    No, I will be at 8. Team Merchandise Booths and We'll Get 'Em Next Season work only at the end of the whole game, not at the end of every match.

    So uh, apparently Vassal has choked and I lost some save data. I also saw Queen Nefaria in the wrong team's discard, so I dunno how fucked up the save file got.

    Are we calling this because the file is too corrupt?

    ... just like the refs!

  • StericaSterica Yes Registered User, Moderator mod
    Sorry, school started up and it's kept me away.

    I am sorting through the file. It still works but I basically have to redo a lot of old actions and I'm being meticulous with it so there's no mistake. I hope to have a field report some time this weekend.

    So my professor gave us homework over the holiday which really slowed me down on top of Memorial Day stuff. I'm aiming to be all caught up no later than Thursday.

    YL9WnCY.png
  • robinlambertrobinlambert Registered User regular
    Deal.

  • DraevenDraeven Registered User regular
    Also factor in the wildstar action and bobkins there might be on hiatus for a brief period of time

    rZX4BnS.pngYou know Jim, I hate these half-time shows. They skimp on the violence and it feels like they take forever!
    Well Bob, you know how incompetent the people running these things can be... aKUkr3r.png

    @robinlambert @jdarksun @preda and @Cerberus‌ must all PM me if you haven't done so recently in your prior game PM. Due to a technical issue with the forums I am buried in about 300 PMs and this can't access them in a timely manner (don't ask).

    So we're back! After mostly fixing the issue...Vassal decided that it didn't want to have the Blood Bowl module anymore. This plucked my last nerve and I pretty much set the whole thing aside while I worked on school (and maybe played too much Wildstar). Now that my difficult class is behind me for the summer, I felt like I had to come back here and unfuck things once and for all. We're are incredibly lucky: apparently all but ONE of my six or so backup saves were fubar, and even that one required me to redo some moves. As a result I cannot ensure that things like the last few sprinting draws are accurate, which is why I need you all to find those old PMs and push them to the top.
