The entire OTW Board just resigned

schneefinkGood things first: The NY Riveters won their second game against Boston! They were horribly outshot, but Nana Fujimoto was magic in goal. Apparently they are copying the Rangers' strategy. It's not sustainable in the long term, but the NWHL season is shorter... The Pride are playing very well.
Now... okay, I don't even know how to classify what just happened. I was almost done writing a post about the complete and utter bullshit that were the most recent decisions of the OTW Board, in which I expressed my confidence that the situation would get resolved. (I'd heard people complaining about the Board, but I honestly hadn't realized it was this bad.) Then, a few minutes ago, maybe three hours after the initial clusterfuck, the whole OTW Board resigned. Holy shit. The only appropriate reaction, but I did not expect it to happen this fast.
We still have two Board members - the two elected in the last election who were not yet voting-eligible - and now... I guess there will have to be a new election? I feel so sorry for the Election committee, they are already exhausted.
More info on Tumblr, Twitter, ff_a and other places. I should have gone to bed an hour ago, but wow would I have missed things, so probably not quite now yet. I wonder what I'll wake up to tomorrow. Staffers who haven't been online the past few hours will get quite a shock.
