I am boldly predicting #13 comes late tonight (12/10/14) into tomorrow morning. :P

Proof that as a soothsayer I am far from sooth!

Impatiently waiting - do you suppose that our author reads our pleas and times his snippets to our crescendos? :roll:

Let's divert ourselves... What's the price of rice in Harchong these days...Maybe the snippet will come faster that way.

Hmmm ... 12/11/14 09:18 Snippet #13 :mrgreen:

So I was (technically) right in that #13 came in the 'morning', but I failed to take into account that our beloved author might sleep-in. Time from #12 to #13 is 10d8.25h. Predictive power of previous statistic is ... effectively zero. We may get #14 for Christmas or, if RFC chooses family over fans (I would, we are a smelly lot at best), New Years!

I think it's regularly 10 days between, unless a vacation, national holiday or natural disaster intervenes, (see the snippet index and correct for the couple of clear errors in it) so I would expect the next one sometime on Sun 21, or maybe Mon 22 if he's not working weekends. I hope that's not near enough to Christmas to get sucked into the black hole. Last I read RFC works nights, sleeps mornings and early afternoons and does family stuff when school gets out, so the posting times can be odd.

So far with the 13 snippets delivered so far there have been 12 intervals. of those, 3 were 7 days, 2 were nine days, 2 were 10 days, 2 were 11 days, and there were one 12 day, 1 thirteen day, and 1 nineteen day intervals. The 19 day interval was due to the trip to Europe. The average has been 10.4 days. Make of it what you will.
