After several years sterling service in Ecclesiantics, Seasick has now paid full penance for his sins and is standing down as a host.

Fluffy, the ship's bunny has crapped on Barefoot Friar's square, so I'm delighted to announce that he will be taking on the role.

Please join me in thanking Seasick for all his hard work and congratulating Barefoot Friar on his new magic powers.

Many thanks to both seasick, for his years of hosting, and Barefoot Friar for stepping into his shoes.

Despite the new host being somewhat gullible and not always knowing who he really ought to trust, excellent choice!

Thanks for your service, seasick!

Fluffy does things like now again. [Biased]

Best wishes to Barefoot Friar in that offbeat place (that's how it seems to me) and thanks to Seasick, who can take communion where he wants, when he wants, without worrying about what Shipmates will think.

Thanks for the reminder, An die Freude, I knew I liked Barefoot Friar!

Really though it was a good game, and it'll be good to have you around. Welcome Barefoot Friar.

Seasick, you've been great. Enjoy the newfound time!

Seasick, you have done well. You should be made a bishop for your efforts, but you probably wouldn't be allowed to accept the honour.

Barefoot friar, are you mad??!

Odd to be sorry to see Seasickness go.

Make sure feet are clean before tromping over the nice rugs.

Am I mad? Hardly. Flabbergasted seems more accurate.

Seasick, you've been a great host and a great shipmate. Y'all come back now, y'hear?

Farewell and thanks, seasick! Another one of the great old timers retiring.

Welcome and thanks for stepping up, Barefoot! Making you could don shoes as your hostly implement?

Seasick, thank you for your good work, and enjoy having more free time in your day, although I'm sure it will fill up quickly. I've always enjoyed your posts as a Shipmate and hope that will continue.

Barefoot Friar, thanks for taking this on, and best wishes!

Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world’s grief. Do justly, now. Love mercy, now. Walk humbly, now. You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it.

A significant loss and an excellent gain. Fluffy strikes again!

Farewell, seasick and many thanks; hopefully you'll need fewer Kwells without that Host role.

A warm welcome, Barefoot Friar, and make sure you acquire a shield and a pair of hobnailed boots from the Host store.

Many thanks for your years of service, seasick! I will miss seeing you in the Lounge.

Sorry to see you go, seasick-- have fun in civilian life.

Welcome to the Monkey House, Barefoot Friar!
