GM Missing - Jacob Traeger

The GM of 1142, 1165 and possibly others, Jacob Traeger, has been off 
the radar since 28 December.  A friend posted on 31 December on Ngame 
that Jacob was having minor ISP difficulties, but we haven't heard 
anything for the past 2 weeks.  My e-mails (unsurprisingly) have 
bounced since then.

Does anyone know Jacob and is able to contact him by other 
addresses/means?

How long should we wait before finding a replacement?  I'd rather 
give him the benefit of the doubt, but I've never waited 2 weeks to 
replace a player before.

Is anyone willing to step in once we reach the point of replacement?  
My guess is that there's only a few more years in 1142 at least.

N.B. A player from 1165 was also looking for Jacob on Cat23-1100 just 
now, so presumeably he may require a replacement GM too.

Cheers,
Stephen
