Heh, i agree. I just get carried away when i'm enthusiastic i guess.
Maybe i should take up writing after-action reports when the sim is released, that way i could vent without cluttering up the entire forum. In fact, i'd be more than happy to contribute a piece about as long as my previous post to be used in the promotion of the simulator/as an introduction in the manual/on the back of the DVD box or whatever else promotional, but to do that i would actually need to get my hands on something like an early demo...yes, i know, "don't push your luck"
However i'm sure there are others who can do just as well or better than me and that gives me an idea (since i'm all ideas that end up being done by others

). Maybe we could have a fan-fiction writing contest here in the forum when the time of release draws near. We could vote the best entry and the piece would be used in some form of official promotion for the simulator with the author getting credited on the DVD Box or in the manual, or maybe he would get an autographed copy of the simulator. It would definitely be a more creative use of our typing than splitting hairs over non-final screenshots or going at each other's throats all day long
Back on the topic at hand, did i already say this was probably the best update in terms of pieces-finally-coming-together? I don't know if they will make the October intended release date, but i'm 90% confident we'll finally see SoW on the shelves within the next 3-4 months, maybe even earlier
