 		March 1st! Anyone know what *time* March 1st?
Hey, so I'm all ready and eager for the March 1st start of the new wave! I know I won't be able to keep up with those that purchased multiple boxes (!!), but I am determined to get a first solve on at least *one* card! It's all I want, my life's dream... *sniffs dramatically*

However, can anyone tell me exactly what time we can start imputing our solves?

I'm assuming midnight Greenwich Mean Time -- anyone out there know for sure?

Thanks!

 		well, the daily puzzles are automatically updating to the new one at about midnight now. However the guys (and girls) at MC have been working mega hard recently to get everything done on time (trust me on this one) so it may well be a case of having to wait and check throughout thursday.

in summary: who knows?

 		Ok, so it's midnight, and the site still isn't live! Looks like the 6:00 pm idea might be correct, but I'll keep checking, just in case...

Sad

 		If only firebox had got their act in gear...
I'm reading enviously about all you peeps who have cards in hand ready to enter solves. I ordered ours thru Firebox as soon as they were announced (yay!) but they weren't sent out until this afternoon (Feb 28th) - assuming royal mail get them to me within 24hrs, that would give me 15 minutes of solve time between work and 6pm.
Sob sob sob. And we so wanted a first solve or two.
Ah well, good luck everyone in Season 2.

 		Don't fret JB1172, I don't have that many solved either (that darn work keeps getting in the way of my puzzling.) I think it's mostly luck, trying to pick a card for first entry that others won't. Go for an ugly card! No one will want to enter the ugly card first!

Ok, it's 20 past midnight now, I'm guessing it's a no go. Sad

It's only 4 pm here, so I'll keep checking periodically. I'll post if by any chance the site goes live before 6 pm.

Good luck everyone! Hope everyone gets at least one first solve who wants one! (Me included!!)

I feel your pain, I ordered from MyPerplex and I have no idea when to expect my cards. Seeing as these are my first cards, however, I'll be happy whenever they get here...

*checks order*

Hurrah!! They have shipped! Wondrous news!

Well take back that criticism: all is forgiven Firebox. Arrived this morning at work (forgotten I'd used that address!) so I know what I'm doing over lunch. Now if I didn't have to get a website up today, I'd be even happier!

And I'm too much of a design snob to go for ugly cards first, shame. Wink

 		I'm still waiting for mine... they've been "loaded on a van", according to the tracking info, but where that van is and whether they can find my door are still open questions...

HAET WAITING.

 		I'm really hacked off Evil or Very Mad I've had a very nice email saying that there was no answer, so my parcel couldn't be delivered. Normally, my parents are in all day every day, and so would have signed for my parcel, and it would be sat at home waiting for me to get in from work. But no. They decided to go out for a bit. And so I am now a very unhappy bunny. GRRRRRRR! *mutter mutter mutter*

Apologies for the rant!
