are we (me :) )pushing to hard?

The only thing to remember is that right now, we're not beta testing, we're alpha testing. Alpha tests are normally done internally.

Many people aren't used to that, they are used to betas that are relatively feature complete. The BETA for this game won't be ready until April. So we'll be movin towards that goal with weekly releases and the progress should be pretty significatn with each weekly release.

OK
Are you reading this guys? We get to work on this for the next (almost) 4 months.

Man, this feels so nice!

And to you, Brad, Cari and the rest of Stardocks: Just keeps us at it! Tell us, when we're pushing too much. We'll back down. After all we're here to help you - not to have you people do our every whim.

I must admit that I enjoy this immensely..

You're all doing fine. We actually have TEN months before release. To put it in perspective, we've only begun adding features since September or so. Much of what you're playing was recently added. the alpha is actually further along than we had intended due to DM taking a bit longer to get going.

Plus my work on WindowBlinds 3 delayed the AI part a lot.

Ok, at least we got a job for 4 months LOL
and at this time is not that bad..
