You're a lost cause so I'm not gonna hammer on that nail.

Damn and here I was thinking today was 08/01/11 for some dumb reason. Who knows as this point when it will come. I'd be SHOCKED and STUNNED if Vader was somehow able to coordinate the timing of an announcement with UMC.

It's a long weekend here so it will either be today or Tuesday or, of course, later

No fair! How come Canadians get a long weekend? Granted I'm not working today

Although I'm spending most of the day trying to find job opportunities in Calgary so it feels like work just with more forum freedoms

So they turn off the internet in Canada on August 1st? That's one powerful holiday!
Regardless of when the announcement gets made, it will happen next week.... or tonight.... or sometime between now and Jan 23, 2012.

Posting a message and updating the Facebook page takes so little effort that as a businessman I'm thinking it won't be an issue.

BWAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHA! pengy! that is very true. but that would be better than the alternative - half way to Jan and less than half the bands?!?!

From this day forward, everyone should translate the word, "soon" into "at least 1 month from now."

by **KDibildeaux** » Fri Jul 29, 2011 5:28 pm

yeah, really. Where the hell is the webstore?

by **Ravenlord** » Fri Jul 29, 2011 5:38 pm

There isn't that much involved in setting it up. The most work will come from having to post shirts all around the world...

To avoid all the postage thing, they could do it in a different way. People could order the shirts now and get them on the cruise :) The staff could put them in the cabins of the people that have paid for them.

We thought that last time. Heck, we figured we were getting "swag bags" due to all the sponsors - maybe issues to magazines, posters, stickers. But if they can't announce bands in a timely fashion I shudder to think how they would get the right "merch" to your room. My smells a total disaster

Well, those are two completely different things. If they just have a list with cabin numbers and purchased items, they could have the staff from the boat deliver them. But ok, something that seems simple and easy for us might be complicated for them

I thought about that too. Sounds like such a simple idea. The Royal Caribbean staff delivers the crap you buy in the duty free shops so it's not like they couldn't pull it off.

Yeah, I'd thought that, too. Though for now I'm still looking for my 2011 shirt

would be funny to finally get that on the 2012 cruise

You might want to invest in a new deodorant stone, if you catch my whiff.

You're throwing UMC into the mix. Not a good idea

Soooo, I have my pitchfork sharpened.....and my torch in the other hand. Where is everybode else?

by **Ravenlord** » Sat Jul 30, 2011 5:49 pm

...right behind you... in the pub.

by **mooyagi** » Sat Jul 30, 2011 6:13 pm

I wouldn't wait for the Irish to join up. Might be a while before they get out of the pub

Why can't we have a long weekend?? Contrary to popluar belief, we don't do everything Amuuurrica does ya know. Go fix your broke ass country working more!

lol

How's the job search going?
Even though yes,it is a long weekend here, I worked both yesterday and today doing Inventory-- yay me.

This place is beyond fixing.

Job search is frustrating as hell. It's hard to stand out when Canadian companies want to hire Canadians or at least people already living there.

The last very important Annoucement from Andy in Person was that english is the official Forum Language.
That seems to be very important, fuck about the Bands ...
When was Hammerfall announced? I think it was last winter .....

Nice! what town? (not that I know of that many towns in Holland

)

by **Digimortal** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 6:02 pm

Its a small town called Kampen. Last Thursday and the next three are called "Kampenui(t)dagen", which attract quite some tourists.
And every first Kamperui(t)dag there is a sort of medieval show and ppl dressed up and stuff. I like it

by **Laura** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 6:06 pm
