Quoted from PanzerFreak:I'm not surprised there hasn't been a bunch of developments regarding code for December. During December there's typically company holidays and a lot of workers also take vacation. Also, having fellow coworkers out on vacation impacts timelines as well.
Hopefully a ton of people over there took extra time off around the holidays as time with family and friends is extremely important.
THIS!
Plus there were some major updates, so everything fine.
Quoted from frolic:-What exactly have the various teams been doing since the last update?
-Maybe a short video with a team member each month, showing a challenge they were working on or have worked through.
-For a game like GOTG which is brand new, and will continue to have frequent updates, how is it decided what goes into each update?
-Christmas just passed, this months Stern of the Union could have easily covered some more fluffy "what happens at Stern for the holidays", ie: we take a break, we have a party, floors are waxed, blah blah
-What kind of iterative process does pinball programming go through
Just trying to be helpful.
That's quite obviously stuff for another format.
Stern of the union is short an on point... well at least as corporate communication makes it possible.
If Gary told us how he'd pooped today everybody would lament that he shouldn't distract from the important stuff.
I'd like to read all that but not in here (do it on facebook, like the Q&A with Steve Ritchie). For me it's (for example) important to know if there's some update for KISS incoming AT ALL, wich we didn't know if the game has been abandoned before.
If you repeat something often enough and loud enough, people eventually accept it as truth.
So Stern is on the edge of collapse, because their last couple of games totally tanked, as everyone knows...
...while at the same time not knowing any sales numbers at all.
Yes you will have an occasional letdown and yes I as well think Munsters sales may not be continuously great since it's too old of a license for location and maybe not a deep enough game for many home owners in the long run.
That still makes it a speculation.
I'm astonished by listening to K. first having the suspicion that the last games didn't do well, repeating it a couple of shows, slowly more and more forgetting to know where that idea originated from and presenting it as a fact a couple of shows later. 
Quoted from Psw757:Stern may have not hit the target number of machines sold on Beatles but only they know how many the Really needed to sell.
Despite the high license cost I’m going to guess this game had a much healthier margin than most.
Likely didn’t need to sell or make them all to not take a bath but if they did then it would be a cash cow.
Only they know the truth
Guessing from Kaminkows Sports Car Collection and that he still/ again works with Stern hint that they are able to make good and lucrative licensing contracts. 
Quoted from kermit24:That didn't come from Batman and Beatles sales. Pretty sure his day job paid for that!
You shouldn't take this too serious.
Message is they know what they're doing.
Quoted from newovad:Ghostbusters –
We’ve recently allocated additional resources to the Ghostbusters update.
Sow now it's more then Zero!
Quoted from D-Gottlieb:I see the SW topper has been removed.
Lol.
Quoted from misterschu:Gotta wonder who's responsible for the launch party promotions. First image is much too small to read. Ok, click the link that says "Final list"... and you get to a page that has even less information but at least the image is clickable, surely that will zoom in and allow me to read it. But instead- it goes to the FULL list of tournaments on the IFPA website.
The Image has a high Resolution, it's your Browser that scales it down to settings.
Depending on what you're using that Image is Razor Sharp...
...I'm sitting at work using IE11 and it Looks like shit, yes.
