Tis the night before christmas, and a quiet stretches across the land, all the good children have gone to bed. [>:] not a breath can be heard, but at the north pole santa and all his helpers are busily rushing too and thro. The excitment is building and as the last packages are placed the sleigh. And when the sun rises (about noon eastern yankie land time) all the children will spring out of bed to see what santa has left under their digital download tree.

I am looking forward to COG as well. But for me, a year ago Witp was the one I was so antsy over. [:D]

I'd suggest not doing that until you know for sure it will be ready by then. Nothing more frustrating than not being able to get something when you thought it would be available! [8D]

"Your sovereigns, who were born to their thrones cannot comprehend the feelings that move me. To them it is nothing to return to their capitals defeated. But I am a soldier. I need honour and glory. I cannot reappear among my people devoid of prestige. I must remain great, admired, covered with glory."

I don't break for lunch until 1pm EDT. I will be checking the boards noon time to see if the game is available (besides, my place of residence is just around the corner from work). [:D]

Unfornunately I live in a country town, no modern wonders here or ADSL, [:@] the general store still pumps petrol, no Maccas, KFC or Hungry Jacks, but 20 clicks down the road my regional city has all that I need, a co-operative computer store will D\L the game and put it on disc for small fee

Sounds great!

The only thing you're missing out on is high speed internet, otherwise, sounds like a great place to live. [:)]

Less people = less traffic = less stress!
