Never realized what ruddy saints they are! Patient is not exactly the word. I understand why it’s been done this way but it does sting a little right after having had to wait a couple of months for the RBOM after everyone else got that one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippyHippy Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) Like it how Australia at least gets a mention. Does anybody know that we, in New Zealand even exist? Edited November 1, 2021 by TrippyHippy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are fulfilled with a yellow Mini. 😉 Edited November 1, 2021 by AndrewTBP Pork Pie reference 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shiningbrow Posted November 6, 2021 Share Posted November 6, 2021 On 10/31/2021 at 8:04 PM, MOB said: Furthermore, Australians are used to the tyranny of distance and so are better habituated to releases of all sorts of things - books, tv shows, movies, etc - often coming later. While true, that certainly doesn't mean we're happy about it! Nor even content... So, finding out that we could have finally had something ahead if the rest of the world for once feels more like a kick in the guts. While I do fully understand the idea of a worldwide release date for this, I do hope that it's the last time it happens with a Chaosium product. Otherwise, it strongly comes across as "you guys (Aussies and kiwis) are a small group, and so you aren't very important to us, so we're willing to treat you like crap to ensure our other, more important customer base, doesn't get a bit miffed".

RandomNumber Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) As the evening of 10 November slips away before them, the Aussies and Kiwis patiently carry on hitting refresh on their browsers every few minutes... ☺️ Edit: Woo hoo. Ordered!😁 Edited November 10, 2021 by RandomNumber 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
