And although the thread deletions were the main reason behind the cancellation, I can't deny that the opt-out drama didn't have anything to do with it - I'd already had enough crap thrown at me from that, so I wasn't prepared to take any more.

Finally, my apologies for getting a little too heated with my side of the argument last night, but it still stands and I'm glad most if not all of you understand where I'm coming from I may reconsider doing the 2012 ceremony in the future, but until ALL of the ceremony threads are returned to the forum (including 2011) - whether they've been locked and moderated or not - I'm not budging.

Well as I was the catalyst for the opt out part I apologize matt.
I'm sorry too to anyone who was given a hard time in relation to the suggestion of opt out.
