And a missing IADoP report makes it hard for me to figure out who I'm supposed to be penalizing, as well as making it hard to recover from a lack of officers.) I apologize. I've been pretty busy lately; I'll get to it as soon as I can. Hopefully within the next couple of days. —the Warrigal

My report crossed with Henri's (meaning that I guess I've violated the rules in a trivial manner), but this means that we now have six vacant offices, and they're six of the seven that have reports. This is something of a major crisis, AFAICT. I'm going to blame it on the lack of an economy (which in turn is due to the lack of Scorekeepor reports, which is due to a bug). Perhaps we need interim proposals to reduce recordkeepor load just to survive when we're so low on officers. Apart from that, our main hope is to rely on revitalizing the economy, and/or the usual spate of September registrations (which may or may not happen; we should make sure we have the website /very/ up to date over the next few days in order to increase the chance it does). -- ais523

I take solace in the fact that so far, on each occasion when I've blamed someone for something they didn't actually commit, I didn't actually give em a Card for it. -- ais523

I remember researching that back when I did the 2-year correction. I'll see if I've got notes somewhere. It's possible I misspoke. Thinking about it, the Report as a whole may have been ratified one one of the many times when the Herald was tracking a currency. -G.

The list is unofficial but has been tracked for ages, and such persons are sometimes given penalties under newly introduced penalty systems via proposal.) FWIW, When I've been Herald, if they've been gone longer than a few months, I've only ever asked em to tell eir story if they remember it, then hit em with a wet noodle and take em off the list. Probably happened about three times. -G.
