I'm at 45% and 4.71KB/s. Make that 4.68.

1 hour, 8 minutes left.

I'll have it downloaded just in time to go to sleep.

Sorry about making the download 29 MB. A lot of that is the texturized backgrounds (which I'm sure some of you will have a lot of fun customizing, so it's worth it in the long run).


I don't care how big the file is and how slowly it downloads, because it's a hell of a lot faster than Fedex.

Hopefully me. 12 minutes to go (or so I'm told).

The only thing that sucks is that I won't be playing right away due to obligation of getting it to others.

I've emailed ViaTech about that. I know they just implemented address verification with credit card orders.

You might want to contact them directly - make sure they only charge your credit card once.

Relief is in site. mckerney has the file, and he's sending it to me right now. I have about 6 minutes to go, and once I receive it all, I'll be uploading it to two different mirror sites (and possibly even a third).
