Well, now we couldn't sleep on Thursday nights, it seems that we will have to stay awake whole week...

Anyway, everything happens for a reason... who knows, may be that the install pack needs some final polishing... hopefully

Easy, Spitful. This won't hurt much.

There, now that you are relaxed, I have one thing to say to you.

...

Patience is a virtue.

Mercy ! I need my weekly dose of EB !

The problem with providing something so often and well for you guys is that you come to expect it. Putting together these updates is not a small thing to do, much goes into them. We all have real lives, with real jobs or schoolwork, wives or girlfriends, and other responsibilities. Not to mention work on the mod itself, which is at a critical point at the moment.

I know you haven't got your weekly fix, and I will get it to you as soon as I can. In the meantime, however, I'm spending some time with my wife.

Khelvan you make it your self to difficult.
You where not clear about why you could give us the weekly update.
Because of that allot EB fans are confused..
It better to place a sticky in the EB forums that there wont be a update this weekend or week because you have other more important things to do.
I am sure that most EB fans will accept that including me ;-).

Your wife? WIFE?

I've heard some lame excuses in my life, but this one tops it all. Get back to work, you lazy bones!

I don't understand. I wasn't under the impression I answered to anyone. I always thought that these previews were a gift of sorts to you guys, and that the regular schedule I kept was done when I could do so. Just because I could do so for a good period of time doesn't make it a set in stone schedule.

Like other things we do, these previews are not paid for, and are done as we have the capability and time to do so. I apologize if I have made things difficult for anyone because I haven't dropped my family life and mod work to make the preview for anyone, or to spend the time trying to come up with an explanation for me missing a deadline set for me by the fans.

How terribly inconsiderate of me.

Edit: Not a response to Jebus ;)

Please, relax. You'll get your fix soon. We do have lives outside of EB, and while we do set deadlines, they are not goals we demand of ourselves to meet without failure. Sometimes things get a bit busy. However, I can promise you, internally, the mod has not slowed down. In fact, it's actually been moving fairly well, we're still making plenty of units, working out new systems, and bug hunting, and everything has been pretty positive. However, putting together those updates takes time, and Khelvan is pretty dilligently working on this stuff. However, he needs cooperation from a lot of folks who are also busy; it'd not be so bad if we were all busy at once, but more often, people are busy when he has the free time to put the update together. It will be up soon though, and the additional stress doesn't help. We get tense about getting the updates ready to, we all know how much you want to see them, and you will.
