Moratorium[edit]

For the purposes of setting the expiration date, the PDF of this title was released on 28 May 2011. However, because it is also a DTF product, the two-month limit applies to that release date. Issue is, the street date was never announced (as far as I can tell), but I recall receiving my pre-ordered copy two weeks ago. Therefore, I'm establishing the limit date for this product to be 28 August. I'll change the date on the banner, accordingly. Please discuss if you believe my inferences to be incorrect.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 00:11, 13 July 2011 (UTC)

The product page on the Classic Battletech main page sites its July 20th. -- Wrangler 00:21, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Awww....fudgesicles! I missed that entry. Thanks! As noted, the announced street release date is 20 July, so two months following would be 20 September. Thanks, Wrangler.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 00:42, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Wait...over a week away. But I have a copy of it now. Okay, I think we should be allowed to use fact versus announcement, when it comes to the moratorium, Afterall, I've had it for two weeks, so 13 July can't be right. I suggest we go with in-hand experience, including people picking up copies at special events (such as conventions). What say you, Wrangler?--Revanche (talk|contribs) 00:45, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
Well, you out rank me on that. However, i'd would go by what site says. Only because others will refer to it. Conventions tends to be ahead of the release dates depending on the distribiture from my experience. I don't go to conventions so i wouldn't know. :p -- Wrangler 00:59, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
In the past we have worked from con dates, but logically I'd agree that doesn't count as a proper "street date". Cyc 01:04, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
No, I don't out-rank you, Wrangler. We are colleagues, though I may have added responsibilities (and I'm way more handsome). I'm just as beholden to the consensus as anyone else. And, since you two are using a more cautionary perspective, I'd be wise to heed it.--Revanche (talk|contribs) 01:56, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
