How will us pre-order customers get our game early?

As advertised, pre-order customers will receive the game two days prior to wide release.

As June 1 approaches, I'm just curious how we'll be able to get it early. Will the download link just come via E-mail?

Back to continuing to anxiously await release. Giving this game a shot for the first time, after having played Mogul exclusively, and, I hope my $29.99 was worth it.

On that note, have any Vista-related issues I've read about, been addressed for OOTP 10?

Boy are you in for a great time! A few weeks from now you'll be thinking back as to how much Mogul sucked.

Mogul vs OOTP? OOTP wins by first round KO. That would be like Gary Coleman fighting Manny Pacquiao.

OOTP is great but Mogul does have its charm.

I started as a Mogul player then went to both Mogul and OOTP and this is the first year I am only getting OOTP. Main reason is Mogul is not out for Mac but OOTP is the better game.

What I liked about Mogul was how freaking fast you could get through say 20 seasons. I always liked the trading and drafting aspect of that game. It was fun. But it was hamburger. OOTP is a fine Porterhouse.

Will it go in alphabetical order like previous years? I remember some having to wait a while to get their emails.

It's not alphebetical, unless it's by username here, my email starts with an H and I always get them 6+ hours after they start going out (although I did peve off duffy so he may have just moved me to the end of the list).

A man in a trench coat will come to your house, and read a series of riddles to you. Only if you solve each riddle, will you get the game.

The last newsletter advertised first week of June, so, have patience. Even if it meant June 1, that means we won't get our pre-orders until tomorrow (U.S. time).

I was more curious, than anything else, so that I didn't delete any potential E-mail by mistake, and then have to go chase Markus, etc. down, for another copy of it.

Maybe my email is on west coast servers, that would be a wierd way to do it though... For 2006 for instance the link was anounced, waited 30 min, PMed Duffy, he manualy looked up my info, emailed me a copy of the link and 7 hours latter I got the offical one from the ootp link. Happens for all of the news letters also, I normaly read them here before I get them in my email box.

Wishful thinking. If it were to be released on Monday, then 2 days before for preorderers is tomorrow.

I, for one, picked the 2nd week in June in the poll.

I think this part of his query got lost in the release date discussion. Can anyone enlighten us on whether OOTP's compatibilty problems with VISTA have been addressed?

Believe me, if I could I would be playing OOTP 9, not investing my time complaining about the OOTP/VISTA issuse!
