Does it really matter? Seriously. There are only three possible answers to your question:

1. Yes.
2. No.
3. Maybe.

I'll ask again, does it really matter?

If it's yes, then it will happen.
If it's no, then it won't happen and you'll be waiting like the rest of us.
3. If it's maybe, well, you'll be checking the site tommorow anyway, so you'll find out then...like the rest of us.

Sorry, useless question and an even more useless post.

Right now I would give it a 95% chance of happening. The final installers are being built, the ordering system is being tested - I guess technically something like a total PC crash here would cause issues, but given that nothing like this happens we're still good to go tomorrow.

Stevie Wonder,

Nah, I think I'll keep on exercising my right to waste my time, read useless posts, and point out the obvious...if I want to. And it WAS a useless post, no if's and's, or but's about it. Feel free to exercise your right not to read my replies from now on.

Oh, and have a nice day.

Well, it must not have been a totally useless post. It did prompt Richard to give us a new estimate on delivery probability and an update on what's happening at TGC.

Logan,

I have a theory on why he chose to reply, but that's a whole other discussion that I'm sure neither you nor anyone else wants to have with me.

I would like to point out how comical it is that this same question or same type of question (in spirit) has been asked before and was met with stern criticism and a prompt "It will get released when it gets released" response.

It's also interesting to point out how you usually defend those who post redundant posts.

Actually, I've never done that. What I have defended is the concept of asynchronous communication and the detrimental effects that a hard-line "search first" stance can have on a community such as this.

The post by Stevie was not "redundant", it was useless in that even an official response makes zero difference to the outcome. In addition to that, there are multiple threads just in the last few days that address the "release" issue, so it's not as if it was a question asked a month ago where the past answer can only be found in a thread on page 4 of the forum.

But hey, he got his answer...from the top no less, so who the hell cares what I have to say about?

Lock it? Next week is Valentine's Day in the US! How can you be so cruel as to destroy this budding, intoxicating romance? Can't you feel the love?

Then again, maybe they're just intoxicated with the idea of installing FPSC tomorrow.

IMHO, you should have locked it the moment it was posted. But, who am I to tell you how to do your job? Nobody.

Every single post on this thread (with the exception of Richards), including my own, are pointless and useless. Even Richards really doesn't change anything. We are all still going to have to wait until it is actually released.

Lock her up, David. You've had lots of practice, so it should be a big deal.

Although, I will miss the thread--any chance to flirt with SoulMan you know

Looks like you got something really caught in your eye. Lets take an ice pick to it to see if we can get that bugger out of there.

heh, it's still only just after 8pm 10th here still.
I was wondering something dunno if it had been asked before but since the release of the EA will be on a friday or today for some of you already, does that mean that tgc will be processing orders over the weekend this weekend?
I thought orders where only processed from them monday through friday does this mean if i don't make my order before there friday work hours are over, that i won't be able to get EA till monday if not ordered before a certain hour on friday there time?

Yes each of us will chip in and clear out orders sporadically over the course of the weekend, but not as frequently as during the week - we know you'll not want to wait, don't worry
