Hey, Gang,

As you can see, there are (cough cough) a few kinks still being worked out with the Site Upgrade, one of which is our clock. It was set to GMT and because of that, tonight’s puzzles actually went live at NOON, my time (Los Angeles). I wasn’t here when it happened (nor did I know that it would do that), so all three of “tonight’s” puzzles gave about 45 minutes of solve time before I could pull them.

Which means some people – the ones who were here at noon – got the early jump on those “firsts.”

Sorry about that. Again, I had no idea this would happen.

Anyway… I bumped them all seven hours, so they should go live again at the right time (Heh, knowing my luck, the clock will get fixed before then and then the puzzles won’t go out until 2am tomorow – damn, I hope I can be here tonight at 7pm). The point is: for those of you who don’t show up here until around 7pm, please make allowances (hmmm… that’d be a neat Hyper answer) tonight and cut us some slack.

Thanks.

Think of it this way: a LOT of people this afternoon got, perhaps, their first ever top ten finishes. It’s like we all gave them a gift for the weekend :)
