User blog:Catinthedark/My apologies

Over a month ago, I was asked a Lua question, and this led to my suggesting a project that would initiallly serve to automate the hexagon levels (for the purpose of identification in lists, on level and episode pages, wherever), and, if extended, would produce a database-layer that could be used to improve the way we currently handle other characteristics of each candy crush level. The idea would be to provide a single place where each bit of data is stored, and simple APIs to access that data to serve purposes of the presentation layer (i.e. the wiki pages, who can be edited by many, even inexperienced editors). This would involve a fair bit of work and some collaboration would be needed, but everyone would need to be on the same page, and coordinate efforts so that the different bits all fit together.

I realise the above is probably cryptic and/or lends itself to multiple interpretations. And because of this, said I would provide some sample code to illustrate the concept, and then post so we could all sort out who might do what. I asked for your patience as I was to do this after some work deadlines let up, which should have been about a month ago now. Needless to say, never happened. I am very sorry about that. There are good reasons I could neither have forseen nor avoided (urgent lodging issues, illness), nonetheless, I let everyone here down, and for this you all deserve my sincere apologies, in particular Wildones, Primetime, DCG, and Mulligan who were either involved or some vested in the activities and to an extent waiting for my promised participation.

For now, I will not make other promises because things are very busy again. Rather, when I see that I have an immediate window of opportunity, then I will pop in and do what I can do in the time I have, to prevent this type of thing happening again. I don't like having my time wasted, and by the same token do not like to waste others' time either, and I find this very embarrassing. I can only offer you all my heartfelt apologies, and hope that you will accept them.

Thank you

Cat.
