Update posts might have been tardy of late, but the same can not be said of actual updates - wow!
A thank you to everyone who has contributed to CASA during the past few trying months. (Plus a personal thank you from this not so active admin to the admins who have been putting the work in, I'll try to up my game in the future.)

Here's a much overdue update, posted in the middle of a global crisis which makes anything I have to say at the moment fairly pointless. Possibly many of you have too many other concerns to care a great deal about adventure games right now, but hopefully for some text games will be the perfect way to spend time while a lot of us are forced to stay at home, anyway. I sincerely hope that everybody is safe at the moment. Please take good care of yourselves, whereever you are.
Due to other obligations I have had very little time for CASA as of late, so props to my fellow administrators for keeping things flowing. I've just noticed that we've crossed the 8,000 games threshold. Very impressive!

Can you believe this? You actually made it to the best damn college in America! Yes, the Philip Urwin Edwards College (P.U.E. Tech.) in Cambridge, Massachusetts. You never thought that you would get in (with grads like yours the Home Economics College of Alaska was a distinct possibility), but what with all the unexplained disappearances, the high percentage of suicides and a number of bizarre happenings, they were short on applications and you got lucky.
The first semester has flown by and things are just dandy. There seems to be an unending stream of parties to attend, so most mornings begin with one whopper of a hangover. Even so, life at the good old P.U.E. is not a complete walk in the park. The odd disappearances have become much more frequent and the locals have started reporting weird disturbances. Since most of this stuff seems to happen late at night around the old campus (you hardly ever go there during the day, let along in the dead of night), you aren’t unduly worried for the time being and put most of it down to fraternity high jinks.
This is all very well but all the hard work you haven't been doing is catching up with you. There's an end of term assignment to be handed in at 9am prompt tomorrow and you've decided that tonight might be a good time to start it. To make matters worse there's an absolute blizzard raging outside which seemed to blow out of nowhere. Having managed to struggle over to the Computer Centre at the old campus a long, long night of typing (thinking is optional) awaits. It's getting late and if you don't do something soon all hell is going to break loose... literally.
