It's so funny how people blow EVERYTHING out of proportion so quickly.

So are you guys still tweaking the game today; or as you said before "even down to the last minute"? Or are you basically taking a big rest before the big day hits?

No rest: TESTING! You just can't have too much testing.

So, finally, what's the time the game is coming out? It's important for my health to know it.

The longer you sleep the better the chance the download will be there when you get up.

I'm about to go insane counting down the hours. Maybe I should take a sleeping pill and just sleep all the way through the next 24 hours.

That's what Michael Jackson said. Just take a breath, and try to think about something else for the next 24 hours.

I am listening to my newly arrived Thriller 25th Anniversary Deluxe Edition album, and watching Sliders episodes on Hulu (not at the same time).

Hi Timba, some posts before, somebody said that they usually release the games in daytime (USA Time), so i guess i'll take a little longer :-/

A US company timing their releases according to GMT? That's highly unlikely in the first place...

Wow. I just read this entire thread after pre-ordering the game. I've got a couple of questions that I'm fairly sure haven't been covered.

1) What programming language do you guys use? You also mentioned somewhere earlier that you use some custom stuff. (sorry I can't be more specific, this is a long thread!) I'm a British Computer Games Development student at University, but I've little experience of how a company actually uses the tools and skills I've been using. Sorry if that question's a little vague!

2) I read the worldofmi.com interview with Ron Gilbert (mentioned earlier in this thread). It came across that he was kinda grumpy that people had gone and continued the series in a way that he hadn't planned. But then you guys got in contact with him about this project. Is that grumpy face just a show or is he actually annoyed that the series has turned out differently. If he is, does that frustrate you?

3) I gather that this forum will stay open until at least the end of the series. I'm guessing you'll have threads where we can respond and ask questions about each episode as they come out. Are we allowed to suggest changes and new ideas, or does that come across as arrogant? (since you guys are the professionals)

I'm sure I'll be back with more questions after the launch tomorrow! Can't wait!
