Mostly sorry.
I was all raring to kick off UGWC with a bumping OOC environment, and I had all these plans to really bring everyone together as one big family.
I've never been slack on feedback, and I try to jump in and write the odd match here and there if the weekends end up free. I also usually make a habit of reading all promos even if I don't comment, and I thought my predictions were finally starting to take hold.
However, as is always the case, real life took a couple of swerves, and it kinda screwed up my plans. It's all I can do to get a promo out lately.
This isn't a quit letter, don't worry, heh. Just an explanation.
If you care to know, both managers at my store got promoted out to other positions, and I have had the duty of helping the new managers slip into their role at our store more comfortably. Basically this means I have to do all the manager paperwork, hiring, firing, scheduling, ordering, etc until they can get used to our numbers. Also, I've been pegged by the corporation to 'retrain' all of our employees (this is happening at every store). On top of that, I've been helping my cousin and best friend plan his wedding, and any of you who have been involved in that know how much of a hassle that can be.
The icing on the cake is that I've found a house and I'm moving at the end of the month (which means I'll need time off again, sorry).
So, really I shouldn't even be here right now, but hell I love the game and I really like this place and the people here, and as always, the escape is good for me.
Just don't expect me to do all the extra until the chaos settles back down again.
In the meantime, bear with the fact that I can't do as much as I once did, and it's not that I'm not paying attention or trying to learn all the new characters (Enigma, heh), I'm just struggling to be able to get in here and do my part.
I'll be back eventually to full speed, so that's that.
Anyway, mainly this is just an apology for my lack of work lately. Sorry!
