There is still a large-ish outstanding sum, but I'm encouraged by having received the outstanding amount over 60 days old. Just want to set the record straight. Should probably blog that, hm?

(meaning we get to hunt down a bankruptcy court to file 2 1/2 weeks of pay sheets) I find it amazing they are getting away without paying the people that help make them the $$$ I just don't understand that business practice. The employees (or contributors) are who you are making your profit from, they should be paid first! Can they really have a magazine (or convention) without them? I know their reasoning is pay the ones screaming the loudest first, but in the case of CK where would they be without the talent? Sadly we see this happening more and more.
