posted recently by Doug Linden, good news!:

From: someone
Hey, all -

We'd like all of the residents to know that we've tracked down most, if not all of the problems affecting peoples' taxes and stipends/bonuses.

I won't go into detail on the problems we found, but there are a couple of issues that would have resulted in overtaxation (mostly minor), and one major issue that affected stipends and bonuses, which would result in some people getting bonuses lower than usual, while other people would get bonuses higher than usual.

We are currently working on fixing the problems so they won't happen again in the future, and also on making sure that we correctly compensate those who were shortchanged.

I can't promise an ETA on when this will happen, but it should happen soon.

Sorry about all of the problems - next week's payday should go much smoother.

- Doug

Minor? ACK! And by the way, this doesnt mention that dwell wasnt paid Sat-Sun or Mon.

Maybe you didn't get enough visitors? I know I got a lot of visitors (by my counting - my casino in Coney shows up on the dwell map pretty white) but didn't get a payment except 1 day (friday). I just assumed I didn't get enough 'dwell' to warrent payment.

I was wondering about Dwell, too. I got $41 for dwell on Friday, and nothing on Saturday, Sunday or Monday, and I am pretty certain I had about the same or more visitors at my place those three days as I did on Friday.

I'd make a pun about not dwelling on the subject but that would be wrong!

In short, dwell is broken. So no one has been paid for some time. The good news is, once we fix it, which we hope to be soon, we have the data to recreate who is owed what and you will be paid for dwell so no one will lose out on the days that it wasn't reported!
