Gamersgate Download Megathread (Downloadable from 09h00 Stockholm time Fri 13 Aug)

Actually, he got it right. The UK is currently on British Summer Time, GMT+1. It's my understanding that Sweden has a similar summer time (CEST?), thus is currently GMT+2. </pedant>

So 8am right?

 

[Swordsman1219]

My issue is this, it is 4:34 EST currently as I type, I still have 10 hours or so to go and yet its pouring rain and I have no other games to play so I'm bored and verging on severely impatient due to the fact that I have t o find 10 hours of time to fill with nothing to do

 

[Aloriel]

So 8am right?

In the UK, yes. 8am for you guys.... 3am for me.

Can you get a visa debit card through your bank? That's what I do (via paypal) because I don't really want an actual credit card. Works just fine for impulse purchases over gamersgate.

Probably, but in time?
I made a PayPal account today in desperation, but saw that it would take 2-3 days to transfer money, I scratched that idea..

But now, thanks to mom, I get to wake up early in the morning, set the game to download, then go jogging for half an hour or so.. Belive me, I'm gonna need it

Walrus's list o'stuff to fill time with:

1) TVTropes
2) Other Paradox Games
3) Shouting matches with neighbours
4) Intentionally getting lost on the way to the bathroom
5) Furious masturbation
6) Invading Poland (may or may not be combined with number 2)
7) Sleeping
8) KFC Megabuckets

Combine as neccessary, wait 10 hours, then voila! Vicky 2

If you wish to purchase my book "How to be a massive Success at life", send $10 to my paypal account.

 

[Aloriel]

Simple - go to bed, set an alarm for 3am, get up, start the download knowing that it'll take hours because everyone is hammering the GG servers, then go back to bed

Haha! I love the suggestion. Not possible though. My spouse would kill me.

You can substitute #6 for #5 depending on whether you took that as a sly euphemism, like I did.

Was worried for a moment until rembering we wernt on OT and that you wouldnt get in trouble for 5

I think if #6 was a euphanism, when combined with #2, everyones respective partners would murder them

Edit: @stefanbertramle - it would be wonderful to mark the release of Victoria 2 with my first ever infraction point/warning ^_^

 

[A_Dane]

Yeah, you won't be able to sleep at the night. I, on the other hand, will sleep well as always, and when I wake up, I just start downloading.

Here ye, i'll wake up, turn on the comp, go make my self some breakfeast, press dl & then take my dog for a long walk

Yeah, I'm starting to lean towards that as well. Wake up, start the download, do my morning workout, eat breakfast, watch an episode of ST:TNG on DVD... come upstairs and play.

 

[A_Dane]

gotta love when you can do such things eh?

 

[eleinvisible]

Poland will be mine. And I'll prevent all their #5ing (by force) until they swear allegiance to the Deutsches Reich.

I hope I can get at least 150KB/s at that rate it'll take less than an hour... expect to be playing by 3AM.

 

[Mr. Capiatlist]

Haha! I love the suggestion. Not possible though. My spouse would kill me.

Haha! Finally, working the closing shift at a bar comes in handy! I shall be awake at 3.

 

[Lathund]

Game released at 9 AM, which is exactly the time I'll need to be at the gate at the airport to fly to New York. Would have loved for the game to have been released a few weeks ago instead. Then I could spend every waking hour alternating between playing Starcraft 2 and Vicky 2.

My wrist hurts just thinking about that. Too bad about the airport bit though. :/

 

[Zorro]

Wasn't going to preorder this then I realized that was dumb since I was planning on purchasing it tomarrow Might as well get a soundtrack.

So what time can you download for Eastern Standard Time? 3am or 9am? Like to download this while I'm at work and come home to it downloaded
