I have to wait till midnight, but I promise sometime during my head-down-on-desk-sleepy work day tomorrow, I'll try to give up something useful.

How the carp did you get it today? (Yes. I said carp. It's not a typo, I just like fish.)

Nova's in the first time zone. I will remind her to try and find one Arthur Montaeth-Carr, who I know as The Black Snotling for reasons that may take a while to describe.

It's the same reason everybody parties in Sydney on New Year's Day. Which, if it weren't for region coding, wouldn't have been something that wouild greatly surprise me if if was done *here*.

Yay for me too, I have a copy on my lap as I type. I was third to get a copy at the launch I was at. Local time is now 12.20am 9/11/04

Midnight release and living in Australia is a blessing. I got stiffed at the launch and didn't get any free stuff but that wasn't the reason I was there...

There's lots of cool stuff in the manual, but I won't spoil it for those who haven't got it yet, you'll find out in good time.

Right now off to play. Wish me luck Smile

ah ha, that makes sense. I was thinking the game wasn't released worldwide until later. My bad.
