R_wilco Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 As you all know, BCM is being shipped sometime this week, but we don't know exactly when. So I'm starting yet another countdown until the end of the week. I was going to post a reason why, but at this point I've forgotten it. Ok, you can stop reading now. If you read this sentence, it won't tell you anything
LordDavid Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 Countdown to the end of the week? How many countdowns do we have here. Shees.. Next someone will probably start a countdown until Jesus comes back, or when Microsoft/Bill Gates goes bankrupt, or when Britney Spears will get ________ (you fill in the blank)!
Põdi Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 As Charlie Brown so eloquently put it;'Good grief!'
jstuart Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 Can someone please tell me how long it will be until we begin the "Countdown to the Final Coutdown"?Just a question?
Guest CacheCrash Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 You people should know that EBgames.com will not send the game this week. They always send the date that they choosed. Show it is going to be shipped on November 5th and it will not come out this week.
Guest $iLk Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 Actually if you read ebgames preorder page, it says the game CAN ship to those who have preordered 1-5 days before the due date.In fact, Civ 3 is in stores as of yesterday which is only 2 days earlier than the preorder date. We will probably see it by Next Friday at the absolute latest, soonest probably Saturday.
Thor Dazen Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 Its hopefully in Brantford's EB World now
Urza Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 quote: Can someone please tell me how long it will be until we begin the "Countdown to the Final Coutdown"?That countdown would probably be identical to the "Countdown to Derek's Death". (no offence) Sort of like a death clock. In other words, countdowns will plauge Derek until his death. As for my countdown to death, it's currently at T-minus 19,971 days!

Supreme Cmdr Posted October 30, 2001 Report Posted October 30, 2001 quote:Originally posted by Thor Dazen: Its hopefully in Brantford's EB World nowHighly unlikely since it hasn't even reached EB's main warehouse yet.
Xiron_Darkstar Posted October 31, 2001 Report Posted October 31, 2001 I checked my account at EBWorld and it says its Processing!On another note , I'm glad the Radeon fix will be up on release, nice!
Joel Schultz Posted October 31, 2001 Report Posted October 31, 2001 Hehe, so long as we're starting yet another silly countdown, here's some potential future countdowns to consider:Countdown to second patch (first is practically there already due to ATI's blundering) Countdown to MP patch (ok, I'm pessimistic, I don't really believe that MP will be out by the second patch either, but SC is free of course to prove me wrong ) Countdown to EFM Countdown to WW2 game Countdown to modern game Countdown to GCO Countdown to BCM add-in thingy for FP in ships Countdown to ATI fixing their current drivers (um, how long would it take to count down from infinity? ) Countdown to ATI releasing their first good drivers (same question as above) Countdown to bunnies shoving lemmings off their proverbial cliff in MP Countdown to lemmings stewing some bunnies for dinner in MP Countdown on Indies double-dealing everyone and ruling the galaxy in MP (hey, if Galcom=commies or lemmings and Insurgents=bunnies, what do we call Indies?) Countdown for the first person to take down SC in MP!!! Countdown to SC threatening banishment for starting a new countdown
Epsilon 5 Posted October 31, 2001 Report Posted October 31, 2001 Happy holloween everyone! Hey at least that one countdown that ended fast!
Fendi Posted October 31, 2001 Report Posted October 31, 2001 quote: Countdown on Indies double-dealing everyone and ruling the galaxy in MP Yessss..... I can feel it too. Join us and we shall rule the Galaxy.Oh happy holloween everybody, this year i'm going as a rally driver (colin macrae before he defected) with my ehem... new car. Scooby anyone?
Kenada Posted October 31, 2001 Report Posted October 31, 2001 My local EB first told me it was going to be in on the 16th of October, the, 24th, now they told me is was going to be in on Nov. 6th. I preordered mine at the store.
Korono Lakeela Posted November 2, 2001 Report Posted November 2, 2001 Well, here in cheeseland, the end of the week is 15 minutes away. All week long I have been waking up in the morning and running to the computer to see if there are any "OH SWEET JESUS, IT'S ON THE WAY" posts. Well, if it doesn't happen tommorrow, I can't wait until Tuesday!
Rosko Posted November 2, 2001 Report Posted November 2, 2001 Careful people......anticipation can cause extreme medical conditions!! Not to mention the overdoses of thousands of BC fans across America. I don't know about any of you.....but I'm already addicted.....game in hand, or not!!
Fendi Posted November 2, 2001 Report Posted November 2, 2001 quote:Originally posted by Rosko: Not to mention the overdoses of thousands of BC fans across America. Don't forget the millions across the world!! Remember a lot of people are looking for a game like this. The closest game to BCM at the moment is only OFP. And even then in OFP you are stuck on earth. Space, land and air battles ( lets forget about sea, I'm hydrophobic), how could you go wrong eh? This is THE GAME to have!!

Badgerius Posted November 2, 2001 Report Posted November 2, 2001 Who's the publisher? I thought this was an EB-Only party?
Supreme Cmdr Posted November 2, 2001 Report Posted November 2, 2001 Thats a standard email that goes out. Imagine what they have to go through with Blizzard's products.
