I'm sure we'd rather have a new release that works first time when it's released, 2 weeks really isn't alot of time when you think about everything that needs to be done.

I think, Rob, that almost everyone on this thread would agree with you -- Please make sure the new goodie works properly before you release it.

I think the real objection many of us have is that the developers stated that something specific and very desirable -- Farm 6 and new levels -- was coming soon. I have reviewed all 20 releases since February 19 in detail, and only one other hinted at something specific to come. The "evidence" has been deleted, but in the July 1 release Raul stated that Farm 5 would be released "Friday". After that first Friday passed, most posters to the forum were debating WHICH Friday Raul was referring to.

So that would make twice that the developers have told us something specific was coming and then not been able to fulfill their promise within a reasonable time. Given 20 releases in 194 days, 15 days and counting starts to try one's patience.

Perhaps the developers would be wise to take ellshere's advice and REMEMBER THE FLOWERS!!!

Please don't announce something new until you're releasing it. Actually, it would seem more appropriate that the announcement come first as we log onto our farm! Then we can come to the Forum for details!
