If you're speed reading, you're missing the point. "Conversational reading" provides a better experience.You're right. it was unfair of me to round up when I should have taken the time at face value.
The opposite actually. because while I may have overstated the gap in releases its possible I understate the time it will take to get through the new update. I did say time expected may change based on word count. but none the less I am historically a very fast reader. I once read 10 800+ page books in 11 days in my free time outside of working a full time job. and I usually finish through an update in any given game in considerably less tame than is estimated as a result.
as such I do not believe it was unfair of me to only expect so little time to complete the update, but I should have prefaced that I am a fast reader with my expectations.
I'll read a report in no time (keeps me from falling asleep); but I rarely, if ever, use my ability on a book or an AVN - you miss the point of the world building and mood setting when you do and do a great disservice to an author.
"Look at me! I can read really, really fast!" Great. Now, what did you get out of what you read? Maybe some facts and some quotes, but not an experience.
I pity you.
