But the reason I've been offline for about the past month or so is because I tripped on my laptop's charger cord and kinda broke it. I managed to fiddle with it to somehow establish a charge without having to hold the damn thing together, but it's obviously not fixed. So for my last game, I got 12th only because I was unable to get on my computer, not due to any laziness on my part.
So there you go. Maybe after Christmas I'll have a replacement charge cord, but until then I'm just going to have to suffer the withdrawals.
