So, this is it.

This roleplay is quite possibly the last roleplay I will ever write. I’ve been involved with e-feds for over five years, but I think it’s time for me to call it a day, at least for now. Since losing Internet access last summer and dealing with the stress of my A Levels, I’ve never really been able to get into roleplaying as much as I used to. The love is still there, but I just can’t seem to make the time to write to the best of my ability, and if that’s the way things are going to be for me I’d rather retire gracefully than continue to write poor roleplays and lose just about every match.

I think the roleplay you’re about to read (well, I hope you’re going to read it!) just about sums up my time as an e-fedder – not everything it should have been. This roleplay is about half of what I planned to write – six scenes were planned, three were written, due to other distractions. As an e-fedder, I never fully reached my potential – the ability was there, but other factors such as Internet access, schoolwork, and to be fair my own procrastination/laziness, held me back. I have enjoyed e-fedding a hell of a lot, and some of the events mentioned in this roleplay by Jericho are some of my fondest memories. My feud with Joey when I won my first World Title, having Jay’s Randy Orton as a slave in DX, working with Brandon, writing 10,000 words last summer to beat Phil (then found a one liner could’ve done it because he couldn’t roleplay), my short but in my opinion amusing “Jeri-cane” skit, they all meant a lot to me, and I was proud of those roleplays. But at the same time, I know that I could have done more. I would’ve loved a chance to feud with Tony, Ashlee, Sunny or my sister, and it would have been an honour if I’d ever been able to write something with Tammi, after she always took the time to read my roleplays and remember snippets of them months later. Maybe one day some of those things will be possible – if I have enough free time when I head off to uni this time next year, I wouldn’t say no to a return, but I think a twelve month hiatus with no guarantee of a comeback would be pushing it. To everyone I’ve mentioned above, and the others who I’ve been involved with during my time as an e-fedder but forgotten to mention (sorry!), thank you. And to those of you about to take the time to read this roleplay, thank you again. I ran out of time with the promo so that could have been better, but I’m rather proud of the first two scenes, as I think they’re some of the best stuff I’ve ever written. Hope you enjoy =)

Well, as someone who has been in numerous feds with you for the better part of the last 5 years I have to say it is sad to see you go, but I've been to that point you seem to be at now and I totally understand. I retired for about two years before being sucked back to the EBWF (in which I am very glad I returned) so I will remain hopeful that we will see you again...but if not you just do what you have to do and best of luck with everything.

It's awesome that for years no one has ever been able to call us just Ben, it's either Ben Nichols or Ben Lyons. I hope I can keep the spirit of Ben alive for us in the EBWF...but I don't claim to be Ben enough for the both of us. :lol:

Take care man, talk to you later.

- Ben (Nichols that is)

Awww sad! I hate to see anyone go but you'll be missed even though I didn't really know you.

I know this, because Wes knows this.

I'm sad to see you go too, man. But real life does have to come first sometimes. I just hope this is a Mick Foley retirement. ;)

And look on the bright side -- you go out holding the World Title. :)
