Lemur is a goody daddy to the little lemurs.

One day, in a few years Lemur. I can see it now, Big Lemur vs Little Lemur. 1v1 Empire: Total War.

I am sure he is…but everyone need a roll of duck tape, just the same.

117 people in town now…and rising…

Wasnt that many this time yesterday, when I gave up 5 hours of sleep to bring you all minute by minute Live Q&A

Im tired, bed for pever.

YALLAH MY SULTAN WISHES YOU DEAD....wait wat?

I just found out my preorder won't even be shipped until tomorrow.

Hah, the mailman drove up the driveway to deliver the mail to the front door. He only does that when there are packages too large to fit in the mailbox. Two packages have the Amazon label on them, my heart skips a beat...can it be....delivered early....

Both are for the wife; a cook book and some craft supplies.

That was cold.

**Lemur** · 03-04-2009, 20:34

Oh, oh, I really do feel your pain. Ow ow ow!

Then again, I also laughed out loud when I read your tragedy ...

I will be on more now that the game is out, becuase I can't make it through a long workday without getting some type of 'empire fix'. Plus reading the forum gets me amped usually to play when I get home.

I have the game now and I'm still posting

. I won't leave you guys

**A Very Super Market** · 03-05-2009, 01:15

I'm still downloading. At this rate, it'll be a day before I can start playing...

**Lemur** · 03-05-2009, 01:20

I have the game downloaded, patched and working. Now all I need is for these children to collapse and move on to slumberland ...

-edit-

They are asleep. The wife is watching her reality junk TV. I have to be up at 5 a.m. tomorrow, but for now ... EMPIRE!

-edit part deux-

Spoke too soon. Empire crashed, and after I rebooted (just a precaution) it decided it needed an update. With luck I'll be playing tonight ...

Ouch, Hosa. That had to hurt.

I'm still waiting to see if I'm getting a copy in the mail, or if I should just head to the local game store and pick it up. As I don't have off til Sunday anyway, though, I'm not sweating it too much. I can wait til then....probably.

Well, it is not a ghost town…most unfortunately.

The number of new threads since midnight my time and 7 AM was staggering…unviewed threads on the second page…

It looks like there was a frat party last night and no one cleaned up the mess!

Of course if my game comes today…its going to get worse….

You picked a bad time to join the Mod team

. I'm glad I had time to practice ~~supressing~~, ~~subduing~~, ~~beating~~, ~~brutally repressing~~.... moderating the forums here before the big post-release rush.

I still haven't received it - not only haven't they shipped my preorder yet, but it is listed as Out of Stock. Angry phone calls commencing immediately.
