Um, read the post carefully.

Nowhere in it does he explicitly say TCB won't be released today. He just says it won't be released "as planned". Who knows how they planned it? They could have planned to release it a week from now, or maybe they're talking about the CD/downloadable formats in which it's gonna be released. In the Q/A thread, Oneiromancer uses that exact phrasing again, "TCB won't be released as planned". Sounds like something suspicious is brewing.

I'd say it's not quite time to give up hope yet. Stick around for the Illumination.

Yeah, he said they were aiming for a March release, and that didn't happen. Okay, it's April now!

If anyone purchases and sends me a hat, I'll at least chew on it a bit and take some photos. How's that?

[Puts on the lawyer suit]

Technically, he didn't say to which year's March 31st it would be released by. Therefore, he could have been talking about March 31st, 2008. Or 2010. Or 2100.

Technicalities are fun.

Terrible Lies: Today they told us that TCB will be delayed... they opened a thread where we can search answers for our questions. Of course all things said are terrible lies! Or do you really belive in a swordless Beethro?

Unexpected Truth: TCB will be released (at least the windows demo) and we can see the truth.

If the game does get released, it'll totally ruin my swedish test tomorrow :D And with further lack of self-control, some math and history after that. The optimal date for me school-wise would be on Thursday at noon, but on the other hand, I still want to see it as soon as possible.

It's a "win + lose / lose + win" situation...

No, win + (lose / lose) + win = 2win + one.

Yep, and therefore 2win + one = won.

And since won = one, 2win = 0, or win = 0. Which means that when you win, you get nothing.

Whine! You can't post something like this today and NOT release it. That's just cruel. Look what you've done. I can hardly leave the forum for a second :D

Maybe if we all sit in a big circle, close our eyes and concentrate really hard on TCB, something will happen.

I think they've kept Elfstone waiting a little too long. Where did I put the green ones?
Oh, wait, I have to kill the monsters before they appear, now. :p

My Grannie used to say "Patience is a virtue" and she was a wise old lady.

Anyway it's still April 1st here so it must be April 1st in the USA where the Great Lord Erik is. In fact I think they may have quite a bit more of April 1st to go over there. :rolleyes

Another thing my Grannie used to say was "Patience will be rewarded".

Now, after me: "TCB will come to us. TCB will come to us. TCB will come to us. TCB will come to us. TCB will co . . . "

Actually, if I'm not mistaken, he's not in the US atm. However, I believe it's still April 1st where he is.

So will we have to wait, for the release, until he returns to the USA I wonder? (Frantically trying to calculate travelling time from Europe to the US.) :~(

much as I'm all about eagerness, I propose a couple things:

if you find out about TCB a couple hours late, it just means less server load while you download it.

if you're having fun doing something else, you're having fun already (it's a tautological that way)... but my point is, fun is distracting.

if you're not having fun, then move on to an activity in which you are. I suspect clicking the forum over and over and working yourself into a ulcer with nervous anticipation is not actually fun. it's just bad for the mental and possibly physical health.
