    Mine's in the warehouse too and I placed it March 15. :(

    Yay, mine has changed to "being processed and will ship soon," now I am getting really excited. :)

    Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm! Order SHIPPED!
  • edited June 2010
    And...my DVD and cards are HERE!!!
    :D

    Thanks a lot guys! Looks like I might time to play it before MI2 next week after all!
    :)

    By the way, it shipped June 22nd, so that took about a week and a day to reach the UK for anyone wondering.
    :)

    Ok, now I'm worried. We live in the Same country and my order is still at the warehouse. Hmm...

    Don't worry, mine's still in the at the warehouse too. You have nothing to worry about. Or perhaps we both have something worry about. Either way, you're not alone.

    He has EVERYTHING to worry about: first one to get it gets the honour of reviewing it!

    He can always review it after you. And if he chooses to do so, his review will probably be of higher quality because he won't need to rush it.

    No, the rules of our contest forbid that!

    And what's this about rushing it? If I get it first, the contest is over, I can take my sweet time!

    I wasn't aware that you getting the DVD before him disallowed him from reviewing it. That's an awful rule, nothing should forbid OzzieMonkey from giving his review. But, if the rule stands, the rule stands - no matter how crappy it is. However, there is a loophole in the rules; OzzieMonkey could, of course, write a review and then post it on a different blog than CulturalZest.

    Not necessarily. I instigate a new rule: We get people to vote for each review. The one with the most votes wins!

    no, it doesn't disallow him; just the fact that its a race, and the race means who wins wins! of course he can write a review, but only the one who gets the dvd first gets to publish the two reviews (or 3, if haggis is getting it...)

    Now now, no need to get crazy here... :D

    I am still utterly confused by the race.

    I was hoping you could explain it :confused:

    How about:

    1. Whoever get it first gets to post their review and gets the revered title of All High Master of the Post
    2. Other one gets to post later, but must add a humble "I am only second best" at the top of the review

    Or you could go with:

    'Tales of Monkey Island' DVD Review: Gold Edition
    'Tales of Monkey Island' DVD Review: Silver Edition
    'Tales of Monkey Island' DVD Review: Bronze Edition

    and if there were a fourth writer, you could have:

    'Tales of Monkey Island' DVD Review: Wooden Nickel Edition

    So, you accepted the idea? Nice.

    Yes, I'm aware of who you were referring to. I only put three placings there (gold, silver and bronze) because I was thinking of Haggis.
    Until you're REEEAAAL nice and we need more writers. so like, september

    We'll see what happens. Why September in particular? Thinking of expanding the blog in that month?

    The race started earlier today when mine shipped!

    No, but we have all the writers we need at the moment and by september, you know, getting close to jurrassic park and stuff and we are expanding the SITE (not blog :p) in increments.

    But i dont know if its kind of like spamming these forums by discussing it, so yeah, i might stop here.
  • edited June 2010
    yours shipped, what extras did you order?

    Well, that would explain it them, I guess. As I ordered the voodoo cards and, by the sound of it, Prizna also ordered extras and I think we are both still waiting on our respective packages.

    What's the difference between "has been submitted to our warehouse" and "is being processed"? Which comes first?

    Now I can tell for sure:

    1. Being processed
    2. Submitted to the warehouse.

    Could you post a photo/scan of the special voodoo card that comes with the deluxe package?
