i told you my personal story to tell you this. i have a very warm spot in my heart for that team member. and i know he's still having problems dealing with the loss of his child (as would anyone). it's easy for us to sit back and piss and moan that we're not getting what we were told we would and not bring into account that these guys have personal issues just like the rest of us. i think because they're called the "Elite Team", we tend to hold them more accoutable to things. but at the end of the day, they're all still human with human problems and situations. to be brutally honest, if i was to lose any of my children, i would be totally incapacitated for quite some time and anything that i was working on other than my family and my job would be put on hold.

i know i was one of the main piss and moaners. it just took me thinking about my own experience to give these guys a break.

clhatch - i know you guys have good intentions but please, let this go.

Understood, and thanks for the insight. My apologies to any offense or hurt my statements may have caused. And I agree that they should still close this tread and open a new one when they are ready to release a ROM based on their TP2 kitchen. Looking forward to it!
