Hey all:

Just a quick update.

The testing has slowed a bit. I think a lot of our testers are on vacation BUT we still only lack a bit more testing in the PBEM section. I'm currently working on some AI improvements ao it's not like we're standing still. I hope that we can rap this thing up this month BUT at our current pace, I'm not sure we can do that!

Thank you

This brings an old question of mine up...
"rap this thing up" as in available to customers or I deliver to matrix for distribution? In the latter case - what would be the delay induced by Matrix (i.e. how far between developer delivery to availablility to customers)?

BTW - I did not know testers were allowed to have vacation...

Are they insane? Playing with their lifes like that...

Let me second this request for information! I can personally vouch for... hmmm, lemmee think.... five or six copies of EiA selling once that baby is released!

But seriously--although I was serious about the sales thing--I think that eg0master's question is a good one. Please, don't keep us in suspense.

I think it is a close race for the title of "Most Dead Forum" Award between EiA and GoA......

Well all I could say, if I was asked to be a tester for you, it wouldnt have slowed down because of me, thats for sure.
