There is so much amazing competition here. I mean, between returning vets with a goal to win again, newcomers with tons of fire and passion, and people I’ve come to know well between competing against them or judging them, I can only hope I can make my mark on the game and stand out enough to go as far as I can. So far, both prompts have been amazing by the way! Designing a land is always fun, but the mini golf threesome is super unique!

I could ask you the same question.

All kidding aside - I haven't fully read the projects yet, but skimming through them they look like the start of something special for SYWTBAI.

This season is the perfect mix of veteran SYWTBAI players (all the way from the early years), to veteran wdwmagic folks playing for the first time, as well as brand new friends here getting their first experience in a competition.

It's very exciting to see!

Hey guys, figured it was only a matter of time before I had to make this announcement, but regrettably, I can't continue participating in the comp, as too many real-life obstacles have impeded on my ability to make a sufficient impact on the game. It wouldn't be fair to any current or future teammates to give them only a shell of my full self, so in the interest of cutting off any dead weight, I have to resign from the competition. I'm glad I got through the first four challenges, as it gave me a chance to spread my wings some. Thanks to all the judges and participants; your passion and dedication for armchair Imagineering is always what keeps me coming back for more.

You will be missed, buddy

Thanks, Pi. I apologize for my inactivity. It's part of the reason why I decided to move quickly on announcing my exit; wasn't fair to you or the rest of the team. I am very much sorry!

Sorry to see you go, but I really respect your decision. It was wonderful seeing you back for the weekly challenges, and I genuinely apologize if I came across as a bit harsh during my cast assessment. It was more than a little presumptuous of me to assume you weren't active last round just because you weren't familiar with the IP and that external factors weren't at play. You will always have a definitive place on the Mount Rushmore of SYWTBAI as one of, if not THE greatest to ever play. Wishing you well with all the craziness going on.

I couldn't say it any better than this.

You will always go down as the GOAT of SYWTBAI!

I don't know where you all are, but know from our interactions over the years we are all over the place. Whether its covid19 or what's going on across the country right now, hope you all are safe whether you are at home or out among your various cities.

Definitely second this. I've got friends in LA, close to Columbus, and even in Minneapolis so this has really been a nerve-wracking past few days for me. It's been great having this game as a distraction.

We've reached Level 6 of Jumanji 2020. Who knows what June will bring us but everyone stay safe to you and yours.
