Our Pal Khotko

Some of you may know It is just Khotko, others may not.  He was hot sh*t in Russia and was well on his way to becoming hot sh*t here in the US.

Khotko's a really cool dude, with a wicked sense of humor and genuinely adds a lot to the community here.  Many players focus on game mechanics.  And that's totally reasonable, this being a game after all.  But to me the only real appeal this game has is the people.  And awesome people like Khotko are the reason I play.

Khotko helped a lot with the planning of the XLYMPICS.  Here's the first Mad Libs test entry he did.



If you don't know by now, Khotko had a minor stroke a couple days ago and is in the hospital.  Fortunately he seems to be doing ok, but will be out of commission for a little while.

Some cool peeps wrote stuff for me to send to him:

"Ваше здоровье!"

"Khotko, sending wishes for a quick and full recovery and long-lasting health. I don't know you as well as I'd like but you have certainly enriched my own experience in the playscape we share. I look forward to good news and your return. 
Be well!"

"I legit thought he was in the gulag. Which made me sad at first, but my idea of what a gulag is has been very much tainted by repeated viewings of Muppets: Most Wanted. So, like he's singing Bpyz II Men with Danny Trejo?

Anyway...love khotko. Miss him. Hope to see him soon."

"Get well buddy! Take care of yourself and get back to us when you feel better. Sorry to hear you're not well."
-Inwegen


I'mma send him the link to this, so if anyone wants to write something nice or tell him to get back to work or smth, please do so in the comments below.

Anyway Khotko, I hope you're doing better my friend.  Get well soon and come back to us when you can!

Thanks!

Khotko's pal,
