The reason it skipped, as far as I can tell, is that I clicked advance week and a little pop-up showed up and said are you sure. So I clicked "advance," walked away for a minute, came back and the pop-up was still there so I assumed it didnt do anything and clicked it again. After I clicked it the next usual pop-up came to the middle of the screen that says "check-status." after a minute or two I clicked that and it was on week 8.

I will have to see what the other people in the dynasty want to do, but thanks for at least giving us an option.
