{\it

{\Large L}ethargic greetings gentle reader, and welcome to this
this last, lethal, and quite possibly lobotomizing issue of
\underline{The Guildsman}. Since issue \#5, we've scoured
the campus, looking for some deranged
personage with the qualities (or rather lack thereof) to
continue producing this beloved publication with which you
are currently so unwittingly mesmerized. Suffice it to say
that no such fool\ldots er\ldots individual exists. Thus,
as expected, this issue will in all likelihood be the last
which we shall inflict upon you. Oh, stop crying! I'm not.
Wah!!!\\

Blame for this travesty of literature goes to our
immensely distinguished contributors and to Brian
{\sf (asmodeus)} Saylor who helped with the editing and
formatting as well as fending off the sleepies during
our various late night excursions into electronic publishing.
We both hope that you enjoy the final effort, as it were,
and if you have any comments, criticisms, snide \& nasty
remarks, or job prospects, you know where to reach us.\\

Hasta la bye-bye, gentlebeings, and let the games begin!\\}
