June Version Update Notice (04/25/2008)

[Xanthe]

Come on, the proper format is clearly 1209130740000!

[Seraph]

Can we make posting any dates in European fashion anywhere on the boards a bannable offense yet?

The EU way is more sensible anyway. Date > Month > Year : smallest to largest. Why mix them up in the silly US way? Makes no logical sense. You drive on the wrong side of the road too. And you can't make a decent cup of tea to save your lives. Oh yeah... here in the UK we hate France more than you do, no matter what you might think.

PS. I love you Izzy

I don't say "Why hello there chap, it's the 5th day in march!"
I do say "Hey, it's March 5th."

People type it like they say it here...

[Max™]

Think we should use exponential values of planck times roughly elapsed in the history of the Universe.

"The next version update will be out at 8.67584x10^64!"

The continentals drive on our side of the road. It's just basically you guys, the Japanese, Australians and Indians. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi..._right.svg.png
Red = right side
Blue = wrong side
And you have a freaking tunnel directly to France, you can't hate them and have a tunnel!

Because it's not like there's 31 days in some months and only 12 months. Yes. 31 is indeed less than 12. The current date? 24/4/2008. You can clearly see that 24 is infact smaller than 4.

I swear to fucking god if this wasn't a whoosh I'll kill myself

You're making americans look bad with that logic... Days are smaller units than Months because they're shorter, it has nothing to do with the amount that are in a month. For example, an inch is smaller than a foot, despite the fact that it takes 12 inches to make a foot, and only 3 feet to make a yard.

Also, saying "5th of March" is just as common as saying "March 5th" in the professional world.

[Tempyst]

You guys misread it, they aren't adjusting NPC Fellows, they're adding Brian Fellows.

Getting a bit defensive? A touch tetchy? http://www.newcelica.org/forums/imag...es/furious.gif

Also, saying "5th of March" is just as common as saying "March 5th" in the world full of douchebags that talk like cockmongers. ie. Hugh Grant.

Fixed. No one REALLY talks like that.

I'm excited that they are specifically saying the update will be focused on WotG missions and content. I'm getting sick of playing the demo.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601

Learn it live it, basically just US that refuse to use this standard for obscure reasons that are beyond me.

Edit: ISO 8601 is used so dates are able to be understood by anyone in written form, since a lot of countries has diffrent traditions when it comes to presenting date/time.

>_> I just provided perfect logic as to why #686578's logic was off, how is that considered being defensive? My last sentence was though, sure.

Also, lol Izzy. Hugh Grant's a fag.

[The Blackrose]

If they made a Cobra Robe with Refresh effect, it'd have the added effect of making me give a crap about Campaign. I don't think I'm the only one.

It would finally give me a use for the mass of Allied Notes I'm sitting on right now.

[Feielle]

Why do we need numbers at all? Can't we just go back to roman numerals?

Also, to the person that said the "refresh" effect would only be active in campaign: I pre-emptively blame and hate you for SE doing exactly that.

...even if I already have 3 other refresh bodypieces.... Its the principal of the thing.

I considered using that as well, but found the millisecond conversion to be a little more amusing. I usually go with the ISO standard when it comes to programming.

Rerail: I am actually looking forward to the missions if the CoP team is really the group that is handling this expansion. Too many of the mission have been dumbed down, and I hope that any new areas have to be accessed after a large number of missions. There was great storytelling and challenge in the CoP missions.

Agreed. For all the trouble people made CoP out to be, it was a great expansion both in challenge and storytelling.

It should be the CoP team, but I still doubt the missions will be very challenging. Because the easier missions seem to appeal to more players (even if it's the idiots), it would probably make sense for them to make them easier (from a money-making aspect).

I hope they're hard though.

lol not argueing with this standpoint since there is no point in doing so.

But as an example the dates of 08/07/08 and 08/08/07 can get very confusing as an example if not using ISO standards

Hoping For:

-Final Nyzul Relics
-BLU AF2 #@(#!
-DNC/SCH Merits
-The oncoming wave of nerfs that won't affect SMN at all, but plug things into the melee that make em sweat
- Hoping that "chocobo raising update" includes a "Hey, why not let people ride those blue chocobos the guards brag about in bastok[S] so I can get around quicker on foot!" subnote.



Not that I care... *mumbles struggling to level BLM past 39*

Agreed! CoP was my favourite expansion. Challenging missions which helped make getting Sea still one of my most memorable achievements. Here's hoping for something similar with WotG..... but I'm not holding my breath.
