That is not ideal management of your talent if they'd rather play elsewhere than stick around in your org.

That’s ridiculous. A truly brutal answer. Name one of your million scenarios that could have made it work? Players can walk, and it can have nothing to do with the GM… in fact, in most cases it doesn’t. They offered max term, max dollars. The players didn’t want to stay - name a single thing Tre should/could have done to convince them to live somewhere they didn’t want to.
