disappointed in shipping status

Crown of Glory: Europe in the Age of Napoleon, the player controls one of the crowned potentates of Europe in the Napoleonic Era, wielding authority over his nation's military strategy, economic development, diplomatic relations, and social organization. It is a very thorough simulation of the entire Napoleonic Era - spanning from 1799 to 1820, from the dockyards in Lisbon to the frozen wastes of Holy Mother Russia.

Oh, did I mention that I paid $16 for UPS overnight?

Now that's funny in your very first post you directly stated you paid $16 and now in your last post you are saying you didn't pay $16. So, if you didn't pay $16 then why are you complaining that you paid $16 extra? eh? ;)
The poster you replied to and the first poster in the thread are two different posters.

Duel accounts, that's a good one. Maybe I should try that out and see what kind of conversation/argument I could have.

And also maybe I could get one of the accounts ban from the forums. LoL

Well, considering that I've been around here longer than you have, perhaps you're the suspect with more than one account...[8|][:-]

No, I wouldn't say that, I'd say since you've been around longer you've had more time to think about it and implement it. ;) hehe Look how long it took me to think about it. ;)

Touche.
Your humorous cleverness is exceeded only by your patently paranoid imagination [:D]. I wish I was devious enough to do things like have double ID's but I'm not. [&:] Actually, I wouldn't even want to know. Nice try though! [:)]
And I still don't have my copy! sniff, sniff...[X(]

OK, now I'm really upset. I checked order status just now and find out that the game is "backordered." Very nice...not!

I ordered it at noon on July 1st and I know people who ordered it the day before got it already...so I'm screwed? And my overnight UPS shipping is for nothing? And no cancellations? No order revisions? Why not give "backordered" customers the option of a cancellation?

Digital Ripper is truly disappointing; and Matrix: this is no way to treat a loyal customer.

I saw a number of orders go out today from Digital River, but there is a backlog as they can only print so many in a day. I expect the rest will go out tomorrow. This is unfortunately a function of releasing it right before the July 1st weekend as soon as we possibly could. With Digital River closed for the holiday weekend, this created a problem catching up with physical orders when they returned. If you like, e-mail me your order # at erikr@matrixgames.com and I'll personally check on it in the morning and get back to you on when it will ship out. Thanks and I apologize for the delay.

Regards,

FWIW, I ordered mine the first day, digital download plus CD, and I received the CD today in Louisiana.

For whatever it is worth, while I know it must have been frustrating for some, I am glad you didn't wait to release it. The long holiday weekend was a perfect time to sink my teeth into this complex and thoroughly enjoyable title.

Are there any brick and mortar retail outlets that will have CoG in the very near future? I have an interest in paying cash and sneaking the game past a certain vigilant guardian of budgetary expenditures in the area of recreational software.
