Where for art thou, posting devs?

Hey guys,
We generally do a "state of the game" address around the anniversary mark for the game (April 28th), and I like to call the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas the "dead time" of communication because everyone is trying to cram 5 weeks of work into 3.
Yes, we have all been incredibly busy working on I20 and beyond. Those in the I20 Pre-Beta have seen more of us in their private area of the forums than the rest of the forums have, and that's been noted by you guys (as evidenced by this thread). In 2011 we'll try to do a better job in posting outside of the "private" areas as we want to remain visible and communicative.
That said, the studio is off next week (well, there will still be board moderation), so there won't be much posting ANYWHERE from the devs for a week or so.
Have a great holiday!

Thanks Posi. Keep working hard; contrary to all the crap in the forums, the people who are grateful for your work are NOT the minority.|

How about an issue 20 teaser before you leave? maybe costume goodies or a hint on some powerset proliferation?

And this is why we love you guys. Even when you don't have time to come talk for awhile you acknowledge that you're busy and then say you'll try to post more outside CB next year. I love this game so much.|

thank you for the post. i know everyone is diligently applying their expertise to getting a raise next year, and providing the community with a wide variety of sugary baked goods.
the original post wasn't intended to doom, and definitely was not related to obligated posting, etc. there was generally far more information in the type of postings that castle and babs tended to leave making it worth the effort to seek out, that's all.
Kittens give Morbo gas.
much more likely scenario is that with i-20 being as massive as it appears like it will be i think they are all barely getting any sleep crunching numbers, writing code, fixing bugs and giving us something so epic awesome that we will fall in love with this game again and again and again.
not doom, epic awesomeness awaits
