This Week at ADB, Inc., 12-18 September 2010
Steve Cole reports:
The weather this week remained comfortable, although it did hit 100 on one day and rained a little on Monday night. The Spam Storm kicked up more and more, with about 600 hitting SVC's computer on Tuesday and Wednesday each, with over 1000 on Thursday and Friday each. A local printer came by and asked if our bookbinding machine could do some of the smaller jobs he doesn't want to send to Dallas or Austin. We had an electrician come in and install a separate power circuit for the new bookbinder.
It's a "normal" week at ADB for most of us as work continues on several projects, although things are getting very busy for Steven Petrick as his Module Y3 is due for release on 27 September. He has finished the SSDs, ship descriptions, and annexes, and is working on scenarios (and complaining that none of those sent by staffers or players were usable). Steve and Leanna disappeared for a long weekend to celebrate their 33rd Wedding Anniversary.
Steve Cole got some marketing stuff done, and continued to work on Marines, while supporting progress on Y3 and the Café Press upgrade. He continued doing updates for the Wall of Honor (all of the Fleet Captains were updated, and the first of the pre-Doomsday staff appeared) and trying to find a way to print Booster #93 without losing money on it.
Leanna kept the orders going out and continued to work on the first Kindle Book, while helping (and pushing) the project to get Café Press working. Leanna reports that Alliance sales in the last two-week period were up 71% from the previous two-week period.
Mike Sparks kept the orders going out on time, and worked with Joel on the Café Press project, replacing some corrupted images, and making more of the existing images available on more products.
Jean Sexton continued to explore her new duties as Marketing Director, declaring that we shall do one new Star Fleet Alert per week, but will expand these to include such things as e23, Facebook, videos, SFBOL, FCOL, the Wall of Honor, and other activities. There are four mailing lists for Alerts (wholesalers, retailers, players, and media) and many won't go to all four.
