I can understand your frustration and it isn't undue. Things were done without informing you as everyone is reacting to everything the best they can. So we do not understand where you are drawing this assumption that there would be a time skip for Alex. The prevailing assumption among the GMs was that Alex's heist would come [i]immediately[/i] following his encounter with Stark, as providing a time skip for one player when everyone else is ready to go wouldn't be fair to the others. What frustration, if any, is from us thinking that Alex was prepared for this to happen. This was something we thought was tacitly understood between us, but as you have clarified, it would not be so.

I had hoped it came across in my post that I was not naming one party as the sole cause of all our woes, but alas that was a failing on my part. And yes,  the hypocrisy of a lack of communication is disgustingly apparent, but there is nothing more to be done then doing better in the future. 

So I'm still of the opinion that you, gecko, Windel, and KoL need to get together to hash out some plans, but I hope we've cleared some things up now.
