Don't Panic

It really is good news, y'all. Andrew leaked it to the other mods already. Some time ago.
That said, until the green light is given, Andrew, FT, and I should probably keep our yaps shut on it.

Andrew really really wants to tell people. But he's not supposed to until the ball turns green...
 
Is this news actually going to affect the running and/or focus of this website? I have heard elsewhere that QLI's Traveller license runs out at the end of August 2010, is that true?

Perhaps it is good news as in, Professor Farnsworth:

"Good news, everyone. Tomorrow you'll be making a delivery to Ebola 9, the virus planet."

or...

"Good news, everyone, you'll be making a delivery to the planet Trisol, a mysterious world in the darkest depths of the Forbidden Zone."
 
The ball was supposed to be green last week, but something happened, and Andrew hasn't even told the rest of us what the holdup is...

And what new banner??? (Firefox hadn't uncached the old one for me; until Cryton told me to refresh it, I was still seeing the old QLILogo-pic-pic-pic-pic-pic banner)
 
I must say that this "big annoucement" seems to have been rather bungled. Among all the noise in this thread, the mod announcements seem to have been along the lines of:

Mods: "Everything is under control"
General reaction: "huh?"
Mods: "Something is going to happen here, trust us, it's really cool"
Mods: "Any minute now!"
Mods: "Well, that should have worked"
Mods: "Hey look, new banner picture!"
General reaction: "yay?"
Mods: "Um..."
Mods: "Don't look at us, we don't know what the delay is..."

Come on, this has been going on for over a week; whatever it is, just spit it out. My guess is that CotI is under new ownership, since the banner doesn't mention QLI anymore. Am I on the right track?
 
Hi

I suspect its like I previously though. Hyper Intelligent Monkeys have seized control.

Man, I hope we get the the real Travellers back to the place, and flush some of the not-so interested here.

Yes, because what this place really needs is more "Traveller Purity". :smirk:

If there is a change afoot, then I hope it is a meaningful and positive change. A friendlier and more welcoming attitude all around would be a nice start.
