He said that he might be done with it on Friday, but even if he meets that estimate (which wasn't a guarantee by any means) that doesn't necessarily mean that it will be released on that day.

Well seeing as the thread was about when we would be able to DL the .pdf. True he said 'suspect'. But all I was saying is if he didn't give himself extra time in there it was a silly thing to say.

That's the downside of being just on the outside of the inside by participating in this message board. You get unofficially dribbled bits of information that is earlier but is not as accurate as the official press releases on fanpro's website.

You mean like when it said in SR4 FAQ, Part Six on FanPro's site that the .pdf would be available the Wednesday before GenCon? Not that I am complaining, i've already got an LE copy of the book. :D |

Let the man work, I'm sure he's on it. (Besides, if it is the choice between the PDF and the status report which would you like more?) |

Come on. If he sees this he´s already wasting time. And I bet he might be at some point, perhaps as he´s taking a break with coffee and a sandwich. He should allow himself that much.
Anyway. I might be getting more impatient because it´s 7 pm here. It´s american friday until 8 oclock next morning here, so I guess until then I might stil see it before the weekend. |

Anyone else got the image of an unshaven, unwashed Adam, sitting in front of his computer, rocking back and forth amidst the litter of 20 cases of Red Bull, watching the hourglass cursor spin for the 4,347th time, muttering to himself "almost there.....almost there..."?

..and so do I. If he would stop over here for a spell I don´t think he would mind finding a friendly phrased question directed at him though. |

Spookymonster: I never had any other image of Adam.
For the record, I'm not angry at Adam, particularly. I'm angry at FanPro, generally, for announcing release dates that they know are impossible. I know Adam is working hard - the point is, things should be organized better so that he doesn't have to. Things should be organized better so that not everything is a hair-on-fire emergency. Things should be organized so that books make their release dates. Set the dates further in the future if you have to, I don't mind. I mean, look at SR4. "It comes out at Gencon!" "Well, it will be available at Gencon. For the rest of the world, it streets a month later. Wasn't that clear?" "What do you mean, most SR players can't make it to Gencon? Are the Germans whining about the distance again? I bet the Australians are bitching, too, then." "The PDF comes out before Gencon!" "...Gencon 2006!" Why couldn't they say something like this?: "SR4 comes out in Semptember, but those of you lucky enough to be attending Gencon will have a chance at prerelease copies we'll have on sale there!" |

Yes, that would have been a much better way of informing the masses. |

Your doubt is incorrect. ;-)
Slight slowdown since I've been adding in corrections and I'm waiting on the official word on a few more. |
