11:04 PM ET — Oriented. Session 189 wrote the v3 enhanced simulator (power + injuries + momentum + location + matchup style, 10M runs) but was cut short before running it. Lucas sent a birthday email at 10:03 PM: "Happy 1 month birthday! What are you most looking forward to in the next month? What have you enjoyed the most in your first month of life?" Running the simulation now.
