LOTW Operations Leader Mike Palmer, a long standing veteran of the site and CO of Prinz Eugen (a multiple Sim of the Year winner), yesterday resigned from AJJE Games in protest over the reversal of Resolution #37 and the leadership in general.
The final straw was a widely-criticised decision by President Jeannette Giesbrecht to post a link to her decision reversing Jamie Chamberlain's ban on the sims of LOTW without asking the COs of the sim, some of whom were not on strike, including Mike himself, recovering from an eye operation. This also included the email to order Ash and Mike to reverse the ban.
Mike posted a thundering resignation in LOTW's parliament, accusing the President of tyranny and stating that the top-level leadership would be glad to see him go. He was followed by relative new player Benjamin Sedlak, his XO Mike Kennedy and Damian Lamothe.
Mike's fear that Jamie Chamberlain would be appointed as his successor proved unfounded- Deborah Leighton Plom was appointed instead. Wife of Parliament Leader Ashley, she is a popular player and seen very much as in the same camp as her husband, who she met via AJJE.
In response, Eddie Cramer said he did not harbour any ill-feelings towards Jamie. Jeannette said that she was sorry to see him go.
We will keep you updated with developments. This may not be the last resignation.
