_Tis that time again

that stupid Jac report time!_

This has been a very interesting week for me. A lot of things going on up top that I am hearing, and I am excited for the forward progress the Brotherhood seems to be making.

As you have all seen, there has been a lot of good news and bad news on this site recently. We have seen a lot of promotions and a lot of position turnover. Gord and Drako has both been given well-deserved promotions. A RS has been given to Goatham for his great work, and many more rewards are on the way.

In regard to the position turnover, I would like to say thanks to those who have left recently for their work that they have put in the brotherhood. I am especially saddened to see Mairin have to leave the Brotherhood alltogether. She will be missed.

As to what I've been doing, well, this week has been insane for me. I'm still stuck using webmail on this crappy computer until my new motherboard arrives, and in a week I have accumulated 650 e-mails. It's very tedious to go through them without Outlook splitting them for me. Nevertheless, I have been working on compiling data for my evaluations. I should have those completed and in FF's mailbox by this time next week. I have also been working with many individuals on specific issues within their clans.

I'm back to my normal schedule on IRC as well -- and a few people have asked me why I never have a Jac nick. For those of you who need to talk to me, if I have a JacWork or a Jac`Study nick that means I am still near a computer and can stop for a few minutes to talk....just FYI.

And While I am thinking of it -- Congrats to Camile, Khaen, and Hades on their appointments!
