Wait, I've been Delegate for *three years*?!

All Good Things Must Come to an End
And also my delegacy, that too.


Hey everyone, did you know that I first became delegate of Refugia in February of 2020? That’s a long time ago! And yes, there was a little time immediately after that where I wasn’t delegate, and a lot of things happened so my current delegacy streak only really begins as of June 1, 2020, but still! Probably too long for one person to be in the position. Definitely too long for me to be in the position. I've been talking to other people about this for a while now, and have decided that I'll be officially stepping down as delegate of Refugia on June 30, 2023. The wonderful Typica will be taking over the position, and I hope everyone is as supportive toward him as you’ve always been toward me. I know for a fact that he’ll do an incredible job.

When I first became delegate, Refugia had only just broken 100 nations- for most of 2019, there were just over a dozen of us in the region, and we’d started widespread recruiting maybe a month or two before the end of the year. Since that time, we’ve become something of a regional powerhouse, and I’m really proud to say that, while I’m part of the reason for that, it’s also thanks to all the great people who have put in time and effort over the years. And while my name might have been on the recruitment telegram a lot of you received, or it might have been the first name you saw in the region, or maybe I welcomed you when you first joined- the region is full of great people who can do way more than me.

And so I’m stepping down. Retiring, I suppose, since this has taken about the same amount of time as a job for the last several years now. I’ll still be in the community, but I’d like to just sit back and watch this region I love dearly and helped build continue to grow and function without so much interference from me. And what will we be doing to help this delegacy transfer take place? Well, I’m glad you asked! We’ll be doing something that’s always been popular in the past- a big card giveaway! We’ll have more details on that soon, but it’ll be running along the end of June so that Typica can come into the delegacy with the most endorsements possible.

Anyway, I won’t take up too much time here, and I’m not really going anywhere. So thanks for reading this!
