My wife said to me last night 'Can you believe it's November tomorrow?' and my honest to goodness first thought was 'Only 50 odd days left...'.

Seriously.

You're talking to the guy that suggested Kal El as the name for their son. And the wife who was OK with that until she found out it was Superman's name.

[Is it december yet?]

well is it?

There has to be an obscure calendar somewhere that says it is.

You could try the calender of Romulus or the calender of Numa. Couldnt find any calculators for em though and I'm not going to try and look into it myself. But while you're waiting 50 days...

To give you some hope:

The rumours that whole deployable thing is causing are hilarious right now.

Havent ventured to the official boards, but I get its fun there too (basically rumour says guilded folks will get access first to the headstart etc etc")

Wow, this one snuck up on me. And it's not even Friday!

All jolly exciting. Also, all of our Allies and Adversaries are ready for deployment.

Very cool.
