A Title Much Cooler Than Anything on the Old Site
Scott is no longer doing Acq Inc after PAX South so you should update to indicate that.

Where was this announced? Any reason given for why he is stopping?

That'll be a big loss and will really change the dynamics. It'll be hard to find someone to take his place that will have the same chemistry.
