Cheers to a new year and another chance for us to get it right. — Oprah Winfrey (b. 1954)

• Happy New Year!
• The players who inadvertently failed to receive the v1453 compensation experience did eventually receive it at the next opportunity, in v1458.
  
  But due to another oversight — a new and better one! — they were accidentally re-awarded that same experience again in v1462. That left the original set of players short a few ranks vis-a-vis their “untimely” peers.
  
  Today, those players receive their second dose of XP, leaving everything shipshape and the universe back in balance. Phew!
  
  (Also, the gerbils responsible have been, uh... re-educated.)
