Sensuki Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) We did this over at the Grim Dawn forums for the release of the Grim Dawn Alpha, but since the release is only a few months away (or is it!) now, I thought it would be fun to guess the release date of Pillars of Eternity. Gentleman's Rules: You can only post your guess once, first guess is the guess that will be used and will be compiled in the OP as a vertical list You can only pick a single date You can pick any date starting from September 1, 2014 You can have the same date as someone else, but it makes the "reward" for winning not as good Valid votes after a certain point may require a small donation (50c or $1) to the prize pool (we'll sort that out later) My guess is Tuesday, December 9th 2014. September 30th - Sad Panda November 3rd - Tankallex November 11th - Bogeyfox November 13th - Labadal November 17th - Malekith November 18th - Sarex, Immortalis November 19th - mstark November 20th - Sedrefilos November 25th - salo, Fatback, Bryy November 26th - Texoru November 27th - Macrae November 28th - Karranthain November 30th - TheTeaMustFlow December 1st - Zinnwaldite December 2nd - gamerdude130, Forlorn Hope December 3rd - Trodat December 4th - curryinahurry, HiroProtagonist December 5th - Doppelschwert December 6th - Elerond December 8th - NothingToSeeHere, Arouet December 9th - Sensuki, PieSnatcher, zhoom455 December 10th - Grace85 December 11th - SqueakyCat, artyom December 12th - IndiraLightFoot, wolfdyne December 14th - Namutree December 15th - Lephys December 16th (full) - Karkarov, MasterPrudent, Bendu, Urthor December 17th - Night Stalker December 18th - ashtonw, Pidesco, Zeckul December 21st - exodiark December 22nd - Arden December 23rd - ShadySands, vril January 5th, 2015 - Flow January 13th, 2015 - ManifestedISO January 15th, 2015 - nikolokolus, h^2 January 18th, 2015 - Lysen January 20th, 2015 - Sondai January 28th, 2015 - Gorbag January 31st, 2015 - JSFOCC February 6th, 2015 - BLnoT February 14th, 2015 - evilmiera March 10th, 2015 - MikeTheRed March 17th, 2015 - Lord Gorchnik April 1st, 2015 - gromnir June 16th, 2015 - Grunker Edited August 14, 2014 by Pidesco Update to the list. 6
Karranthain Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 I propose that the winner should get his post with an estimate liked by everyone else participating. There has to be some kind of stake here! My guess is Friday, November 28th 2014. 1
salo Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) My guess is 2014-11-25. Edit: more reasonable date formatting Edited July 27, 2014 by salo
IndiraLightfoot Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) Nice idea, Sensuki! I think it will be released December 13th 2014, for some weird numerological reason: 12-13-14. And Obsidian seems like the kind of guys defying superstition and the number 13. EDIT: Hmm, that's a Saturday - I guess I'll have to settle for 12-12-14 then. :/ Edited July 27, 2014 by IndiraLightfoot *** "The words of someone who feels ever more the ent among saplings when playing CRPGs" ***

Sensuki Posted July 27, 2014 Author Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) If there's multiple people that guess the date (there will probably be quite a few), we obviously can't give all of those people another digital download, but we'll work it out anyway. We could set it up so that everyone who wants to make a valid vote paypals X money (max of probably like $1) to the Obsidian Paypal account and then they sort out the reward redemption or something. We'll sort it out a bit later anyway. Edited July 27, 2014 by Sensuki
Sarex Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 November 18th 2014, like that other game. "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP

Yeah, could do a drawing etc. But for now...let the games begin!
salo Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 We should all pitch in and get the winner the expansion pack.

Sensuki Posted July 27, 2014 Author Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) I'll have to ask a moderator to edit the OP (Gfted1, Lady Crimson, Tigranes etc) and I'll just keep reposting the list November 17th - Malekith November 18th - Sarex November 25th - salo November 27th - Macrae November 28th - Karranthain December 1st - Zinnwaldite December 2nd - gamerdude130 December 9th - Sensuki December 12th - IndiraLightFoot December 16th - Karkarov June 16th, 2015 - Grunker I'll close the voting on September 1st as well.

Zinnwaldite Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 01.12.14 because,, why not.. Hopefully sooner though.. Like,, right now.
Grone Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 What if no one guesses correctly? Are we doing 'no winner' or 'closest is the winner' or what? Extensive Pillars Review & IE-retrospective | GURPS: The Witcher | Let's Play: Way of the Wicked | Where Journalism Goes to Write Itself

Yeah something like that. If there's like 6 people that are a day off they'd all get a prize or be up for a prize, depending on how many in's we get. Edited July 27, 2014 by Sensuki
Karkarov Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 (edited) I will say December 16th just to be different. For the format looney... 12-16-14 specifically.I won't be surprised if Indira turns out to be the winner though. Edited July 27, 2014 by Karkarov 1
Flow Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 They work right up until late December, and decide release before Christmas would create a support nightmare. Jan 5 2015
