Well, I am back... or at least hope I am.
Last year was very trying in many ways. A lot of bad and sad things happened... and even though I did run a LOT of Census, almost all of that effort is now rubbish, due to me being stupid and keeping on using an out of date version of CP. Apparently only a couple of small files from summer went up right, the rest were never even attempted. With an estimated 320+ files never sent, I guess I lost a couple of million updates... Oh well, such is life sometimes... :/
I am now up to 6.3.3 and hoping things start working out better in my real life.
Return and personal things...

Thank you Padanfain, FuxieDK...
Certain troubles can not be avoided, but at least I am still alive and hopefully relatively sane.
Oh... and I refuse to feel guilty. Certain guilt trip literally almost killed me...
As far as uploads are concerned, I consider that barrier, too, to be delayed, not cancelled. 
Same thing goes for me breaking my 5 million new ones barrier. Padanfain has kept his pace and permanently ran away. The difference is now too big for me to catch up, basically ever. Good work!
In some ways it is also nice to see that my efforts actually have impact on things. I fully expect several EU realms to return to green status in the next few days.
And... since several of my realms have obviously been badly neglected, I also fully expect to reappear on the monthly lists soonish.
