When HT said online Monday "A few days", that means to me, more than 5 days, less than 2 weeks. My arm is not tingling, so I can tell ya straight up that it won't be this week.

NONONONONONONONO!!! NO!...Rip, repeat with me:

"1.02 is going to be released today...MUST be released today...HAS TO BE released today..."

say it 1000 times and when you believe that TODAY will be the day, then you'll also be in the same nerve attack as I AM! checking the page each...emm...2 minutes

Heh, yah. Doin' the same thing here from work. But I don't have as big an addiction as y'all it seems. I've only been checking it every *five* minutes

As soon as it's posted, I'm gonna come down with a serious case of....something... grab my coat and "I'll see the rest of you chumps back at work on Monday" <g>

Now, Rip...

A "few" may be described as "a small number". I'm rather encouraged by the fact that it was uttered on Monday. Couple this with the date of the last release and I will go out on a limb and say today.

Thursdays work better for release than Fridays because it gives you another working day to make any emergency fixes that might be necessary.

3:30 PM today!

If I remember correctly, Thursday was always the release day back in the old ICI days. But maybe it's just wishfull thinking.

Pyro, HT, it is the TAX time here in USA! Most people will not be able to play the new 1.02 version anyway until April 15th. So no reason to rush with it. Rather, take your time and make sure it is clean and bug free.
If you still have time before 15th, go once more over your own taxes.

If my game play were tax dependant.. I wouldn't be playing AH for about 6 years based solely on this year's results.
