Status Update (chapter 131)
Added 2020-04-20 22:49:56 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
Just a quick update to let you know that I've given the first half of the next chapter to my editors. I've written a little over 19k, so hopefully it shouldn't take me too long to complete the second half.
Stay safe in these crazy lockdown times. I hope you all escape the pandemic unscathed!
Best wishes,
Tefler

Can't wait for the next chapter.

2020-04-23 23:00:20 +0000 UTCI'm done! I'll just paste the two halves together and post the completed chapter. :-)
Tefler
2020-04-23 22:55:47 +0000 UTCI can see where you're coming from with regards to the Discord server. Rus is up to his usual antics, having announced the release of the chapter at least three times in the last hour.
Jedi Khan
2020-04-23 22:16:22 +0000 UTCdiscord is what gets me through the inbetweens of the chapters, especially when tef stops in

2020-04-23 20:28:06 +0000 UTCAnd I am assuming by the post above that it was yesterday and that we are hoping by the end of the day today we will get a chapter. The patreon chat platform leaves a lot to be desired and I have no desire to participate in Discord and deal with the thought police.
2020-04-23 18:12:17 +0000 UTCI suspect that John may flash their bodies over, however, if they haven’t been done already - and I don’t think that they have - to be twenty times shaped.

2020-04-23 18:04:49 +0000 UTCThe maintenance bots are not the same as the cleaning bots. The cleaning bots all have feminine personalities, while the maintenance bots are male. Plus the maintenance bots already have Dana designed bodies, they're just not exactly humanoid.
Jedi Khan
2020-04-23 17:37:37 +0000 UTCQuestion – I know that the cleaning bots got new bodies, what about the maintence Bots, or are they one in the same? I do not think so. IF they are, not all of them would need to be equipped for cleaning and some for working on the ship.
2020-04-23 17:16:01 +0000 UTCPredictions / Possibilities: Classic Tefler Curve Happens and we do not get to Olympus until the end of the chapter. 33% Resurrection of Faye- 15% Things Go Well with John’s Mom and Dad – 20% - With a Tefler Curve 60% Go After People that Attacked Olympus – 5% Heal injured in Attack – 70% The Truth about Tom Walker and the person that framed him – 40% Lynette and Charles get a playmate – 90% Invictus tests all weapons as a part of a general check after the rebuild – 20%
2020-04-23 17:12:18 +0000 UTCWistfully awaiting chapter 131. The irony is When Tefler uses wistfully I can just picture any one of the girls staring off in the distance their eyes just a little out of focus is all of the yummy thoughts go flying through their head. Wistfully has become a term of art in the three square meals universe. I would be very interested to do a word count throughout this epic saga and see where that word ranks.
2020-04-23 17:01:45 +0000 UTCInteresting...does that mean a two chapter month for May as well (stares wistfully with hope in my eyes at Tefler)?

2020-04-23 05:07:46 +0000 UTCFuck yeah!

2020-04-23 02:46:36 +0000 UTCWOW...we are ready when you are!!!!!
Arrowglass
2020-04-23 02:06:54 +0000 UTCJust a quick update. I've written 26k so far, so if I get another solid day today, I should be finished by tomorrow evening (23rd April).
Tefler
2020-04-23 01:08:21 +0000 UTCSo about Monday with hope for sooner?

2020-04-22 22:29:50 +0000 UTCCorona Virus? Covid 19?
Kensyi
2020-04-22 22:29:22 +0000 UTCOK, I'm dumb! What is rona?
2020-04-22 22:28:18 +0000 UTCF5... F5... F5... F5... F5... (Snap) Crap, I broke it.
Anthony Kester
2020-04-22 21:44:14 +0000 UTCNo F5s yet? Hmmm...? Maybe I am a bit too wistful?
Big Dude
2020-04-22 21:19:22 +0000 UTCNope you are totally wrong. It IS a thing hinterlands man, ever heard of a thing called science? But anywho this is not the venue to talk about that stuff. Here is a place to chat/worship TSM

2020-04-22 15:22:52 +0000 UTCJerry , when chatting with Mr. Tefler the other day I stated: the way this story is going we are looking at 5 years before we are even close to the sequel. his comment was priceless: Yeah, you are probably about right. I may also do some spin-off chapters on various characters like Fat Tony and the girls and he mentioned a few others. It was a great conversation.

2020-04-22 06:05:04 +0000 UTCI am repeatedly wistful, seems like a monthly condition. Doctor warned that it might increase in frequency - I can only hope

2020-04-22 01:43:29 +0000 UTCWistfully can get a bit repetitive.

2020-04-21 02:49:14 +0000 UTCI know I shouldn’t want this when the most important thing is that we’re all safe, but I’m so looking forward to another chapter to distract me from the pandemic. Hope this finds you, your family and all the fans out there safe and sound. 🙂
2020-04-21 01:32:51 +0000 UTCExcellent, thanks for the update. Looking forward to reading it as always.
