Live blogging is a practice of careful listening, and I have a long way to go in that area! So if you see something that I misunderstood or misreported, please post a comment/correction.

To the dozens of supporters who have found us here, thank you! To our hardcore advisors and leaders who have come here to vote, thank you also. This process has been an amazing journey for the Amoration/ManorMeta team; as this project has gone underground for the last few months we haven't been out there talking about the detail development work happening behind the scenes at AMO Studio. Thanks for keeping us in the spotlight and helping us to find new partners, supporters and friends from Japan to Israel!
