Heh...right. Trust me, I was tearing at my hair when the connection dropped in the middle of the Acacea/Elder deal and was giving me the standard "invalid password" message that generally occurs when the service has been disconnected. (Which it had been.) The incredibly bad timing could not be had by just anyone, I'm fairly sure... It's a special gift of terrible, terrible time warping that I must have been blessed/cursed with at birth.
Pan gave me the fill-in, so we're going to figure out what went down with the thing they were dealing for. Or something. Sigh.
So, apologies all around to everyone in the party that had to wait around and then go on with much confusion about the whole thing. I'm not really thrilled about it, either.
