Football Manager 2008

He's online over at the SI forums as I speak, reading the thread and saying absolutely nothing.

I wouldn't mind but it takes the piss when he's right there reading the comments and not letting anybody know what the situation is.
 
Yeah just been having a look myself.. I know it's a bad thing to judge on but he just sounds like such a tosser and his grammar is awful. Not insinuating that will effect the update, but still.. doesn't intill you with hope.

There's a Susie update out, not sure whether to just boycott Weegie and give this a whirl.
 
I wouldn't, people have said that it's not perfect even if it is second best. I'll be waiting. He's just posted this so I'm giving him until after the England match...

Right im bloody sick

I do have a life you know guys, i have been going on & offline as i have other stuff to do besides the update. Ive taken the link down for now cause theres somethin i forgot to do which im doing now. I will then upload again twice (different sites, these will be filefront & megaupload) i will then edit my opening post in this thread and post the link, unfortunatly i cant post the list of changes as that was on the forum and its down.

Btw there are alot of ungrateful people on this forum, as the update is something i do in my spare time after work/family/social time. Its something i choose to do for others when i could easily not bother. Oh btw and i cant be blamed for the forum going down, i can guarentee there were hundreds of people refreshing the forum every min when i created a thread earlier in the day asking them not too as it would kill the server. I came on the forum briefily before having to go out to visit my ill grandad, now im back ill try & get it back out before i have to go out again later.

Ill post more info later on.

oh and btw people saying why post the link here instead of forum, remember i am forking out money for domains etc, so if i posted here then ill be wasting my money on a domain which you cant cancel once you buy it

I hope he learns a lesson from this; never, ever post a release date unless you have it ready to upload and you are a thousand percent sure.
 
Exactly.

I find his 'I'm just fixing something I forgot to do'.. noticing something he 'forgot' more than 24 hours after the expected release date.
 
The fact that he's just posted this:

I WOULD ACTUALLY FIND IT HILLARIOUS IF HE TURNED ROUND AND SAID NAHHHHH IM NOT DOING IT

Id be lying if i said i wasnt tempted after reading this thread

...doesn't fill me with confidence.

He's fishing for "OH PLEEEASE GIVE US THE UPDATE YOU LOVELY MAN, WE LOVE YOU, IGNORE ALL THE DOUBTERS, YOUR PENIS IS HUGE!"-style comments.

So if one more person tells him he's had people staying up until 2am just because he didn't have the decency to explain the situation, he'll keep it for himself?

Sad man, sorry, but sad sad man.

I really can't believe the amount of disrespect you guys are showing him. IMHO he should just not release it and spite you.

He's providing an update for FM, it's not like he's in Africa handing out food and building shelter.

Provide a release date, or don't, but don't provide a release date and then sit over a thread for four hours watching people say "I'm staying up an extra hour in-case he releases it" without saying a word.

I've made updates for PES and FIFA from 1999 onwards, and if I ever provided a release date I would know for a fact it would be met. And if I went into a thread where people were staying up until a ridiculous hour to download it, I would certainly tell them what the situation is.

Who cares if he releases it or not, the new FM is out soon enough. The fact that he's being so arsey about it - "I've uploaded it but I'm not giving you the link", "I'm watching over the thread but I'm not saying anything, I'm going to watch you squirm" - is what is pissing people off.

This is a ridiculous statement.. no offense.

But the guy is clearly enjoying this.. if all he wanted to do was provide a service and release an update.. he would just post the link instead of all the messing around.
 
Hahahahaaa, that didn't work out for you did it Milanista?!

"I'll just click that; oh wait, it says 'Rick Roll' at the top, perhaps I won't."

:lmao:

EDIT: You rotten post deleter you. :(

I hope he can get his forums back online tonight, and thus post the links so we can have the WeeGiE updates for tomorrow :)).

CB, if you manage to grab hold of it, reckon could you do us our own Evo Web mirror?
 
He's supposedly uploading it now Tim, I'm sure if it comes up within the next 45 minutes as promised that Beattie and I will mirror it to Taiwan and back. Just to spite the fella.

So you'd wish a virus upon yourself just to see us pissed off.. which you wouldn't actually be able to see because neither you nor us would be able to come on the forums?

Seems silly to me.

He's asked people not to mirror it; as if they're not going to mirror it after waiting 24 hours for it...

Ugh.. he posted saying that it's up and to check the original post.. which was last edited at 5.20.

Surely you'd edit the post first then refer people to it?

Jesus.

EDIT: Got it now.. I was just being pessimistic.
