I did not realize that just like his patrons BlueCat was also a gold level mental gymnast. He must be getting high on his followers supply of copium or something, there is no other way to justify this. I mean even looking at his terms it is "weeks" away because 3-20 days includes a time range greater than two weeks. I gave up on this game a while ago and am just here for the shitposting

To be fair, plural literally just means more than one.
Bluecat was pretty on the nose here.
So if it takes 10 weeks, that's still weeks.
But he said it's a matter of days not weeks not months.
Which, if you're being a hardass means that anything over 7 days is going over his own deadline.
Even if you were super lenient and relaxed about it(because why wouldn't you be after one and a half years of missed deadlines), anything over two weeks is breaking your word.

technically, 33 days is still days.

I'm assuming he didn't really mean this as a defense of BC, but still need to say this:

I'm not a native speaker ... but technically, 1 day is 0.14 weeks, right?
Technicalities (while fun) are not really helpful here.
The very fact that this is even debated pretty much means that yet another deadline was missed.

But it's ok! Should an update be released at some point in the future, it will surely be within the (then current) deadline...
At this point his deadlines are only serving a comedic purpose.

When someone says days away that means it is close, not weeks, and certainly not months that is why one can also state something is weeks away or months away from happening. If you use the term days people expect it in that context. Not in weeks and definitely not in months.

He did not say we were talking weeks he said we were talking days. He clarified it would not be weeks or months yes he could mean 33 days but you know what 33 days is? A month, and do you know what a month is? 4 weeks.

Edit: For the record, I was assuming BC pulled the numbers out of thin air to excuse the time it was taking for this release.

It turns out I was wrong. He was actually reiterating something he had said . Probably doesn't mean much to most people, but to each their own...

Did you miss the full context? First BC said

next update will be released as soon as possible
we're talking about days, not weeks, not months, just days.
You can't say that and reasonably expect people to interpret it as "any conceivable number of days". If I were to put numbers to that, I'd say 13 days or less (ie. less than 2 weeks). Of course, this is BC so I know better than to try to get anything concrete from an ambiguous statement.

And naturally BC went somewhere no-one could have predicted, and said that:
"weeks" means more than two weeks.
So apparently two weeks is not weeks.

so the time range is about 3 days to 20 days.
So apparently two weeks + 6 days (ie 20 days) is not more than two weeks!

And it's not even really his tortured logic that gets me, but rather the arrogance of acting like it should be universally accepted and understood.

You just can't make this shit up. :ROFLMAO:

exactly if he would not come off as so arrogant he would probably be less criticized or in the very least people would not jump at any opportunity to criticize him or laugh at his "logic"
but I guess he can't admit fault... in his mind probably the players are at fault for the delay of the update.
But these are all my assumptions .. they might be totally wrong, might be.
So....take what I said with a truck of salt :D

You're correct, but that's literally just semantics. On the other hand we would say '0.1 week' and 'a half week' but 'two quarter weeks' (if those quantities made any sense).

Well, given BC doesn't use "our" timezones (and uses catzone) maybe he is using his cat math to come up with his 3-20 days? Plus, maybe it's his cat MTL translating his posts in the attempt to convey what he means.
I mean, cats will sit in a drawn square on the floor believing it to be a box so who knows what metaphysical processes go through his cat mind? :Kappa:

I was just joking but I think that made people mad lmao. I was trying to be funny, but I guess that's not allowed here, and caused a lot of people's panties to get twisted. My entire point was, he's going to release it when he wants to. Whether people like it or not, they have no control over him and there's no clad iron agreement that's going to force him to adhere to their meaning of his words. At the end of the day it is what it is. I come here occasionally just to check on the news, and that's it. Idc whether people like it or not, but feelings have shit to do with him keeping to his schedule.

This whole situation and especially the steadily growing discontent among supporters is starting to remind me of a certain famous game about a psychopathic possessive high school girl...

Would you mind name dropping this game?
