When I formed the StarCraft Union 2 years ago, I had no idea what it would grow to become. It, like almost every other union on GameSpot, has seen its ebbs and flows of activity, and one months-long stretch of dead inactivity that could have been the end of our union. The face of the community here has changed quite a bit, and I no longer have any of the four original charter members who helped me found the union. But the SCU has attracted other great users and SC fans on GameSpot, and I'm pretty happy with the team that we have here today.
It's been fun leading the union for these 2 years. I've enjoyed working on the union, spending time on the artwork, playing games on Battle.net... and yes, even the ridiculous randomness that I was forced to endure during my time here. 
I am now a senior in high school, and I have become far too busy dealing with college apps and the trials of my final year. I had hoped that I would still have time for the union when the year started a few weeks ago, but now things are ramping up and I realize I won't be able to lead the union.
As a member of the union from before the great dead period and a loyal officer since its rebirth about a year ago, ponic3 is my first choice as our new leader. I've already promoted him, and I hope you all support him as our new leader.
ponic -- Sorry for the lack of notice bud, I've been thinking about this for a while but the anniversary snuck up on me and I decided to do this now, along with it. I realize you're probably pretty busy now too, so if you want to pass on the torch to someone else that's completely alright with me. Who you choose as the next leader is up to you.
All crews, stay frosty,
--Blade

From the BlizzCast:
...in cIassic Starcraft you could throw a couple zealots on your choke and zerglings coming in would have a hard time getting past them just because you can only fit so many zerglings up against the zealots right? Now you have a similar thing but at the same time out in the field if you have zealots versus zerglings the zealots have trouble because the zerglings wrap around them, start devouring them...

The Sara system was initially catalogued by freelance prospectors and colonized by an expedition from Tarsonis several years later.

The Sara system was unusual for having two habitable planets, but Mar Sara was always a backwater colony compared to the more prosperous Chau Sara...
