This Week at ADB, Inc., 20-26 April 2014

Steve Cole reports:

This was a week of steady progress. The weather this week was warm, once reaching 80F. The spam storm mostly remained at something under 200 per day. Our website hit the bandwidth limit (again) so we upgraded to the highest available service package and our own dedicated server.
 

Steve Cole, Steven Petrick, and Mike Sparks took part of two days to help rebuild the Ramses Barrier on SVC's back fence, keeping the neighborhood poodles safe.
 

New on Warehouse 23, DriveThru RPG, and Wargame Vault this week: the fifth historical scenario for Battlewagon.
      
Steve Cole worked on art for Federation Master Starship Book, fiction (a short story for Captain's Log #49 and what may be a future cover story), blogs, and minis production.

Steven Petrick worked on the Federation Master Starship Book and the Advanced Missions SSD book (finished and being checked).
   

The Starlist Update Project moved forward with six new entries. Simone sent out 156 emails, resulting in nine updates and 98 non-contact entries move to archives.
   

Leanna kept orders and accounting up to date.
   

Mike kept orders going out and rebuilt the inventory.
   

Simone did website updates and some graphics.
   

Jean worked on fiction, managed our page on Facebook (which is up to 2088 friends), managed our Twitter feed (97 followers), commanded the Rangers, dealt with the continuing spam assault on the BBS, managed the blog feed, proofread the Advanced Missions SSD book and Federation Commander Tactics Manual, took care of customers, and did some marketing.
