Help release Portal 2 Early. - Games

[QUOTE=nikomo;29271234]That gamingmasters site is so wrong.[/QUOTE] All sites not created by valve are wrong...

Wait, is the gamingmasters site accurate?

man im kinda annoyed that most of the people that bought the potato pack on my friends list have 0.1 hours played on each game :/ They just wanted the hat and pin

Simple calcul : -81,38% in 3 DAYS. -We gained 5,5 hours by completing some games. -So we have 81/3 = 27% per day, and there is only 12 hours left until the final countdown. -That leaves us that we can ONLY get to 81 + 27/2 = 94,5% when the timer goes down. Not counting that audiosurf and the ball will probably be finished and we'll have gained one hour or so. So, face it : WE'LL NOT MAKE IT. NOT. MAKE. IT.

It's... It's worse... I've taken 5,5 hours from the timer, but in fact they were ALREADY taken off from the original countdown (22 hours). So, My bad there are (still) in fact 16 hours left, hell, even with that we will get to 81 + 27/2 + 27/6 = 99%!!!! THIS F... TIMER WILL STOP AT 99%!!!! LUUUUUUUULZ!!!! This was it. This was the joke. Go to 100% AT THE SAME TIME the timer goes 0,00,00. Synchronicity : it was the main goal of the ARG. The resonance cascade.

Thanks to TF2, we now how 9,999,999 users who bought the potato sack for a virtual head warmer. Not for playing the games.

It's all apart of the plan.

At least 1hr30mins from The Ball and Audiosurf.

[QUOTE=johnT447;29271062]I was hoping it was going to be released today :([/QUOTE] It is going to be released today. At midnight. At Gamestop :v:

[quote=gamingmasters]Please note that the predicited time for the progress bar to complete is now LATER than the scheduled release due to the dropping % per hour.[/quote]

So what time is it due for UK time? I'm now confused.

:eng99:

[QUOTE=Ven Kaeo;29271510]It is going to be released today. At midnight. At Gamestop :v:[/QUOTE] thats tomorrow silly

I wish it would release at midnight, the Xbox and PS3 faggots have had it since Thursday and now more of them will get it early. Valve should not have delivered the discs so early :colbert:

[QUOTE=Oblivion471;29271482]Don't forget the nonexisting overclock![/QUOTE] Yeah seriously what was with that? Were they seriously expecting us to collect 500k potatoes in a few days? I'm still kinda hoping they'll activate the overclock manually and let us have it today or something.

Someone must contact Dougley or GabeN and tell them the prank has just gone WRONG...

[QUOTE=ElectronicG19;29271520]So what time is it due for UK time? I'm now confused.[/QUOTE] Somewhere between 9 and 10 am currently.

was expecting overclock at 1pm :saddowns:

[QUOTE=Oblivion471;29271693]They have to, it's to make sure everything gets there in time.[/QUOTE] 5 days early 3 if you remove Saturday and Sunday as they arent business days. They had plenty of time to get them delivered by Monday morning rather than 4 days previous where they could be leaked.

Wow, I don't think Valve counted on this happening. This was a massive failure.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;29271763]5 days early 3 if you remove Saturday and Sunday as they arent business days. They had plenty of time to get them delivered by Monday morning rather than 4 days previous where they could be leaked.[/QUOTE] It's a reality of retail, they need a lot of time to get the product from warehouse to stores and then to make absolutely sure the stores each got enough copies... so games always sit in the stockroom for a few days prior to any big release.

[QUOTE=superdinoman;29271763]5 days early 3 if you remove Saturday and Sunday as they arent business days.

Imagine how many copies are getting sent out all over the world, they cant risk having trouble with some shipments.

maybe as a last ditch effor we can spam our friends list to join the nelipot group v:v:v

Please don't release while I'm at work. Please don't release while I'm at work. Please don't release while I'm at work. Please don't release while I'm at work. Please don't release while I'm at work. I'm posting at work :(
