Tuesday, a long standing, dedicated, and friend to all resigned from the team last Tuesday.  It was very abrupt and very out of character for him.  I was angry because regardless of what he told me, I knew it had something to do with his new bride, who had also joined our team.  She has no dance experience so she wasn't really clear on what to expect - if she read the google doc for our team maybe she would have, but alas, he is gone and it's a real shame because one thing he loved to do was dance.  But I respect his decision to give up what he loves doing because he loves his bride more - I totally get that, I just think it's a shame that she didn't stick around long enough to see what we we're about.

So again, we move forward.  He will always be welcomed back to our team.  I wish them both nothing but happiness.

My After Show Thoughts....

Every time we finish a show I have the urge to want to sit down and write about it.  After eight months of taking care of DX with the help of our members, I feel my lightest - my intention when I came to this game almost ten years ago was not anything short of just having a good time, and that's exactly what we do.  We don't draw in the kind of crowds that stress out a sim and cause lag - not that we wouldn't like the idea of that many people wanting to see us at the same time because that would be amazing indeed, but with the smaller crowds it means less work the simulator has to do and a better chance of having minimum issues with lag.  I figure if we have to deal with lag, chances are that our guests are suffering from it to and this can cause issues with sets rezzing properly or jerky choreography.  We have been very fortunate, as the team has learned how to deal with laggy situations.  Some of the places we travel to don't always have estate rights where they can reset the sim so we have to be prepared for anything, and we are - which makes what we have so great.  We all work together to produce our shows, which is something Wild always wanted for this team.  Working in harmony......oh it's not perfect, but it's damn close.

We are enjoying putting on shows, whether it's a crowd of 8 or 38, and no one complains....we all just want to be able to chill at the computer doing what we are doing and showing it off as much as we all want to.

We will go as far as we want to go.  :-D
