Thanks for the update Markus. Can't wait for the game. Being able to share a license on Mac and PC is one of the best things you could have done, glad to see you did it this year. Going to spend a lot of time on the game.

I am a programmer myself.

I know how wrong it would be to get pushy and beg for a quicker release.

I wouldn't do that.

Even if I had a 3 day weekend coming up on this, the first week in April.

Even if I were just about to start a new league and didn't want to start it with the new version looming over our heads.

No, I wouldn't do that

No sir, indeed.

Good luck with the final coat of polish.

We still have teams in need of a GM. Don't knock it 'til you tried it.

Just bought today, and ready to go. As soon as I get it, I'm going to take off for the lake where I have no internet service and sit in my trailer and play this game like it's going out of style! Just me and the squirrels. Well, maybe the ravens that are as big as roosters. (Anyone else notice that ravens or crows are getting bigger and bigger with each year? But that's another subject.)

What else would an interesting man do.... .....?

LOL, just once I would like to hear Markus say, "This new OOTP really isn't the best ever - I think it peaked with OOTP [fill in the year]."

Edit: Bruce, you fool. Be careful what you wish for!

I saw an enormous crow in the woods last week. It was twice as big as any other crow I'd seen before.

I could never start a league without internet. I need to find the logos and such and I use the internet often to facilitate setting up the league.

True; seemingly less intimidated by a human approach as well. In addition, at least in the Midwest, there has been a simultaneous - I suspect causal - depletion and almost disappearance of the bluejay.

We're mimicing the A.L. East Playoff races.

Is Steven King up to something?

conception · 03-31-2010, 01:36 AM

I'm eager to hear when the release date will be so I can eat a big meal and hibernate until it comes out.

Exactly. And it's been a year or more since I've seen a bluejay. I used to have several pairs of them in the trees behind my house.

Odd. Troubling.

Maybe next year the budget will allow a brand new set of internals.

An endangered species that is.

Why aren't more people decrying the smacking of orioles with red socks then?
