    This Monday, the 21st of July 2014, Kouji suffered a stroke. He had surgery to remove the clot in his brain but suffered critical brain damage bordering on brain death. His family has made the decision to take him off life support; he passed on peacefully and painlessly this morning.

    This is a very sudden, big loss for all his friends at THD and within the KAG community. As many of you know, Kouji has been fighting cancer for a while, but seemed to be on the long slow road to recovery - to have all of that snatched away so quickly is an awful shock. His sense of humour, keen wit and insight will be sorely missed.

    While many of us are still reeling from the news, we should use this chance to reflect on all that he's done for this community and all the fun times we've shared with him; and to support each other and his family in grieving this loss.

    Never Forget.

    From his younger sister Karen:
    If you would like to pay your respects to Kouji, reminisce about any shared experiences or extend support towards his family, this is the thread to do it in. We'll be keeping the thread moderated so don't stress if a post takes a few minutes to appear. There's also a conversation with plans for an online wake via mumble and a donation pool for flowers for his family and a cancer charity donation for those who want to get more involved.

    Thank you Max, for summarizing this for the community. He has had such an impact here, and I'm sure so many other places with his family, friends, and online with people like us. Thank you to his family, friends, and doctors for taking such good care of him as he has gone through these trying times.

  3. I didn't know him very well, but he was a great leader in this community. I honestly had no idea what he was going through. If I had I would've gotten to know him better. I guess I'm too shocked to react properly. Condolences to all of his friends and family, I truly am sorry and I wish the best for all of you. He will be greatly missed by me and by many.
     
  4. Rest in peace, Kouji. We'll all miss you.

  9. I didn't know him well and only met him briefly, but in the several instances I've met him (along with the company of friends; the usual respite in between games and such), his...'impact' or say how invested he was into things really shown. Pretty witty at times that spoke of his character a lot.

    Rest in peace, Kouji. Condolences to all of those who knew and loved him. You'll be missed, but your inspiration and memory will live on; your family has raised an awesome example of a person.

  10. Well, if I knew this was going to happen, then I wouldn't have been so rude to have just a couple of days before. Rest in Peace Badmin. :QQ:

    The only significant memory I have of Kouji is him deleting all my forum likes because I said they were pointless. That was the sort of guy he was; truly a tragic loss of such a funny and well respected character. Props to him and all the time he dedicated to the game and these forums.
