Old Players Just Fade Away: Mogami

I was too late to UV to catch the legend that was Mogami. And I was too late to WitP to catch him there. But I recall things like "the Mogami method" to handle pilots in WitP - some kind of complicated routine to train pilots that was later rendered obsolete by a patch. He was also a moderator for several games. So I've heard about the legend, but I don't know him. Yet I know enough to perceive that there would be a tremendous outburst of enthusiasm were he to show up one of these days.

Yes, very enthusiastic would be my response if/when Russ returned.

Who could forget "Beer Made Me Do It," the AAR of the game that resulted when Mogami, after consuming a quantity of suds, was talked into a PBEM in which he attempted an invasion of the US West Coast?

The last word I remember is that the Army and a new wife were monopolizing his time.  [:)]

Canoerebel -

As a very new WitP player, Mogami's systematic approach to Pilot training game me a solid basis upon which to start and learn. I do miss him and hope that he returns.
