Whoohoo! Issues update!

Okay, I figure the boss is probably the one who ought to announce this, but bleh, it's big news! Good news! News many of you have likely been waiting for since sometime last year!

The mods are able to work on new issues. At the moment, we're just waiting for [violet] to approve our initial efforts (to make sure we've got the hang of the coding and all).

What this means, of course, is that there will be many, many new issues in coming weeks. :D

All right, I've seen plenty of misspellings of my name, but, I mean, come on! It doesn't even have the letter "L" in it at all. :P

Besides, I'm not about to stop promoting Apple Computers. iThink, therefore iMac. 8)

And to bring it off topic again:
Salusa, Sal, Sally, Salsa, Salusa The Molding, Sillius . . .

Salusa is not a misspelling, it's a reasonable abbreviation of your name.

Similarly, Cog is not a misspelling, it's a reasonable abbreviation of my name.

Few people attempt to spell my full name, but Cognition is a common misspelling when people do attempt to spell it.

Here's a hint people: "Cogitation" is a word in the dictionary (http://www.m-w.com)! :P

...

To get back on topic again, it'll be a while before the Game Mods learn the style that [violet] and Max prefer, but it won't be long, now, before new issues begin to appear. :)

Might as well remind everyone...

The number of issues right now is in excess of 3000. Not everyone's issue will make it, and even if it does, it may take a while for the GMs and SalusaSecondus to get round to it. As you can imagine! :shock:
