No time was stated, so we're assuming at some point tomorrow. Could be at any time, I imagine.

right...i just didn't know if there was a pattern before with them. As it seemed to be well after midnight est and before 7am est...like sometime between 2am and 7am. but i didn't know if all of them were like that. I was just asking if anybody's noticed a trend or kept track of when they've been posted?

You know, CoDz has beat us on every transmission so far, we need to be on the ball for this one. Bobaganoosh, it's likely that you weren't seeing a change because you weren't doing Ctrl-F5 (See: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/385367/whats-the-difference-between-hit-f5-and-ctrl-f5-in-browser ) This can also be accomplished by Shift clicking the refresh button in at least firefox.

That's why I use Firefox. (Not this specific reason, but because it's simply built better.)

An explanation of why this would matter. When they update the web site, they are updating one file, the flash (swf). This file is already on your hard drive (cached) and when you click refresh, or hit F5, your computer pulls the file from your hard drive rather than the web site. To force your computer to redownload the file, you have to do Ctrl-F5 (for IE you also have to do this.) Now after a certain number of refreshes, or certain amount of time your computer will eventually download the new file. This is why the site will update at different times for different people.

(The above is my understanding, if someone with a better knowledge of internet protocol can correct me please do.)

Bobaganoosh, the reason I even brought up this idea is because after the first transmission update was posted here and I clicked it, the site didn't update until after I clicked Shift-refresh.

ETA: Apparently shift-refresh works in IE too.
