Sergei Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 "Okay guys, thats enough. The cover art has been decided on for some time now, and at least one person above is VERY WARM as to what we went with. You will all see it soon enough. By the way, you should see the new splash art for the CMBB:Special Edition, very cool. Madmatt" You poke them enough, and they drop bits and pieces of intel data for us Now, could someone with a good English phrase book define us, how many days is "soon enough"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's somewhere between "five long minutes" and "when it's done", but I don't have my phrasebook handy just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 For someone who has English as a first language, "soon enough" does not mean "soon". It is a phrase used by parents to put off questions by young children. "When is Santa Claus coming?" "soon enough" It's a phrase used when you are tired of hearing the question over and over. It may even be slightly derogatory. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted September 17, 2003 Share Posted September 17, 2003 Oh hush, garden gnome!!

MrSpkr now claims that he's going to use the money to promote school shootings in Texas. At least he's keeping the violence close to home... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will there be an online download that will allow me to experience Unconditional Surrender in Berlin?

There is also a CMBB demo on the DVD (not CD, I said DVD) included with certain editions of that issue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully he finds PC Gamer and picks it up, if not I'm sending him the DVD - good point, I bet his computer doesn't have a DVD player either! :mad: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
