    Will the new date require undamaged ships?

    In light of recent issues with damaged ships I'm going to guess this pushes back release until end of summer. I'll take September 3, 2014 please?

    Ok I am confused. Have I missed something, what is the new date for? I thought Wave 2 hit the warehouse on 5/20 ending the contest. Is this for Victory and Constitution or when Wave 2 is officially released?

    Ed can confirm, but I believe he's allowed folks to change their Victory/Constitution dates due to ship production issues and damage to Wave 2? The Wave 2 contest is definitely over and no one was a winner (although Eric was darn close).

    You have until Thursday the 22nd to change your date that the Victory/Constitution arrive at the Anchorage.

    Yes, the 21st of October 1963 was a glorious day. Or, wait, were you referring to something else?

    I will take it.

    Thank you, Ed.

    If history is an indicator, they will come in on October 20th.

    I looked at Ares website, and there wasn't any indication of the ships coming in during the summer. I wasn't sure if these being special would not be posted as other releases. The 21st of October would be poetic.

    I'll pick September 7th. It's my daughter's birthday and it rhymes with Pearl Harbor day.

    Pick a date ended last Thursday. But since your name sounds Polish, I'll make one exception.

    PS You might want to change your daughters Birthday. Sept. 7th falls on a Sunday.

    OK, then it can be September 25th. That's my wife's birthday. Maybe a miracle might let ME get a present that day. Thank you for being considerate.

    I'll ask Keith to let me know the date they arrive at the Anchorage..

    The winner will get their choice of any SoG ship with the exception of the 4 Kickstarter or Victory & Constitution ships.

    Must receive entries by Dec 23rd. And you can't pick a date used by someone else.

    Extended, you will have until Thursday May 22nd to change your date, even if your date has passed

    Hopefully there will be a winner this time.

    Oh, yes there is....

    Who here kept saying "this contest is pointless, because there's no way Ares will make any of the proposed dates"?

    Three contests and I still have all my ships. Even though there was a seven month spread on the picks.

    Well, I did try to warn all of you: Gaming companies are infamous for their inability to achieve a given release date -- the product is either done correctly, but late; or on time but riddled with bugs; or, most often, Late and Buggy. Esp. with the Wave 2 clusterf***, there was no way on this Earth Ares was going to release them before year's end.

    I guess I can wrap this up with this classic bit of video:
