The Pledge Manager is revving up, and the 'smoke test' for surveys should be going out shortly! Basically, 5% of you will get your surveys to make sure everything is functioning appropriately, and then the rest of them will go out.

Behind the scenes, a proof for The Cog That Remains came in, and had lovingly suffered something of a formatting error. Small? Yes. Ignorable? Not for me, I'm afraid. As a result the digital rewards for Cog will lag a bit behind the others while I fight format demons and make sure that those who get the PoD version will be getting something I'm satisfied with. This is more of a bother than it should be given the reduced speed in printing that I mentioned in an earlier update, but it should still be resolved by the end of the month.

That's it for now! Fingers crossed that it's the smoke from a fancy cocktail and not a terrible server fire.
