But I don't like beer...

Can I just have a free Stratios?

Had the launcher bug but followed directions and it's downloading the update now...

The way this should be handled.

With each ticket sold to Fanfest is sent a drink voucher numbered and hand signed by CCP Falcon. This will serve as a reminder to everyone to never over promise and under deliver.

I have to hand it to them. I fully expected to not be playing this game until Wednesday morning.

You have my genuine applause. And I mean that, I know that I troll pretty hard, but not this time.

Kudos.

[edit: Also, while I have never attended FanFest in all my long years of playing this game, I just may go to the next one. I've got some leave saved up anyway.

Yeah, about that. So, got any recommendations for a good brew? Preferably something with a nice, hefty pricetag.
My personal favourites are Kaldi from Bruggsmiðjan and the Nr-line from Borg brugghús.

So, this just in, I suspect some guy by the name of CCP Sledgehammer may have sabotaged the update, in order to make Falcon pay for beer.

It might not be true, but that guy has a negative sec status, so he must be a ~bad guy~

Big smile

Is that one hour for the first patch attempt only? Or does it cover all the following downtime / emergency reboots? Twisted

At the company I work at, we have customers around the world that don't upgrade unless our support staff are on-site Shocked


I also bet your customers pay a little more than $14.99/mo for access to what ever you sell.

Despite my posting prowess I really am terrible at this game
