I did not want to say anything until the domain had actually expired
That MapleLeaves name was offered to me on namepros a few years ago when I first joined them. The member contacted me and for months told me what a great domain it was.
MapleLeafs.org is what I ended up buying because I actually had to look it up to check if Leaves was a real word. I was so used to seeing leafs that I had never even considered Leaves.
In the end even the Maple Man himself passed on the domain so let it expire is probably a good decision.
(Did I just talk about myself in the 3rd person?) Yikes!
