A Nasty Post to Markus about releasing OOTP6

thomamon · 03-19-2004, 12:03 PM

Hi Markus,

I am writing to say, uh... No, I mean it, ummm... OK, here's the deal, ugh...

OK, one last time, you better....

No, no, this isn't working. I just can't do it.

OK, lets try this another way...

Markus, please, please, please, I am begging you for version 6. I am going out of my mind bonkers. Pretty Please with a cherry on top? I am down on my knees, what else does one have to do? I am going to be stuck in all weekend and I still haven't a clue as to when the game is coming out! Ugh. Shoot me now, I can't do it anymore...

TM

DISCLAIMER TO STEVE: As much as I anticipate the release of the gamel, this post was done w/no intent other then to make people laugh. I have no ill feelings towards Markus at all, I actually worship the baseball God that he is for bringing us OOTP!

how bout try getting a job you freak. im sick of coming to these message boards just to see everyone whining about the release of the game. for god sakes give the guys some time to make it right. thats all we need a release of ootp6 before it is ready just to have everyone start leagues and find there is bugs that disrupts our leagues. lets have the game 100% before it is released.

ps. this in no way indicates that i am not truly excited for the release of ootp6 and today would be a good day since i have a 3 day weekend to mess with it!!

Oy!

hmm he didn't seem to be whining to me. I took the thread for what it was, a light-hearted post just meant to be funny. In fact, I was more offended by your reply, Pimpin. There certainly isn't any reason to call him names and bash him. I'd like to think the community is a little more mature then that.

Pimpinhockey · 03-19-2004, 12:32 PM

if you dont think hes whining then you havent seen the 15 other posts he has on here saying the same thing "please, please please release ootp!!!"

Does someone need to show you the ignore feature?

what's in here?

oh

thomamon · 03-19-2004, 12:40 PM

Eeks, sorry didn't mean to upset anyone. I honestly don't want them to rush it out and want it finished correctly, hence the remark at the bottom of my post.

Well, lunch time is over so back to work!

Ahhh, a job? And take away from the time play OOTP?

D Love · 03-19-2004, 01:01 PM

Any chance on Markus releasing OOTP7 sometime this summer? I know it'll be buggy, but I can't wait until 2005.

KurtBevacqua · 03-19-2004, 01:23 PM

Is anyone keeping track of the "Please release the game now" threads and who is posting them? Does the board have an official minute taker?

I ask because anyone posting one of these threads who later bitches about bugs in the game should automatically be barred from the board and have to turn their license back in to Markus.

I think this is very fare and I would agree to this for sure!

The scary part is that people could get 'Hall of Famer' status merely by their numerous posts asking when OOTP6 will be released and whining that it's not available yet.

I'll second the nomination.

Pimpinhockey · 03-19-2004, 02:23 PM

i think everyone wants ootp6 to be released equally or else we wouldnt even be on these message boards checking to see if any new news about the release is available. however i think making a new thread every hour with people saying "when is it gonna be released" or "is this feature in the game" or "put this feature in the game it wouldnt be that hard" isnt gonna get the game released any faster and its pretty worthless to even make these threads.

christmas doesnt come any earlier just cause you cant wait till dec. 25 and usually you dont get what you ask santa for so no matter how anxious you are you still have to wait until dec 25, and we ootp fans have to wait till its ready to be released!
