You guys have done it again. Today I received a Christmas/Birthday card so thick it's probably more accurately called a book. All written, collected and sent in secret. You are amazing.
There were well wishes, there were poems, there were songs and artwork and short stories.
There was also a DVD that contained all of the RPR adventure videos that have been made to date.
You have once again completely overwhelmed me with this incredible outpouring of love and support. There are no words for how special something like this is. The impact a few kind words have is often many times more than what you think -- to get so many together is like receiving a super charge of joy and awe.
I had big dreams for the repository when I first started programming it, but I never imagined it was even possible for it to become the bastion that it's become. I hear from people all the time who feel that it's become a second family and a safe haven for them. And perhaps more than anyone, that's true for me, too. I love you guys. You make this place awesome. I love your support. I love your silliness. I even love it when you disagree with me because time after time, you have all demonstrated a gift for being reasonable, representing your point of views with grace, and a willingness to examine different perspectives. Where else does that happen on the internet?
With all the hours and hours I pour into working on the RPR, there can be no greater reward than knowing that you appreciate it, and that it is useful and fun for so many of you out there.
Happy Holidays, everyone. You've just made certain that mine will be.

Aw man, I totally missed that! Sorry, Kimasaurus! I'll find a way to make it up to you.
