How would I also go about getting my free copy of JtRH.
How exciting! I won't be doing the 2 essays I have for next week, it seems.

I'm going to work on getting downloadable copies to all the people who earned them in various ways. And also getting the beta-testers the release version instead of the testing build they have.

The CDs will follow later. I'm waiting for an order of CD cases to arrive, and there are a number of small tasks to complete to make the CDs really nice. For example, we are putting extra shareware demo/freeware games on them that people should enjoy and want to collect permission from authors to distribute more games than what we have now.

We should start shipping in a few weeks, and most places in the world will have the CDs in 3 to 4 weeks. For this first shipment, I'll send e-mails on file with CD orders to notify on the day I ship.

Extra things on the CD?

Hmm. I dunno, because we haven't finished deciding what goes on the CD. Most of the things on the CD you'd be able to download elsewhere--I'm not sure if all of it will be.

If anyone ends up bummed about buying downloadable-only instead of getting the CD, e-mail me (ErikH@CaravelGames.net) and we can work out a way where you pay just the $9 extra to buy the CD instead of full price.

I want to point out that Eytan Zweig deserves credit for writing the April Fool's announcement at the top of this topic. I wanted him to post it himself, but since he doesn't have a history of posting announcements it would have looked too suspicious.

So all those +1s really belong to him--not me. I'm just a big phony.

Has this been done yet? If so, *cough, cough* don't forget your friendly neighborhood pit thing over here.

If not, carry on, soldier!

Yeah, all that legitimacy and respect you've got, it's all just a big act. He's sellin' snake oil!

Sorry, just a bit excited. DROD.net is back again. Woo.
