Whelp, I'm back to square one as far as D2 is concerned. My hard drive crashed a couple weeks or so ago and unfortunately, nothing was recoverable, so I lost all the progress I'd been making since this March. At least it was only a couple of high level characters and the stuff I found during the MFO, nothing that can't be replaced in another few months' worth of playtime.
Work has been horrible as well. Business is booming, but the staffing levels are dropping, so it's been 60-hour, 6 day work weeks for quite a while. Only had 3 days off last month. I don't want to look for another job--the benefits are good and I like my position (at least, when I get to work in that position and not cover another one due to people quitting/calling out), so I'm trying to just ride it out and hope things improve. On the bright side, I'm just about debt-free now and will finally be able to give lots of Christmas presents this year!
I'm gonna be taking a bit more of a backseat on these forums than I normally due for a little while, as I have a tendency to over-involve myself in tournaments/projects/what-have-you. I'll get back to fixing the formatting/links in the MPG Archive when work calms down a bit. In the meantime, I'm slowly building a Blizz sorc to reacquire some items.
Stay safe out there!
