I'm not sure what happened, but somehow, the live chat reader turned off for me. I'm not sure why, (I could have sworn I tested it during this stream), but I'm guessing it was a Safari issue on Mac. I am sorry for not responding to any of your messages.
For future reference: I have been doing live streams because it makes me happy to see your live chats come in, and I love responding to them. If you send something, and you don't hear it get announced in some way during the stream, that means there might be a problem. If several messages come in and I don't acknowledge them in some way, that means there is absolutely a problem, and I am likely not aware of it. Fortunately, this will not happen again for my next live stream, as the Byte Bender and I have worked out a way to let me know if there's some kind of issue with chats being read properly. I don't think he'll be able to double check me every time, so I'll try to work out a better solution at some point. Again though, I'm sorry for not seeing your chats. I was pretty upset about it for the rest of the day, and I'll make sure it doesn't happen again.
