Truth be told, I didn't start my files to gain attention. But they gathered attention, and I liked it, and made more files, and got better at it, and got more attention, until finally damn near everybody treated me as the a be-all, end-all source of wisdom on certain subjects.

And I dig that. I really do.

But, I haven't kept the faith with y'all. Busy as I've been with everything else, I've neglected to update and upgrade the site. I look back at some of my pages and cringe at the Horror-ble things I've done to perfectly innocent spellings and grammar.

So I went many hours without sleep to bring y'all an update. I didn't get to everything (more's the pity), but I'll try to keep up on it more regularly.

Anywho, the SR/ED links and Blood Magic pages have been revised, cleaned up a little, and are now up-to-date through State of the Art: 2064...boy, did they need it.

The Orichalcum and Invae pages have now been brought up-to-date through State of the Art: 2064.

I've added a Theran Glossary to the end of the Sperethiel Dictionary page, and two new artifacts to the Artifact Index (which has also been cleaned up, thank you Namergon).

Last, but far from least, I'm pleased to present my long-promised Codex Or'zet, an Orkish dictionary and grammar.

So, uh, yeah, that's all I got. I promise I'll clean up more next time, I know the transcripts are in dire need of another go through and I promised I'd break the massive blocks of text in the Immortals page down, which also needs updating.
Sorry for so long 'tween updates. It won't be so long next time, I guarantee.

Hey it's cool, the amount of work and time you've put in is more then 99% of us do anyway, so it would be rude if we started whipping you to get something done as it's only a hobby and off your own back.

Good God! You aren't actually apologizing for not being OCD, are you? We'll takes what we can get and be glad of it! AH, your work has helped me enormously and hightened my enjoyment of the game. I am glad and eager for every update you provide, but don't you dare feel an ounce of bad if your life keeps you away.

Years? Years. Ghost, has it been that long? Well, Hell, I can only hope it's gotten better since I started.
