The documentation is just one reason for the short delay. But we're not releasing it without the documentation.

What time zone is the Matrix server in? The reason I ask is I am in the pacific time zone and it's showing 8:20 pm for your posting while it's only 1:30 pm here. Thanks.

PS Just checked the members area and no sign of the patch yet. Not that I'm in a hurry I'll be going out of town tonight :(

It was posted at 3:20 EST. Not sure about the Matrix server, though.

No need to keep checking there. When the patch is up, Erik Rutins will post an announcement in this forum.

Some people will be sitting infront of their computer all day staring at the forum until it's posted.

It's good to have such devoted stalkers, er, fans of the game.

Actually, I'll also be hitting "refresh" even more than usual, so that I can then spread the word to other forums.

Well, sure, you have single-A, double-A and triple-A forums, with only the most skilled players and posters participating in the Matrix forum.

To be honest, I'm hitting "refresh" much more often on the homepage of my rotisserie baseball team. Darin Erstad got me a steal this afternoon! (But Robinson Cano is still slumping. And don't get me started on Richie Sexson.)

Yes, and Wang just lost his bid for a perfect game with one out in the seventh. This only proves that I stalk the Yankees as well as this forum. Don't worry about Cano. Never got into Rotisserie. I find the real thing frustrating enough. However, you digress.

I'm running late, it may be finished tonight but it may take until tomorrow. Sorry everyone, some family priorities came up that pulled me away from production work.

Just to elaborate on Erik's comments, creating the installer is rather time-intensive, so if it were to be done tonight, it wouldn't be done until midnight at the earliest. So, the 15+ of you hovering out there might want to go and watch a movie or something, because there's no chance of positive news for two hours at the minimum. Or, go to bed now so that you can wake up early and play...

Your early morning Sunday is Australia's night time and the night and weekend is ticking bye quickly...the question is, do I feel well enough to go to work tomorrow [8|]. I should do the right thing and play it safe, therefore in order to not risk passing my germs (real or fake) I will do the admirable thing and take the day off (just in case)[;)]
