    Yesterday, I submitted my letter of resignation to Panda leadership, effective 12/31. The opportunities I was afforded there were formative, and I had the honor of working alongside dozens of intensely capable, creative folks. I'm enthusiastic about figuring out what's next! 💫

    Apologies for my silence; I just haven't felt like I have anything meaningful to contribute personally while we wait for answers. My focus has been making sure Panda talent & staff—all of us blindsided by the SWT's cancelation and statement—felt supported in this confusing time.

    I tune into @WolfeyGlick's Metronome-only tournament stream for TWO MINUTES and see the RUDEST THING I've ever seen a Pokémon do. Dusknoir is a PUNK.

    I'm absolutely over the moon to announce that I've joined @TeamLiquid as a Talent Strategist, working alongside both talented professionals and electric gaming personalities! I just finished my first day, and I can't overstate how warm & welcoming everyone is. I'm so excited!💙

    I will NEVER get over the "I shouldn't have to play a Top 10 ranked player" bracket feedback request. There are at least EIGHT of these in the Riptide folder rn. Everyone take a breath and say it with me: The function of a tournament is to determine a winner. Simply win.

    My final day at Panda was yesterday. I deleted all the work-related apps off my phone, left all the Discord servers I was a part of, logged off Slack & Asana, and made sure every necessary file was transferred to the right place. The modern desk-cleaning, heh. Here's to 2023.

    PGRUv2 Ultimate Tier List! With 35/50 PGRU members reporting, here is the result of the survey in which characters were rated from 1 to 10. For @ComeToFrostbite, the Low Tier Hero Award looks at characters in the final tier (except Mii Gunner)! Text version in thread.

    Public Tier List for Patch 7.0.0 While I was waiting for the PGRUv2 to fill out their tier list (results in thread), I also sent out a public version which got over 600 replies. Here's the result of THAT tier list, which is not really all that different from the PGRUv2's!

    I couldn't find the right words if I tried. Was already heartbroken for so many: competitors, behind-the-scenes workers, fans. Now all of my fellow coworkers, too. All intensely talented, all in the dark about the future.
