Good people,
My apologies. I rarely miss deadlines, and I feel terrible about it. I don't like what it does to my position, and I don't like what it does to the game's balance. I wasn't able to make these deadlines, though I should have had preliminary orders in.
I woke up recently with a feeling that I couldn't keep my balance, as I walked up the stairs my shoulder kept bumping into the wall on the right, and I missed the chair when I tried to sit down. My wife called our doctor, and she suggested I go to the ER to check for signs of a possible stroke.
The doctor checked me out, and wasn't sure what the cause was. Since I was still out of balance and had a slowed thinking process, I had to stay where I was, and was out of email contact for (a week? days? not really sure).
I'm back on email now, and feeling better. We're still not sure what caused it, but I'm healthy and young (and invincible!, right? right?), so we're moving on.
Best,
Jeremiah
