A little prediction

titanium_geek · 09-14-2005, 05:47 PM

Allright- prettymuch anytime someone posts a forum problem, jeremy usually pipes up with a "thanks for the heads up, it should be all fixed in the next forum version"

Ok, so, this new major forum update is really exciting. When will it come out? I'm tipping the month of December, just in time for Christmas. (why? cause in other threads there have been mentions of "couple of months")

So, lets see- ah the 18th of December is my guess.

Anyone else?

Note this isn't a competition with prizes or anything- just a little fun. (unless someone wants to sponsor it!)

I have no idea when it will be, but I'm interested nonetheless.
I'm sure Jeremy can't anwer when EXACTLY it'll be, but could he please give us a little more info then "a few months"?

Just out of curiosity...

I'm willing to offer a brand-new, hot-off-the-production-floor, magical, mysterious, imperceptable, imperious, Invis-O-Matic Imaginary tinfoil hat as a prize!

Well, it's dependent on quite a few things, so I can't really be more specific. I'll do everything I can to make sure it happens this year though. In the end "when it's ready" is the only real answer though.

titanium_geek · 09-15-2005, 04:05 PM

hehehe. well, it's actually not as bad a debian...

C'mon guys- dates! like the 17th of feb or whatever. Like the "when will LQ hit a million users (??) thread" (was it a million? I dunno. I can't remember- and I'm too lazy to check."

I will be offering a gmail invite to the winner (who ever is the closest to the actual release) - plus you get Charred awesome prize. Anyone else with awesome prizes to offer?
