I'm retiring from competition. Thank you SPZ for one hell of a match, I hope you are able to step up the fight to MJH at the next PPV. Oh, and to my "mystery opponent", I couldn't think of a better person to face in my last match. I'm not "quitting micros", I am simply quitting the competition aspect, and I thank everyone who I have ever faced for some tremendous matches. Thank you all.

I'd retire too if SPZ beat me.

I'd retire too if SPZ beat me. That is only part of the reason. Over the past few months... since the Micro Rumble even, I just haven't really felt like I want the competition. I did win a championship in the meantime, however that was unfair, and I would like to apologise to CMC for taking his title like that, I am glad he reclaimed what was rightfully his. But yeah, I'd lost pretty much all drive for competition, and this loss certainly sets it in stone for me. There is no hiatus, no break. This is it.

I'd much rather have this as my farewell theme.

To clear up any confusion, I will remain an active member of MicroStop, I am simply retiring from the competition aspect.

This seems pretty stupid to me. If you are still making micros 'casually', why don't you just submit one to a competition some time? It would be little to no extra effort on your part.

Because I don't want the competition anymore. Yes, it is selfish of me, but it is what I want, and after two and a half years I have done everything I could have wanted and more. I have no... desire to compete against others.

Welcome to how I felt a few months ago. When a match result doesn't go the way you'd think it should, this happens. I have a feeling we haven't seen the last of you in competition though (if you still stick around as a member.) I've just come back from that controversy as I'm back into a micro making kind of mood and have a match coming up. Hell, I've done everything I wanted to do too. But you just can't keep the micro bug away. I reckon you'll probably become more like some of us on here who only compete every once in a while.

Potentially, but I've felt this way for ages, and ever since I stole the title from CMC in the manner I did... I really just... it's strange, but I lost all will to compete knowing that I took the title from him without him having a chance. It's like all challenge just felt negligible. Plus, I feel the match result went the way it should have, SPZ made a much superior micro and proved why he is worthy of competing at a higher level.
