I know a lot of us were iffy about the Obama thing, but I forgive you. I had the same impression when I first read it, it took a second read through and a little thought to see what he was really getting it.

Until next time, I hope. Thanks for some great writing.

Hey Tori,

I'm one of the many Kotakuites that enjoyed your writing, and hopes that you will come back and write again for Kotaku, at least on a "guest writer" level.

Your writing had sparked some pretty interesting debates, and also inspired people to think every now and again, which is the mark of a Kotaku writer IMHO.

Let this not be a good bye, but rather a "see ya later". Because we'll never know where we may read more of your writing.

Right, Tori? :)

Ms. Tori, my fellow Canadian, if you still want to try out my Wii, the invitation stands anytime... (You should really get your own Wii though, wii-lly...)
Hope the writing experience for THE most popular gaming blog on the web will pad your resume up a little!!

Tori - you've done an awesome job! I'd definitely like to see you back sometime... Especially appreciated the story on accessibility.

Anyway. For what it's worth: thanks much.

mtvernon

Good luck! If ever you need someone flamed over the net you know where to go right?!

Are you going to be in any wild spring break videos? That'd be the first Kotaku scandal...Just kidding!

Drop in and trim Crecente's hair once in a while.

Hasta luego, Tori! Maybe I'll bump into you in the Tdot. ;)

Enjoyed your posts while you were here. Good luck.

Bye Tori, may you move on to good (Better? Impossible!) things from here. Your reportage and features have been much appreciated, and always worth a peek.

Pombar

Wait, what?! You were only here for like a month? How can you be leaving already?! On spring break, no less.

Jamez

Great having you here! Hope where ever you land your travels are good ones.

Good bye Tori.

Best of luck to you, Tori! Oh, and before you go, take a sharpie and write your initials on the wall of the bathroom in Kotaku Tower. News stories and postings come and go but bathroom graffiti is forever =P

gcZanmato

Best of luck, Tori. I can only imagine your experience on Kotaku will open an impressive carrer on the field...and hurray for your taste in Pijamas!

Shiryu

Bye, Tori! Thanks for all your hard work.

Hey, I just had a great idea... Brian, why don't you bring back Tori as a guest writer once in a while?

MagWheels

As A fellow student(I think you were or are one) I wish you good luck! Don't drop writing, you were good at it! ^_^

Be cool, Tori.

EvoAnubis

Tori,

You did good work. Best of luck ....

StephenTotilo

When I had little time and simply read headlines of stories, your little writings didn't even stand out. That, I believe, is a positive thing in that your quality and style of writing is similar to that of the other writers for Kotaku. Looking back specifically to your writings, I see that they are very well done. Good look and I hope you come back to write occasionally if not often!

Darthvinder

Good luck...you'll be missed!

Hey Tori, just because you're no longer an intern doesn't mean you have to leave, hell this place is like the Hotel California, you'll be back...

@Sloopydrew:

PS - And while you've grown used to it, most employers would frown if you showed up to an interview in pink pajamas. So you might want to break the habit. ;-)

GAME OVER ALREADY?

Girls on the Internet? NO WAI! ;)

Wish you the best, your articles were great, especially the work and play gallery.

Candlejack

You never did look inside my living room -- or at least share it with the rest of the Kotaku Kingdom of readers (the photos I took never made the update). But, despite that one oversight, you've done a great job here and you'll be missed. Good luck in the future and don't forget to drop in and say "hi" once in a while!

Sloopydrew

-sniff- we will miss you... I mean, it's not like you see us girl gamers everyday... good luck out there! n__n

Good luck, Tori. Enjoy the real world again now that they have unchained you from your desk.
