Sorry but it is just because we were as much in the dark that anyone else but Chr1s told me yesterday night that entropy got some update from the ones who will support PGTour and they are just very busy ATM due to some circomstance but everything should be settled soon.
The thing is, when we get the server and all, we will need some time to update BNet-X and the Launcher, it won't open in the same day. Things like that requier a lot of work and do not work all by itself by magic
And I am very busy recently because I got promoted to Director's assitant position where I work and it's a lot of responsabilities and a lot of things to do and to learn o_O
Anyway, just keep the faith
So let me get this straight: You didn't confirm that this sponsor has commited itself to delivering you the server. You didn't tell us when you might get the server. And you didn't tell us how long it will take to bring PGT back up after you get the server.
Can we at least have the details of the sponsor? If you can't reveal this information, it would seem kind of dumb, because then, technically, they aren't sponsoring you. They would be giving you money and remaining anonymous(sp?).

You _NEVER_ reveal sponsorship information until the deal is finalized. Serious people don't do that. Revealing the sponsor name now by the PGTour staff would probably cost them their sponsorship. This is because before a side has commited itself, it usually doesn't like to be under any sort of pressure, also this is bad for marketing - they aren't able to procure the necessary statement when the deal is done since everybody knows and in the event they decide to turn down the deal, everyone will hold them responsible for it.
I'm just glad that Pat has decided to continue working on this dispite the fact that he gets no physical rewards.
Know this though Pat...you are, and forever will be, a legend in the SC community. Thank you for all you have done, and if you continue to work for us in the future, it will be nothing less or more than icing on the cake. In short, you rule.
It's been well over that week. Anybody got anyword on this? I'm assuming since nothing from PAT that the sponsors fell through, shitty assumption but c'mon!? News pls Gawd.

Er sry about that when I think Saturday I think in CET (6 PM EST). I have to coordinate with how WGTour works. (That is when we scheduled to end the season, so that's why that date in particular was in my head)

Yeah I didnt mean it would open, I meant 5 days til we hear the news... then however many days it takes to get it up. Yeah I worded it horribly. I kinda meant since we waited so long before, its not like we cant wait again. Patience is a virtue.
