FYI... this has been a horrible week for work guys, my son has been sick with the Flu... and me and the wifes schedules keep conflicting, not to mention I've had about 0 solid nights of sleep for the past week (he keeps waking up in the middle of the night with fever).
Anyway, I'm still pushing hard on getting this patch wrapped up, but I don't feel good at all about it being ready by tomorrow... I've had to move the stress test back a few more days, I know, yet again.

IMHO Palestar should trade mark "In a Few More days" along with In 2 weeks™. People use them so often theyd make a killing, so much so that subscriptions would no longer be needed.

...... oh bloody hell =(
Attention all DS Players!!! Begin Operation Take Care Faustus!
Each of us will be given a schedule to Watch Big F's kids in the morning! in the Afternoon, and during Midnight. Group of 2 to 4 people will watch each kid of Big F and an extra Group will Watch Big F.
Group 1, Acomapny the little one! make him happy! he's only a baby!
Group 2, uhm.... Do what you do to middle schoolers....
Group 3!!! Your Big job! Tranquilize Big F!!!!!!! ON THE DOUBLE because... 0 Hour of sleep means zero chance of Bug squashing in Beta programming...
Edit: We want him to get 10 hours of sleep means 100% chance of success!
Hope things will get well soon, Faustus =( I have hope in you!!!

Awwww... I had a suspicion that might happen when you said you were cleaning up after the kid all day... but I had hoped everything would go smoothly for you. next time I'll hope harder 
as far as I'm concerned, take your time, relax, and get the patch out when you can. there's no sense in hurting yourself just to get the code out faster.
I can't speak for anyone else, but I know *I* will still be around whenever you finish killing the bugs 
and really... let the community know if there's anything we can do to help... I'd bet most people would be more than happy (giddy?) to donate some time and energy to the cause.

I tried to start a betting pool in the forums on whether or not the stress test would be delayed again. I found 15 people willing to vote that it would be delayed, but a whopping ZERO people would bet on its being released on time.

I agree. Take your time. The thing I like about this game and it's community is the developer himself. He actually talks to the player base, not only to magazine interviews etc. Love you F!

Take care of your son, get your sleep and arrange your schedule with your wife.
After all that the perfect patch will emerge. I was so looking foward to this, but oh well what can we do but wait 
Family first then play time.
