Drats, calculating those time differences again... I'll just leave it open and check every hour on the hour then. Provided I have an internet connection, of course ::)

Yep you're right koko. No idea what I was thinking.

Well, you got closer than I would've on my first guess.

If you can hear the music, then you already have Flash installed.  Anyway, here's the link to download the latest version. :)

Okay, so I have downloaded the latest version. (although, I now think that I have had it but didn't realize it) Is the flash teaser the countdown, or is it something that I can not see. If it's only the countdown clock, then I think I am set. The frame thing isn't exactly the most important thing. I opened up the frame images seperatly in a browser window, and it just looks the same as the second KQ9 teaser. So I guess I am set. I like the theme a lot, but I am wandering if there is a way to download it to my computer and then transfer it to my PSP. (I only need to know how to download it to my computer, as I know how to bring it to my PSP.)

Now, all that I have to do is wait until the designated date, and I will either find out the release date of the game, the first trailer, or I will log on to see the first chapter of the game brought online. (I'm hoping for choice 3. Anyone else hoping for that?) Although I do think that it is a little too early for the entire game to be released. Maybe you will release a new chapter of the game each month or week in a new newsletter, as that would satisfy the eager waiters, (or basicaly everyone here) and it would give you more time to polish the game and add finishing touches.

I will be facing many sleepless night leading up to the day when all is revealed. Maybe you will announce the date of the game's release as well as the first trailer of the game simultaneously. (If it's a trailer, I hope it's a long one!  ;D)

Actually, I THINK it's 4 PM EST...but I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong :P
My calculations say five o'clock. Right now it's 7:31:12, and the countdown says 20 days plus 21:28:48. 7:31:12 + 21:28:48 = 7:32:00 + 21:28:00 = 8:00:00 + 21:00:00 = 29:00:00, and 29 - 24 = 5.

EDIT: It would be 4:00 if you're in an area that doesn't use Daylight Savings Time. That's probably what's causing the disagreement.
The best of our fiction is by novelists who allow that it is as good as they can give, and the worst by novelists who maintain that they could do much better if only the public would let them.

let me check my math...

my current time ~ 20:55
waiting time ~ 20 days 20 hours 5 minutes
my time is = -2:00 GMT so I gotta add +2:00 later

adding min: 20:40 + 20 min = 21:00

adding hours: 21:00 + 20:00 = 40:00
                    40:00 - 24:00 = 16:00 + 2:00 (GMT) = 18:00
/* since 24h can be removed that adds one more day to the waiting time */

adding days: 21 days from now will be May 15th

So it'll be on May 15th 18:00 - GMT time

For some reason I thought it was 5:00 at first too but I think it's 4:00 now too. BTW I DO use daylight savings. My reasoning is that the last time I looked at it, it said in three minutes it would be 20 hours plus however many days. So if at 8:00 EST there are 20 hours left how can it end up on an odd number? I counted it out when I made my post before and it works out to 4:00.

I guess the countdown will give you different results depending on which timezone you're in, and whether you are in daylight savings or not.

Anyway, it doesn't matter where you live in the world, once it hits 0, get ready! XD

what ever we're going to have in the next 2x days is awesome, I just so wish it will be the game itself...but ofcourse, a trailer or maybe a playable demo will do the job   :D

:D I made the front page my home page, so i'll be checking the countdown every weekend.

I don't care whether its the actual game or a trailer...  Once the trailer is released the game is sure to soon follow anyway.  Using the flash intro was a great way to get the word out...  i refreshed a couple times to make sure i wasnt seeing things.

Guys

The truth is out there. Already.

It's the countdown to the official release of KQ9 pudding in supermarkets worldwide.  Chocolate and vanilla swirl because even the pudding can't figure out if it wants to join the light or dark side.
It's peanut butter jelly time!

Only 20 days! I'm so excited I can't wait to play the game. I'd better work on my fanfiction in the meanwhile.

I have all the inspiration I need...but I'm lazy.  :P

I think I'll say it here again/also/etc. I seriously doubt the game's going to be released in 20 days. Look at what they have to finish: to start with, the Character Contest and the online voice auditions. And I'm sure there's more going on behind the scenes that isn't finished...and maybe some other work that's not behind the scenes and I just can't remember what it is. But there's going to be a huge announcement in 20 days. I believe that's what we're looking forward to and speculating about.

What do YOU think the big announcement is?

What are you guys talking about? ??? I've gone over the web pages and haven't found a counter or anything! Where is it? (Maybe I need to purge my browsers cache)
All that is gold does not glitter
Not all who wander are lost
The old that is strong does not wither
Deep roots are not touched by the frost

From the ashes a fire shall be woken
A light from the shadows shall spring
Renewed shall be blade that was broken
The crownless again shall be king
