WE SHALL RETURN!

So, where has Captain Brinn gone? Well, if you have been on the treacherous JJ Huddle website, where they operate their forums like a censorship playground, we have explained that due to JJ Huddle's tyranny, we have not been doing our rankings or updating our site. Hopefully our fans on the Huddle and of this blog are passionate enough to miss what we do and say and will join us in saying farewell to JJ Huddle! We know very soon, we will be back doing what we do, and we know from the support we are receiving on JJ Huddle that we are missed and supported. Stay tuned to this blog for more soon!
