Derek,
I just received a shipping confirmation from EB Games that my Universal Combat order has shipped.
I thought I had cancelled the order but in my anger I must have clicked away from the confirmation screen too soon.
I called EBgames and asked how much I was charged and he said $39.99. When I asked him why I was charged that much when his website has it listed for $19.99 he immediately offered me a $20 refund or the option to have them mail me a return envelope.
Just thought you should know that it is indeed shipping from EB Games.

They heard the case today. The judge is going to give his ruling tomorrow morning.
If he grants the injunction, then DC cannot release the game at $19.99.
If he doesn't grant it, then they can go ahead and the only recourse I would have at that point is to proceed with damages as per the current facts of the case.
Good luck, I hope your lawyers used a little David verses Goliath in this one, because the Canadian judges really go for the Davids!!
Good luck SC, we're rooting for you!!

"Ahem"
That was an interesting read....
It's really odd, the way the guys with the money and the contacts like to push the little guys around. It's remeniscent of secondary school bullies.
What I really found funny during my days in school was that every bully I was confronted with, would back down if I responded in a threatening manner. A quick pop in the nose usually took the wind out of every one of them, so....
Seems it's time for the little guys to take a swing at the folks who haven't graduated from the Neanderthal mentality to the Homo Sapiens mentality.
I have witnessed the unscrupulous dealings of many busineses in my lifetime. If they weren't screwing their customers out of money to boost their profits, they were putting it to their employees.
It seems that publishers are no different than the rest of the greedy bastages out there in this world. They look for an Indie Dev to screw, thinking he/she won't have the resources to fight for what is rightfully theirs.
Bust them up side the nose, SC. you can doo eet

Derek Give 'em hell.
As has been stated quite a bit here (and elsewhere) the BC series is a niche market product. And the memebers of that Niche are quite regular contributors on these forums.
Surely DC must know that we all support Derek in this and by doing this they will like loose the sales to the majority(if not all ) of us.
That sounds like a financially suicidal maneuvor on DC's part!
Or did I miss something??
