I should post an update as well since I started the thread - Sandy was awesome and emailed my turns so technically I received everything. I still think it's odd that nothing has shown up in my mail and I guess it will just be a surprise if my new round of turns that usually show up in the next few days actually do show. I'm assuming everything is back on track so I will keep my fingers crossed. Thanks to everyone for chiming in -

Lee helped me with my Cliffhome turn, I received reprint on Wednesday. I still have not received my Zukal turn though. Will mail update to Lee if I do not receive it today.

Are others seeing a lag in RSI mail when compared to the electronically posted Newsletters?
I mention this since I have always gotten DM-35 mail on Saturday, except for this weekend. Maybe it's simply due to the 4th of July. However, I'm curious if there is a "trend"?
I'm asking because I prefer to read the fights before the results in the Newsletter. However, this time I couldn't wait. It takes some of the "thrill" away when you already know what happens. Just wondering if this was isolated or something happening game-wide.

It my case it seems to be the USPS. Recently I still had not receive turn 3 days before next due date, so emailed for reprint. Received reprint 3 days later. Original showed up in mail 3 days after that and full 2 weeks to deliver. It likely has to do with the USPS cutbacks in distribution centers, since all my turns from RSI used to come on friday or saturday and now come monday or tuesday.

I am getting lots of variation - basically, some RSI stuff is sent, some is not and requires e turn. (The snail never arrives later.) The stuff that is sent/received seems quite timely. I think RSI knows that something is happening at their end. I have provided data on all my "misses" and surprisingly, the same arenas seem to keep getting "missed". The guys on the HW side of things seem pretty convinced it is all RSI and not USPS. my other regular mail from Phoenix (non game) comes regularly and is never "missing". I have spoken to the local USPS (several times) and the Mgr assures me, and I believe him, there is nothing amiss here on the delivery side.
The issue is in AZ. It is either RSI or local USPS there or both. It is still continuing to happen. I know that I firmly believe it is one over the other.
Keep on asking for e prints (as snails are reported as having never made it) until it is settled.

As a follow up to my previous post ... I did receive the snail mail copy of the fights on Monday (had always received on Saturday). I'm not discounting the valid issue experienced by others, but I didn't want to add any unnecessary "fuel to the fire".
My speculations about the lateness are -- training the new person, 4th of July vacations & Federal holiday, and even "wild fires" in the area. In other words I'm hoping this is a one time situation. At least my example appears to be.
I'm sure it will be mentioned at the Florida F2F and some RSI assurances would be nice. Please pass along any official feedback.
