Breeding Update

Site Update

Little update on the breeding front. Kaiyo (and the rest of staff) have been being vague about my situation since it involved my health and some... less than ideal situations, and they didn't feel like it was their place to talk about it publicly. I appreciate that and I want to let you all know what's been going on.

I got behind on things in December of '16 when I had a work accident and ended up with brain swelling and a whole lot of not-fun stuff. I was almost caught up with everything last week. (Horray!)

Then on Friday I was in a 4 car collision. Been in the hospital, Kyu updated staff for me on what was going on, and now I'm back home in a neck brace and a whole lot of pain.

Basically the last two years for Mauri can be summarized by this:
2016 - "I threw so much bad luck and crap at Mauri I win."
2017 - "Hold my beer."

So don't touch me, I'm apparently cursed. |:

On the good news of things, besides 2 lists and a chunk of breedings that need mistakes fixed prior to finalizing I'm basically caught up on everything breeding-side, minus my inbox. Additionally we're working on ruling Breeding Mistakes 5.0 and will soon send those rulings out and get all that stuff worked on asap.

I've also trained someone to help with MBC and Derps, and am training someone to help with RBC. I want to divide and conquer so that the cruddy situations of a single person don't take down an entire feature for a period of time. That's been in the works for 3 months now, thank goodness.

I am in the need for some more helpers but that will need to wait until I can focus on my screen enough to respond to people. In the meantime, if you know how to edit % check pets feel free to send me an email to [email protected] if you're interested in volunteering some help with some breeding-stuff in the future. Include your username and ID. Note: My responses may be sporadic or delayed for the next week or so.

I love you all and I'm sorry things have been a bit cruddy the past few months. We had started training people to avoid just this and unfortunately my life went to shit twice in the process before our trainees were ready. <3

Mauri, what terrible luck, thank goodness you're still alive after all that!

To RBC trainee: Remember that we had a RBC event in December 2016, which -- if it hasn't been dealt with fully yet -- may necessitate you to roll breedings submitted on certain days for possible special results? ;D

β™Ž Astra β™Ž (#16365) - No worries there. Kyu still is assigning and invoicing all artists, and rolling all breedings. :) My trainees are just helping me finalize lists.
