RIP Abe

Yesterday I was given the sad news that Time (Serge to me, Abe on here since 2004) passed away. As SG was the place that I first met him, I thought I'd pass this on to others here who may not move in the same social media circles.

RIP Abe. Final post count: 493

Pray you stand resilient against the SGers in Japan curse

Yeah, take care of yourself Rekki, and be careful, their hospitals seem pretty bad since human error basically killed him

I'm devastated to hear this..... I got to hang out with Tim several times when we lived near each other in Japan back in 2004 and he was a really, really good dude. I can't believe how sudden this is... RIP Tim.

While he wasn't a regular on SG in recent years (to be fair, only a few are), he had a huge presence on the internet and therefore my general day-to-day life. Though he never had the money to donate to my Talking Real charity gaming marathons, he'd always be there watching way more than a sane person should, Tweeting us encouragement, laughing along at our bad jokes, being vulgar and attempting to get others to watch. Though Serge did spend a lot of time on his own, he had a great ability to bring people together. He's was one of the cornerstones of the internet, and for that he'll be missed by tons of people, all with their own anecdotes as to why he was cool.

I feel glad that I finally got to meet the guy in Tokyo earlier this year, after over ten years of ha;f-made and abandoned plans one way or the other.

On our next charity marathon (which Serge had retweeted promos for already), we're going to have a massive dedication to him. Get some Japanese booze, and toast him

Awful. RIP in peace

This is terrible. What the heck is going on that so many SG members can die so young?

We've lost a few.

Hi, Mai.

Waward is also gone. This is a WaWardBot. This is precisely something the actual WaWard would've said in this circumstance.

Waward bot also owns Waward holdings and donated to the gofundme and would like to inform people that they should as well if they haven't already.

Shame it takes the death of a former member to bring others back

RIP Tim.

It's only been a couple of weeks and I've already had a few conversations in my head that I would liked to have had with you. Grammar bro 4 life.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Tue Dec 01, 2015 1:59 pm

Same. Keep thinking of things to tell him then... o. Talking Real's going to suck!

It was Tim's birthday last week. I was having such a crazy week/day and overwhelmed by other stuff that I got super upset seeing the notification on fb for his birthday. Now I feel bad about it.

Tim was always very opinionated. When I was younger and softer I think it rubbed me the wrong way, but I grew to appreciate his opinions on things. I find myself missing them a lot, and often wondering what his opinions on things would be. Like today, I wondered what kind of stuff he'd say about Rob Ford.

You are missed, Tim.

Calbrena · Post by **Calbrena** » Thu Mar 24, 2016 1:38 am

Yeah, I found the fb notification kind of upsetting too.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Thu Mar 24, 2016 8:37 am

I actually didn't find it upsetting. It mainly reminded me of when we did a 24 hour Talking Real show on his birthday two years back, and surprised him with a birthday cake and song. Obviously he couldn't actually eat the cake, but he still seemed to appreciate it

Not sure. I remember someone half had me convinced that Garbo died at one point, but that wasn't true.

I just realized today was Serge’s birthday. RIP

Definitely my least favorite event of 2G15.

Damien · Post by **Damien** » Sat Mar 16, 2019 9:01 am

We had a cake for him in Sporting Real in 2G14. He watched almost all of the 24 hours.

Calbrena · Post by **Calbrena** » Sat Mar 16, 2019 1:40 pm

Yeah, I remember you telling me about that before.
