Define Cynical Fan Forums

Many of you already know I've been planning to go on a mission for my church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) for a while. Well, many delays later, the time has finally come. I've gotten the letter telling me where I'm going and what to do, so it's time for me to start saying good-bye for two years.

Okay, enough with the suspense. I've been assigned to go to Las Vegas, Nevada! Not somewhere I would have thought, but it's as good as anywhere. Not that I'll necessarily be in the city all the time--the mission covers much of eastern Nevada, chunks of California and Arizona, and a town or two in Utah. But I'll probably be in the city too, since they move you around a lot over two years (though the mission actually only covers the east half of Vegas, the rest going to a couple of other mission areas.)

I'll be leaving in SIX WEEKS, so you won't be seeing much of anything of me now (other than responding on this thread, of course.) I'll be pretty darn busy getting things ready, and schmoozing around forums is pretty low on my list.

So anyway, I just wanted to say it's been great being here and nice knowing you all. I do hope to return when my term of service is up!

Oh, also, if you by any chance happen to live in the area that I just described, could you maybe PM me with your address and phone number so I can...drop by?

Have fun! I'm sure there's at least one computer in Las Vegas that you can talk on here with.

Wow, 2 whole years. It's gonna be weird with you gone for so long. Hope you remember your password when you get back (jk)!

A missionary in the City of Sin? Either it's serious business, or the church stuck you with a perceived lost cause while they sent their more promising missionaries elsewhere.

Been good having you around Cam! Good luck on your mission, hope to see you around the interwebs again someday!

Best of luck in the missionary trip! Have fun in Vegas! Well, not too much fun, if you know what I mean.
No, but seriously, have an excellent two years and stay safe. Hope you can get in touch with us every now and then. Bye, Cam. It's been great knowing you.

*lights the candles on the goodbye cake*

enjoy.

It's gonna be interesting without you here for two years, man, but good luck on your trip, and hopefully you can get time to drop by and say hey every once in a while!

Thanks again for the awesome sketch and sketchbook!

Have fun, good luck, and stay as safe as you can, Monsieur Nielsen!

Best of luck man. I'll be praying for a successful trip for ya.

You know, with the title "Going on a mission!" I thought maybe you'd been promoted to secret agent or something.

Maybe you have, and you aren't telling us. Damn, you're good at this. I can see why they chose you. Good luck assassinating enemies of the state!

Silliness aside, take care, and I hope I'm still here when you come back

Thanks a lot for all the well-wishings, guys.

Have fun! I'm sure there's at least one computer in Las Vegas that you can talk on here with.

No time, and there are rules about that.

Have fun in Vegas, and please do check in once in a while if you can!

It's gonna be odd not having you around.

Goodbye, and I hope you can make use of your artistic abilities on your mission trip.
