20 hour days make me cranky. Especially when I'm working on stuff that a vocal minority seem to be begrudging (i.e. we're doing this polish this week because we care about the game).
I apologize for being a jerk. So that we're clear, I am a jerk but I'm usually better at covering it up when I've had more sleep.

Brad, most folks around here have thanked you time and again for your hard work on the game. I know I certainly appreciate it. On the other hand, some seem to forget that that hard work they thanked you for was actually that -- hard work.
While I don't enjoy the company of grumpy people, I've spent 20+ hours in front of code for days on end before myself, and I can understand why that would make a person not feel like putting on a happy face. Part of the uniquenes of Stardock is that the CEO is a coder/gammer himself.
In short, thanks for the hard work! I appreciate it and recognize that it is incredibly draining to be a CEO and a coder and a project manager and the complaint department. Keep up the good work, and don't feel too bad about letting the drain show a bit.
