All things, including serial characters, run their course, follow the sun and settle beyond the horizon. Rather than bore a few readers, I´ve decided to kick Balz upstairs behind a desk in Flensburg from where he can quietly watch the war and the goings on in the world of SH3.

i like to take this opportunity to thank every one of you who have supported Balz and his antics for a number of years. It has been great fun.

As they say in Japanese when speaking German and singing in Italian,

Grazie, you all.

Thank you for all the fun, Brag. I'll miss the good times, friend.

Ditto.

I miss Brag and his adventures already, thanks for everything

Thank you for the great reads, Balz and Kingmaker!

I had mentioned at one point if the collected works were in an anthology somewhere. I discovered that reading the collected threads was much better, as the interactive nature of your writing made the whole experience.

Thanks Brag.

I personally appreciate the help you've provided me with my little story. (Which, BTW, is still alive, just slow. Next chapter will be out shortly.)

When we returned from patrol, I assembled the crew to tell them the news. They took it quietly, and bravely. Together, we carefully wrapped our hand-knitted, official U-49 tea-cozy in tissue paper and mothballs & sent it to my 1WO's Aunt Bertha in Dresden for safekeeping.

We'll always have HajiJimbuna's magic flying carpets and the twirling choirs to see us through the dark patrols.

Oh Bugga Alex!!...I'll miss the guy and his band of brigands

It was an excellent sojourn though

TabbyHunter · 03-19-11, 03:26 PM

Sigh, this is a sad day.

All we need now is for them to be collected in a single thread for easy reading.

TarJak · 03-19-11, 04:40 PM

So, the end has finally come for Balz!

You could always sell his tea cosy hat to a museum.

Thanks for all the laughs Alex. It was fun while it lasted.

I found the best way to read them is by doing a search on it, the comments help shape the story, so it's best to read them with them included.
