Remember people, this isn't a funeral, but a rebirth. Mike has done many, many amazing things for the organized play of the Pokemon TCG. It probabally wouldn't be half the well oiled machine it is today without him, and he will be missed among the community, but I am almost certain he will return after he is done with the Video Game organized play.
I cannot think of one other soul more deserving, qualified, or better suited for the position of shaping the Video Game organized play into a fitting sister of its TCG counterpart. Mike, I am certain that all of us on Pokegym, and most certainly everyone in the TCG community itself, is greatful for the job you have done, and will ocntinue to support you into futures certain. You will be great at this, it is historically impossible for you not to.
Best of luck in everything.
