Jao didn't quit modding because her setting didn't win, anon. There was a lot of personal stuff going on for her at the time that led to a big decrease in her time. We knew she was leaving well before the last vote went up.

I haven't seen or heard anything from her since she said she was getting sick, either, like her co-mod said, so I'm just hoping nothing bad happened to her.

EDIT: Oh well she plurked about being sick so she's not dead at least. That's good.
