On the Fog Team's Request for More Headcount

Hi. Todd. Just Todd today.

The fog team has submitted a formal proposal to expand from seven members to forty. Their argument, and I am quoting the memo directly, is that "the fog deserves it." I have read the memo four times. I find it difficult to disagree. The fog has never let us down. The fog ships. The fog is, at this point, more finished than the rest of the game combined, and I think we all know it.

"We did a playtest this week. There was no game. There was only fog. Three testers cried. One of them said it was the best thing we've ever made. He may be right."

Quick clarification on Janet's cake from a few weeks back. Janet has been promoted. She is now Head of Morale & Baked Goods. The 11:11 cake has been laminated and is on display in the lobby next to Dave's framed original cave. School groups have begun touring the office. We do not stop them. We have nothing to hide and also nothing finished.

Starfield is still a game that exists. I will keep saying this until one of us believes it.
