It had to be done. This thread actually fell off from the first page! Lots of activity lately. Anyone want to guess what the blog will be about?
*crosses fingers that we will actually get a blog because so many other things are going on*
Well, it is a bit of an odd situation because the last blog hasn't been officially 'announced' yet. If they put up a new blog and sent out the usual e-mail about it there would likely be increased traffic on the website... which would lead to people noticing the prior blog... which they've been trying to avoid because some of the new features announced in that blog aren't active/working properly yet.
That said, I predict the next blog will either include more details about the land rush, info about alpha testing, or both. It will probably be timed to co-incide with the land rush (or alpha) going live.

There is a lot of action going on, but there is a bit of a lull when it comes to cool game-info. Totally understandable due to crunchtime though.
I hope once alpha starts that the alpha-players will treat us with mini-,midi-, macro- and megablogs of their own! Untill then we are probably in a dry spell while technical stuff gets worked out.
Let us find a way to reward alpha-players that give us exceptionally juicy info, so that we can lure them into giving up even more. :)
Edit: looking at you, CBDunkerson. :D

Heh. My working title for the thread has been 'Alpha insights' and I've been thinking about how to structure whatever in-game info we are able to glean on and off for about a week now.
So yeah, it's possible you've got me pegged. :]

Amigad, I've never done this until today, but I'm now finding myself clicking refresh on the blog at least once per hour today.
I think the largest problem they are facing is that Ryan is currently graciously answering every email that is sent in - which might lead to less time allotted to things like writing carefully-worded blog entries.

I am going to be recording video for the blog this afternoon at 4pm our time and I won't be leaving work until it's been finalized. Due to the way we're running the web site it may not be published live until tomorrow. That will depend on when I get done editing.

Nice, we get a video! I have really been enjoying the video blogs so far :)

This news is exceptional. Thank you. (It also implies I can stop hitting refresh for the next several hours!)

No you can't. Ryan's a tease, it'll really come out when you least expect it. Keep hammering that refresh button!

I don't think I appreciate your hostility towards other people's refresh buttons. You are merely trying to wear out their refresh buttons to reduce load on the goblinworks server so that YOUR refresh attempts will be faster and more successful.

Coolio, I've got tomorrow off of work so I can hopefully transcribe it the day of publication this time. :)

OK, blog is done. But like I mentioned before it's a bit too late to push tonight, so we'll unleash it tomorrow in the morning (Pacific time).
You know.... technically, sunrise (aka 'morning') in Redmond was at 5:17am. :]
