Pfff... It just takes you too long to answer the questions I txt you. You're good for the first 20-30. After that, getting a response from you is like pulling teeth.
Edit: I might be done as of this moment. I'll check it again tomorrow, and send it then. I'm off work tomorrow, because I have grand jury duty. But I don't have to be there until 1:00, so plenty of time to make sure I got this right.

As a point of interest, Inferno and Acropolis deadlines were the same day. You're late for both.
Anyway, from my point of view, all player turns are in. I expect to have results out by the 13th or so? There's about 85% confidence in that date. I'm doing taxes this weekend, and we're doing some construction on the house the following weekend, so I'm banking I can get turns done in little blocks through the week instead of in a big burst over a weekend. If I miss that, then results by the 20th.

Officially, the deadline is always the 1st, but since I don't usually start processing turns until the first full week's end, there's a substantial grace period.
"It is not the literal past that rules us, save, possibly, in a biological sense. It is images of the past. Each new historical era mirrors itself in the picture and active mythology of its past or of a past borrowed from other cultures. It tests its sense of identity, of regress or new achievement against that past.”

So, I'll take this opportunity while I'm sitting on this conference call to share some administrative updates in the guise of cryptic hints.
You might have noticed that the "What is Known" thread is now a post by Nybbas instead of me. I have decided to hand over most of the public dissemation of information to a player. In effect, "What is Known" is a compilation of player known information, managed by a player, based on what that player knows. The rest of the players may feel free to provide input to Nybbas. (This also means that Nybbas can be wrong, and Nybbas can lie. This is Hell, after all.)
It looks like I'm on track for having processing done by Sunday evening. Maybe. Figure about 85% probability of that. If not by Sunday, then by Tuesday.
This decade, the shape of Hell will change. Divine prophecy become known for the future of Hell. And, I have been forced to decide that the history of the universe that contains Inferno is nothing like the history of our own Earth.

Ladies and gentlemen (and Fist). My final project for school is due on the 31st. Between that and a two week trip for work, I've been... disconnected from the Watch pretty thoroughly. Since [Syl] also hasn't finished Acro turns, I don't feel TOO guilty... we're all equally behind schedule. But, I wanted to let people know that I haven't totally blown you guys off.
My sincerest hope is that starting in June, things will get a lot smoother all around.
