  1. Hey all. I thought about just posting this as a status, but there is enough info in here. I don't want it to get missed.

    First, I have a ton of IRL obligations through this weekend, and then I am gone for all of next week. I expect to be back home July 27th.

    So this means a lot of things...
    1) Various voucher redemption, SS services, support is going to be delayed.
    2) EMC Birthday celebrations will have to be pushed back to the first week of August. When I know what we are doing, I'll let you know. It is possible that SS might have a small celebration while I am away, but I can't speak to their availability.
    3) Progress towards dev updates will be paused.

    Those are the main points of the update. To be more direct about dev stuff. I ended up being significantly busier this summer than planned. Hence things being delayed a bit. I hope to get back, and give about a 2 week notice on waste resets and a 1.21 update. That update is not remotely ready, so I cannot promise any timetables yet.

    I acknowledge that my "next steps" reply to this thread... well, they haven't happened yet. I hope to push the gas pedal on those projects when I return. A lot of my commitments are going to tie up, about that time.

    Anyways... thanks for understanding. I will reply back if I think of more things. Just a busy time right now. I am like... quadruple booked IRL... Kinda in a pickle. But it will work out. :)

  9. These days I don't play as much anymore but it's always great to know that I still have a "home" to come back to. This November will be my 10th year here. (My god how! lol)

    You've always seemed to go above and beyond to keep this place running regardless of player count and it's easy to forget that when things get releases slower then some might like or if something gets changed, etc., but do know we are extremely grateful that you are still dedicated to doing all this. Take all the time off that helps keep you refreshed for EMC stuff.

    To you and the dev team, a huge thank you and looking forward to the new stuff after your return.
