This Week at ADB, Inc., 31 July - 6 August 2011

Steve Cole reports:

This was another "normal" week for ADB. The design team continued working on many future projects, while the production team seems to have caught up with the surge in orders. The weather this week was hot, often over 100F, but we did get a trace of rain on Saturday. The spam storm dropped below 100 per day again.

New on e23 this week is Captain's Log #43: Supplemental File.

Steve Cole decided that he would make a little bit of progress every day on multiple projects. He updated the list of retail stores, finished Communique #68 and sent it to the staff, finished LDR ePack #1 and sent that to the staff, did one of the Gazetteer update files, did seven FC scenarios for the bank of ready to publish scenarios, did multiple playtests of Star Fleet Marines, sent Joel the stuff for Hailing Frequencies, wrote reserve blogs, did some of the ships for boosters 31-32-33, reviewed a fiction story that might go into Captain's Log #44, did quality control inspections on 2000 FC map panels, did the revision six rulebook for Romulan Attack, and sent Mongoose information they needed.

Steve Petrick worked on the update for the Omega Master Rulebook, trimmed books, and made the daily post office run.

Leanna kept orders and accounting up to date.

Mike kept orders going out, rebuilt the inventory, and managed customer service.

Joel used the rebuilt uber-PC Thor to do website updates and chase pirates. He also helped Mike.

Jean managed our page on Facebook (now at 907 friends), proofread things, and did some marketing.
