Congrats.
Uncongrats to me ramping down my games, but future congrats for ramping them back up again in September or October.

The term Ramping down would refer to the extra work involved in contraction, which would not really apply here...
Much the way the term Ramping up, generally refers to the extra work involved in preparation of an expansion...
Around here, you just join away and you are there... no real ramping up.
and conversely, you can simply stop joining games... no real ramping down.
Perhaps the terms Waxing and Waning would fit better..
Of course this is generally used when speaking of the moon,
but i think it works well here...
So congrats to you for your waning games, and future congrats for your fall waxing...
Of course, we could always just say wax on,,, wax off... lol...
Congrats to Robinette for doing something interesting with this thread.

Congrats to Robinette for making me think how happy I am to not be preggers. Of course it was Robi who made me think of pregnancy in the first place, when my eye fell upon her posting that contained the verbiage "extra work involved in contraction". That made me wince at the thought of labor, which naturally made me think of pregnancy, which of course made me EXTREMELY grateful to not be preggers. Whew, I'm glad it's Friday!

Congrats to Gillipig for omitting the prerequisite congratulatory salutation...
Congrats to Robin for taking over Owen's compulsary need of enforcing a rule that is not a rule at all, merely a suggestion.
I'd like to extend congratulations to everyone who lives in Sweden and just finished writing for 6 hours non stop on his novel today.
Do I need to add that I was one of those skillfull/dedicated people ?

And im not a GLG hater just cant understand that someone who definatly is a good player almost only plays such games.
I would miss the competition of different opponents, high ranked people and tournaments. But if hes fine with it its ok for me as long as nobody is beeing hurt in the process.
Incredible that someone with below 10 games is able to beat him in a freestyle game btw. Must have been pretty lucky i guess.
