Eugenics War Update

So the website migration has started, and I'm not supposed to be making changes. Despite my better judgment, I finally went ahead anyway with today's public update, it is only half a dozen small files, but I'd rather not push my luck any further, so here's today's update on EW (it's a tiny chapt...

New Host, New Internet, and a Pain in the Butt

Kind of a long one, but here's the stuff that's going on now and a few things that will be coming up in the fall. Especially important is the upcoming Colour of Magic being delayed and that plan for the Discovery short episode situation.

New Project

So we hit our stretch goal, a new series! This is going to mean a change to the July rewards for Officers and up, but hopefully a good one. :-)The new series is tentatively named Crystal-Scape. It is a look at how the development of Henson's company lead him first to create The Dark Crystal, and then to create Fars...

Saw, or Gravity Falls

If a tree falls on my lawn, and no one is there to hear it, will anyone care if I ignore it too?

BTS and Site5

I thought I'd share a little bit of a day in the life with the new system, and use that to explain why the site will be moving to a new host next month.

Some Behind the Scenes, Mostly Rambling

My software problems, my cat problems, my tech problems. I'm approaching as many problems as Jay-Z.

Stumbling Forward

I talk a little about what the plans are, but mostly I just descend into self-pity. The gist is that right now the focus will be on getting all videos done two weeks before publishing so that early access is ALWAYS on time.

Scaling Back (and Punting the Cat)

The TLDR here is that I'm going to have to accept that I've committed to too much and need to scale back - April will muddle through, but expect starting in May for a bit less both in releases and rewards.Because I have no other way to know, let me know how you feel about any of the rewards so that I know wheth...

(Avoiding) Death & (Not Avoiding) Taxes

Today I talk a bit about what's been going on from my POV, a little about the behind the scenes. Mostly it's me complaining about taxes, going to the doctor, and fixing the house.

Changes for April

The file goes into more detail, but the quick version is that I'll be posting the special rewards (comic reviews, micro-reviews, etc) with a week scheduling rather than a date scheduling (e.g., this week will be Dragon's Lair Ep 4 and Micro-Review of Captain Marvel), with the hopes of making the entire process ...

Dropping Screws, Making Changes, and a Flood

Things plod along despite physics and the weather sometimes making them more difficult.

Update on the State of Things

Today I discuss the brain tumor, the real estate issue, problems with coding, and why the Sith Warrior is getting swapped with Dragon's Lair 3. Available in the attached mp3.

Always Moving Forward

My commitment this year was to try to take things to the next level. Try to make the videos better, try to make the rewards better, try to engage better, try to clear the backlog better. Things have been a little rough, but I've not let that dissuade me from this goal, and I appreciate that you haven't allowed ...

Update

So, we narrowed it down to three possibilities, all fairly catastrophic so we are going ahead with just building a replacement - as the forum noted, Ruby has been part of the show for a long time and while pieces have been updated, it's time to put her out to pasture. I've got all the parts and am having the sh...

Problems (again)

Well, I was hoping to go at least another month before a new problem turned up. Guess I was foolishly optimistic.The latest is a particular frustration, it seems Ruby has done all she can for the show, she gave out just as I was starting on the Sith Warrior review. I'm going to need to replace my pc before you get ...

Return of the Jedi (and schedule)

The full Return of the Jed review: http://sfdebris.com/rewards/ikw/bol.phpHere's the planned schedule:For Captains: tomorrow will be SG1: Jolinar's Memories & The Devil You KnowFriday will be a special Babylon 5: Eyes.Saturday will be Heart of StoneNext Tuesday will be (for Captains): JLU: Flashpoint and X-File...

Some awards changes

Hi everyone!I wanted to announce a further change to the Patreon rewards (no, there's no fee changes going on, at least as far as *I* know). These were always a work in progress, it's a bit hard to gauge precisely what things should be. I think, though, that a few tweaks are probably overdue (for the Redshirts,...
