Mag Dailies - time for a change?

It's been brought to my attention that I don't update the Mag Dailies thread enough. To put things into context, when I took over in January I probably updated near enough every 24 hours, sometimes more if I were online a lot.
As the year's progressed, Real Life has taken over with illness and house renovations, meaning sometimes I simply don't have an internet connection at all, sometimes just a phone on which it is impossible to update the Mags list.
Updating began to average around 2-3 times a week, and I went AWOL for a week with an unscheduled hospital stay. And then a scheduled stay just after that ...
I know that come Nov/Dec Real Life will only get more hectic, and I don't want to have people being annoyed with me ...
So, if anyone wants to take over. That's fine. Leave a note below.
If not, I'll just continue doing as much as I can do (I really don't mind carrying on with it) and hope people can forgive the ad-hoc nature.
I just want to make it clear that this is not my moan ...

Ditto to all the above, and I add my heartfelt thanks for all you do. Maybe (trying to be the devil's advocate here), the person who is moaning assumes you are a paid team member? Some people just don't realise how much purely voluntary effort goes into this board.

why can't people simple get ONE link from your thread? The other comps t each mag appear on the page, lots of the same answers so do not need each one up dating, whoever complains heed to 1 get a life or 2 do it themselves, ignore the idiots you are doing fine. Real life for most of us gets hectic this time of year, Keep on keeping on0

I don't comment on here much any more due to the constant backbiting but I would love to just say that you are doing a great job.I cannot see why anyone would complain to you. If you miss an update it isn't hard for anyone to realise there must be a problem. Thank you for all your effort in keeping the thread going.0
