Public Alpha Coming - August 29 2008!
OK this is a teaser, but the fact is that we will soon be in a position to start accepting public registrations for Paradox. Tell your friends:)
As soon as we've decided on a date, we'll let you know.
EDIT: We've decided on a date, so we're letting you know.
Paradox! The Musical will officially be opening for public alpha testing registrations on August 29, 2008, at approximately midnight GMT! By which I mean the midnight immediately after 11:59PM on the 29th, which is actually the 30th but I'm still calling it the 29th because most of our users are US-based, where it still WILL be the 29th. Confused? Me too!
Here is a list of times in various timezones, which will hopefully make it clearer:
00:00 (midnight) GMT on Saturday the 30th
10:00 AEST (Australia/Melbourne) on Saturday the 30th
20:00 (8:00pm) EDT on Friday the 29th
19:00 (7:00pm) CDT on Friday the 29th
18:00 (6:00pm) MDT on Friday the 29th
17:00 (5:00pm) PDT on Friday the 29th
Chances are good that there will be some in-game goodies and giveaways, and oooh all kinds of stuff. Hope to see you there!

Well, pending any further server outage stupidity, which I'm REALLY hoping to avoid, public alpha launch will DEFINITELY be going ahead on Friday 29th August 2008 at midnight GMT. I plan to be online and in chat from then until... much, much later.
There'll be some fun giveaways, and hopefully a bunch of new people to welcome in to our little community, so please drop by and join in the festivities.

Just thought I'd post here to clarify what Gobb said for us "Amuricans" who don't have a clue what GMT is.Gobberwart wrote:Paradox!

By which I mean the midnight immediately after 11:59PM on the 28th, in case you were wondering.

Re: Public Alpha Coming - August 29 2008!
Just thought I'd post to clarify my own stupidity. I have been so busy trying to fix these server problems (I'm going to stick with that excuse) that I have only JUST realised the error in my post.
Launch is in fact not until the midnight that follows 11:59PM GMT on the 29th, not the 28th. As in tomorrow, not today.
I'll update the OP in a minute, but let me clarify:
The official public alpha launch of Paradox! The Musical will be taking place at 0:00 on August 30th GMT (that's right after 23:59 on August 29th). This is 10AM August 30 in Australia, and it's late evening on the 29th in the US.
I'm really really sorry if anyone's made special arrangements to be in the game today, but I can't roll with that time because a) there are still server issues being rectified and b) Elljae will be at work and I won't roll without her.
Cheers,
Gobb
