[Update] Randal Uncontactable From 14 Nov - 24 Nov

He is back!

Randal Kline will not be in-world from 14 Nov (Wed) - 24 Nov (Sat) due to a RL deployment and would most probably be uncontactable during this period.

You can still send him note cards and IMs. For urgent cases, you might want to contact Lacy during Randal's absence.
