I hope all is well in the dev world, we look forward to testing the fruits of your labor 
[edit: Dang it, I went to ambush a redname and got surrounded by a Castle instead.]

Sure, I understand. I was just clarifying the behavior so that it didn't seem to be this sudden change that the original post would imply.

I'd surmise that Matt Miller was not meeting managements expectations, and due to stress and health didn't think he could, despite the PR spin that there was no demotion. Personally I think the i13/i14 debacle, the ridiculous over the top AE leveling response, and the woefully enept job Marking has been allowed to do for multiple years now, are all signs of poor overall leadership. My guess is the brass has given management level ultimatums after reviewing last Quarters subscription numbers and the project status of Going Rogue and or i17. And I'm sure the stress has turned into frustration for many of the dept leads, just look at BaBs a few weeks ago. . |
Funniest thing I've read all day.
Thanks, I needed a good laugh.
If the game spit out 20 dollar bills people would complain that they weren't sequentially numbered. If they were sequentially numbered people would complain that they weren't random enough.

Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.
