When did you pre-order?

If anyone else posts their copy is shipping it would be nice to know what date they pre-ordered.
Thanks!

I think that I've pre-ordered around the end of march.

Shipping Update

Okay. We are finished for the day. Orders placed through April 01, 2006 went out today.

We are shipping another round tomorrow, but only have a half day to do so. So probably fewer orders will ship tomorrow.

We will be working all weekend. Expect Monday to be the single largest day. And then we will hopefully finish up on Thursday.

Frankly, I'd be wowed by 500 - 1,000 for pre-orders and expect less than that.
Be wowed then. Be really wowed!

That's awesome. I am really, really pleased to hear that. Thrilled even.

I'd love to know ballpark but I'll take it from the "really" that I underestimated by a considerable amount.

Awesome indeed.

got the email notification!!!

good thing I've ordered at 23/03.

What a great and joyful news this is. I wonder how much time is expected for the shipment to reach across the world to Israel... My oh my, even more waiting to come.

(Guess I'll use that time to recheck my PTO balance )

Awesome, this is good to hear. Actually we were talking with my mates here about this 2 days ago, my bet was 2500 pre-ordered copies. Maybe the truth is close to that.

Ahhh then I have done my job well.
Just kidding. But I have been talking up Dom3 in a number of large forums.

This is the best press release of a shipping game I've ever read, and certainly does the game justice. I especially like the part mentioning Shib-Niggurath, a name I've been muttering to myself in moments of excitement for years. How long do you think it will take to get to Virginia since it shipped today?

It is not guaranteed, but Virignia is supposedly next day. Look for it tomorrow.

Just wanted to thank you for keeping us so informed about the shipping process and date estimates Tim.

Sadly I waited until April 18th to order mine and now I must pay for my procrastination...
