If so they make the same mistake with Vic.
Different mistakes altogether. In the case of Victoria the game came out a day or two before schedule in some danish stores. Not really serious With CK, it was weeks ahead. But, in both cases, it was Mork who came to the forum bragging. (and providing the eager forumites with screenshots.) :)

...and chances are they'll do the same on I guess...unless Johan and Co. have sent the Templars to teach them a lesson after CK. :)

Someone high in the Paradox ladder called the Danish distributor and told them that CK was selling in stores, and that it shouldn't be so. CK was out in stores two+ weeks before release, but only for a couple of days.
I was probably responsible for that call...

Yep, Vicky was out a thursday the something/something, and was schelduled for release the following monday.
I was the only one who had the darn thing that thursday as Betafon (my game-pusher) recieved it that evening (got a call 10min before they closed, but then I could* ride my bike pretty quickly through town ;)).
Most other stores in Scandinavia got it friday or saturday.

CK was mistakenly released in Denmark prior to the oficial release.


*: Could because I have been in an accident which have left my left arm useless for a couple of months.

...yep, you probably where...I still remember the thread where you posted stuff and people griped about the situation, BTW...

...whether that will have an impact on the release of this game in old Denmark remains to be seen of course. :)

As I am a betaziod this time, you are probably correct...

Then I might actually bet some money on it. :)

...but I wouldn't be surprised if some other non-beta Dane popped up with a copy before the rest of us Northern folk...
