Unfulfilled Promises

[kingandy]

January has come and January has gone, and Maelstrom has failed to materialise. Allegedly the mailshot has/willsoonbe gone out, but that's just not good enough. We were promised January. I demand my money back!

It's something I've found myself saying a lot lately, but is no less true for it: if you give somebody something for free they get annoyed when you take it away. And even if you know it belongs to you - you were being generous letting them use it for a time - you feel bad about depriving them. Especially when they look up at you with their big, brown doe eyes and say "Oh please Andy, I won't be much longer, I just have to finish chatting to everyone then you can have your computer back..."

Really, it's like kicking a puppy. Which is why I found myself watching the X-Men movie last night. Sigh.

Must resist.... urge to provoke response....

Your right... we have no right to expect anything. However... this game has provoked an unprecedented level of expectation. It seems to be far exceeding even GDs pre and post event hype.

Its all the more amazing considering the short space of time its been done in.

However..... (theres always a however)

Most of us need to acquire costumes, sort out backgrounds etc, and we don't have a huge amount of time. I've got even less time, because I need to sort out stuff for Everichon a few weeks before.

So.... please understand our eagerness/impatience (delete whichever causes you most annoyance).

Perhaps we could bribe you?
