Halfway Down the Mountain

In exactly six months, we’ll be saying “Merry Christmas”, “Happy Chanukah”, “Dig Infinity”, or the various equivalents so popular among humans of Planet Earth (it’s actually a moon, but who’s counting). We’re already halfway through the year, but it feels like only a few weeks since last Christmas, right?? Like I warned ya at the beginning of 2014, I’ve clipped some of the superfluous days out of the year, so it’d go faster. You’ve undoubtedly noticed a few discrepancies in mysteriously missing “days” of the week, and noted perhaps that I’ve lengthened the hours while shortening the number of days in the month. It’s not just to get Space Buddhaa back here faster, honest, although that’s part of the plan; I only clipped the days that would have sucked had they happened, anyway. I hope you appreciate the shortened year, and we’ll have a regular one next year, I promise. My whole purpose in re-writing the .ini file (I never mess with the .exe) to shorten the year was to demonstrate exactly how uniquely subjective time really is, and that videogame technology works quite well in an ordered universe like this one. Say, by the time we’re at the New Year, you should have a good grasp on Thursdays!

See You At The Top!!!
