Happy New Year from all us clones

Happy New Year from all us clones. I was having problems with clones yesterday as I went through debugging the Chronomancer quest. I think I have most of the weird issues sorted out. The other amusing bug is that I accidentally froze the PC's animations and she drifted from point to point after that, like a statue on wheels.

I think most of the big issues are sorted out. I've yet to run through the entire thing, though I've extensively tested each phase and several blocks of phases. I also want to go through with a spell checker and do some careful editing. This is a writing contest, after all.

The word count is at 4,500, about a thousand over the theoretical limit for the contest. Fortunately it's supposed to be a target, so I think I'm safe.

I also had a solid hour for writing, thanks to my daughter who can only nap in the car. I started in on the Firestarter quest, which I'm liking so far. The word count should be much lower, so I can spend that "extra" on nice things such as journal entries, conversation branching, and the like.

Tomorrow I return to work and life theoretically returns to normal. I'll be reading e-mail then and hopefully catching up with the real world. Wish me luck.
