I don't look forward to posting these updates. Each one of these devblogs is a reminder of how much we're failing you. So here's what's been keeping us busy this week.

So, you wanted one of these every week, but not all that much has changed. We're still grinding away on the new everything. This code re-writing is kind of like a virus.
