[QUOTE=Omolong;29268644]My theory is that Portal 2 will get released in 10 hours. Following the previous 2 days progress, there has been roughly 30% every 24 hours. Take that to 90%, which then makes 72 hours. Then to get the last 10%, you would divide 24 by 3, to get 8. Add that onto the 72, and you get 80 hours. We are currently at roughly 70 hours in, with 80%. This will be proven by how far we can get in the next 2 hours. If we can get to 90%, then my theory still stands. If not, then I might see if I can recalculate the hours to see what sorts of time we might get it at.[/QUOTE]
Way too optimistic there.
A few of us managed to break into the golden tater room on KF
Edit: I know it's bleedin' late, just showing off that we contributed a tad.

There have been lots of different times thrown around. On the first day, I was seeing times of 48 hours, 60 hours, and the sorts of times we are around now. None of these times are for definite, as they are all approximations.

This is an estimate calculated by using all the past results afaik, it should be the most accurate one.
Yeah it would have been fun to follow the progress if we only needed to get like 7 bars to 100%. Now its just like "Oh we made a game and its ready for release, give us 1000000000€ and you get it earlier..oh you don't have that much money? You have to wait 5 days then.."

My one is an estimate using past results as well.

Roughly, yes.
What is the name of the 3rd and 4th songs in the Audiosurf radio right now? The bottom two.
Oh fuck off Valve, now it's going to be released the exact moment I go to work.
Thanks.
I think they should now do it reversed that when the release time comes people have to play these games again to make the bars go back to 0% for the game to be released.
Wakes up early in the morning to find out we did this whole thing to shave off 4 hours. Feelsbad.jpg

...so we kill GLaDOS early and never get Portal 2? Prevent an early "resurrection" and break the arg? Didn't you remember hearing that GLaDOS needed the bars to be as high as possible to reboot her early? How can any sense be made of your comment?

I'm sorry but that is the most retarded idea I've heard all week.

Are there any Portal 2 reviews out? I just heard Gamestar.de - one of the biggest/most important german reviewers - is going to post a review tomorrow at 10:00 GMT+1 / 01:00 PST.
The way they set everything up may imply some kind of review embargo which would make the whole "play to get an early release" hook even more fishy.
I could be reading too much into this though. ;)
Gamestar was the best magazine until recently, germany has no single good magazine anymore.
I don't really care anymore. Since it'll be out tommorow, I'm happy.

Notice the huge incerease in CPU, but no change at all in progress. And how the single steps got smaller and smaller until now.
"Huge increase in CPU" boy what are you smoking CPU dropped after Bit. Trip Beat finished
[QUOTE=Ven Kaeo;29269869]"Huge increase in CPU" boy what are you smoking CPU dropped after Bit. Trip Beat finished[/QUOTE]
You can see that even though the CPUs dropped like a rock, the percentage complete kept rising at a fairly similar rate as before.

It wasn't rigged, sillies, and there have been multiple points of data to prove that.

There wasn't that much of an increase in the audiosurf line though.
