Hypothetically

How far would you see the fires of destruction if the urby was a joke after all............

The universe would cease to exist.

[Dawnstealer]

I would be a little ticked. I don't think it's a joke, though. ...this time.

[3xnihilo]

I see all the names at the bottom of the page and it appears we are all gathering in expectation of Urbies glorious appearance

[StuffYouFear]

Im in texas, Im sure I would still be able too see the fires from the riots in canada from here....

[Ovion]

I think the uproar would be devestating to PGIs credibility.

This thread alone has had over 226 posts a month (7-8 posts a day), a new page every 2-3 days, and that's just the main thread for it.
There's been many threads otherwise, hundreds of quite vocal members on the forums want it, and so there'll be many more quiet that want it.

And they've teased us with it, hinted and joked for almost a year before they went 'wait, you're serious?'.

Going back on that would mitigate a significant amount of the goodwill they've garnered since the split from IGP.

"In other news: a group of malcontent, middle-aged, kind of nerdy looking, men set fire to computer gaming company PGI today. Bystanders report they were all carrying trash cans and shouting about something called an Urbie."

[Viken]

We just got the Resistance Package update... still waiting until 10AM PST (~25min) to see when the Urbie comes.

[Ovion]

Still roughly 25-30 minutes yet ThatGuy.
If it updates at 10am canada time like it should.

And doesn't crash from everyone flocking to get it.

[ThatGuy539]

10AM Canada time? There are 6 time zones in Canada.

PGI is in the Pacific time zone. They are the furthest west so when they are 10 AM the rest of us in Canada are all past 10 AM.

PGI is in Pacific Time Zone (-8) it's about 9:40 AM there now
I'm in Mountain Time Zone (-7) it's about 10:40 AM here now

Please try not to break the urbie pre-order link, I won be home for another 9 hours, unless I can download the client on my iPhone.

You don't think they will run out of urbies by then, do you?!?

Nope. There will be plenty of Urbies to go around. Worry not good sir.

[ThatGuy539]

But how can you be sure!!! How can you know? It'll be like Black Friday at WallMart. Get the hell out of my way, I must get one before they sell out. CHARGE!!!!

My clock set to PGI (Vancouver?) Is labeled Canada time.

Front page has updated with the Resistance update for me now.
Urbs soon.

- In some ways, this is marketting done right.

[Barkem Squirrel]

They sold over 12,000 Sarah Jenner when they were only planing on 1,000 maybe.

Order is through website, like the other packages, not MC through the client!

[Myray]

i hope it will be something like "you asked for it we delivered" Headline

[Barkem Squirrel]

I almost forgot, due to selling so many Sarah's Jenners, it was released early.
