I love the unintentional Kock Bloch joke ya guys unwittingly made.

Nä. Not unintentional. Hafspajen (talk) 08:25, 3 January 2015 (UTC)

• Agreed! I laughed out loud more than once reading this.—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 17:47, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

• sigh* It took me six months to get FA on AI Mk. IV radar, and no one put it in The Signpost. Feel the love :-( Maury Markowitz (talk) 20:28, 12 January 2015 (UTC)
• It was in The Signpost- I wrote the section myself. Who cut it out? Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 20:39, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

• It's in the next issue- the love will be felt :) Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 20:43, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

• Ahhh, the delay, it's killing me! Perhaps you might find it interesting that the FAC took longer than the Battle of Britain, which seems ironic given the content. :-) Maury Markowitz (talk) 20:49, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

• I might just mention that ;) Xanthomelanoussprog (talk) 22:53, 12 January 2015 (UTC)

Aye, sorry about that, Maury: we need enough time between the list being finalized and the issue being due to get things ready, and we use the weekly archives at WP:GO for what's in an issue. We used to use the immediately previous weekly archive, but that only gave three or four days to prepare an issue, so it was pretty easy to run into problems. It's a little slower now, but we've at least been able to consistently keep to schedule without too much stress, even with people going on holidays and the like.

Don't worry about it, I was being a grinch. Maury Markowitz (talk) 01:36, 13 January 2015 (UTC)

@Maury Markowitz: The whole point of this series is to make sure that good content is celebrated. If you thought we had skipped you out, you had every right to be upset. It's just, luckily, we hadn't, we just have a funny schedule. =) Adam Cuerden ^(talk) 03:13, 13 January 2015 (UTC)
