I quit! (A company, that is)

Ok, as you don't know, I have been a part of InfiniFish and Flaming Trout for a while, and I just can't handle being in both.  So, I had to make a choice: Flaming Trout or InfiniFish?  Well, I made a list:

InfiniFish:
Pros: 
I'm respected
I have a lot of say in company activities
I get to help with company games
My ideas are welcome
I get to help other members
I get help from other members
Cons:
Not that much publicity

Flaming Trout:
Pros:
I'm mostly respected
Most ideas are welcome
I get to help in the games
I get to help other members
Publicity
Cons:
More uptight

Yikes, tough choice.

So, obviously, I did what any true man would do: Eeeny meenie miny mo.  Unfortunately, that doesn't work with two choices, because whichever you start with, the other is picked.

Then I tried flipping a coin, heads I stick with Flaming Trout, tails, InfiniFish.
And, it landed on tails.

Bottom line is, sorry Flaming Trout, but I can't handle being in two companies.


Actually, THIS is the bottom line, not the one above.

So what, you made me read all that thinking I could influence your decision, when you already decided?

And I didn't want you to think that I put no thought into choosing which company to stay in.

Re: I quit! (A company, that is)

You know, you can write a Scratch program that would calculate a Flaming Trout or IniFish "opinion" of 440,000 people. Then that would be even.  tongue

I could write it for you!  smile

Using the power of Psychology (the fact that you mentioned InfiniFish first with longer pros) I have devised that you should pick Infinifish.

Obviously you didn't read it all, I already said I'm sticking with InfiniFish.

What?  I already decided to side with InfiniFish before RHY posted that.  It's in the first post.

Re: I quit! (A company, that is)

I know, it was a joke.

On another note, if I play my cards right I can get into Flaming Trout.

How much do you expect from a company run by kids? Besides, isn't chaoticD the leader of DG? (Also I heard he was straight up crazy. What's the story with that?)

its ok that you quit. i know it must be hard handling two companies, and i would have wanted you to stay with infinifish anyways (not that i don't want you in FT, you are an amazing programmer AND artist as i have said many times).

but thank you for everything you have done for FT during your time with us.

CD isn't crazy...

PWF/FT is the assistant boss or whatever, and he pretty much runs evrything.

PWF = playwithfire / fantasytales

Which are not puns, but you were probably not talking about that. So if not, what puns?

I'm thinking of incorporating the word 'shuffle' into a sentence somehow, but I'm not sure I can. That sort of thing just wouldn't suit me.
