I just want a clarification please, I haven't played since v0.09, I understand that the new season 2 download includes everything from the start of the game up through the latest update, but I wanted to be sure, is anything changed in the story or images BEFORE where the new season 2 content starts?
As Phoexist said, no new content/change for what you played so far... but S2 basically happens as if the changes were in place already. So new characters who you should meet in the rework the first time around are there, but we know nothing about them.

So you either have to bite the bullet and just brush some characters aside as "I will know more later, probably", or waiting for the rework to drop (let's not go into when and stuff like these).

Ok, thanks.
I'm assuming by who knows when it means wich update it will happen is unknown, and not just we don't know when the next update will drop, right?

Hello everyone, I (Mackenzie) am back.

Our goal with this Mind Drop is to announce the release date for the remainder of Day 32 as well as go over a few things.

We will also be quickly explaining what transpired over the past 1.5 months.


Let's start with the release date.

This will be a tiered release but it will be sped up due to the amount of delays.
(Available to all tiers as well as former patrons via Discord due to earlier promises)

HoF/MVP tier: January 26th 2PM EST
All Star: January 26th 6PM EST
Starter: January 26th 10PM EST
Sixth Man: January 27th 10AM EST
Bench Warmer: January 27th 2PM EST
Fan: January 27th 6PM EST
Former Patrons: January 27th 10PM EST
(We have chosen these days and times due to our personal schedules for this month.)


Side Content will resume after the update and after any potentially necessary bug fixes.

Though Rachael's Client polls will be resuming starting this upcoming Monday.

Dates for further side content will be published in the next Mind Drop that is planned for January 25th.


For those curious about the communication breakdown...

Before Braindrop hired me I had made it clear that I needed to have time off for Thanksgiving as well as Christmas. I had not been able to see most of my family since before Covid and this was my first opportunity to see them.

We had planned around this, I intended to work when I could by remote connecting into my home computer from my laptop, sadly not very long after I left my home town had really bad storms that knocked my power out long enough to drain my UPS. There was no one that I trusted enough to give access to my house when I wasn't there so there was no way for me to connect in.
(Due to how we have things set up, there was no way to log in via other devices without Braindrop being at home.)

I also received very few updates about Braindrop's condition, when I said I was going to return home for a week or two between Thanksgiving and Christmas he told me to go ahead and stay since we would be unable to accomplish much with the state he was in.
(For those unaware, Braindrop caught the flu then had an appendectomy that had complications. He is still recovering from the appendectomy as well as having pneumonia though he is doing much better and is mostly back to his normal life.)

When I returned we instantly started picking up the pieces together and planning out what we would do next.
We decided to wait a little and make sure the dates we picked would be completely solid for both of us.
We have also planned out a lot of what is to come. Things will be changing after this release but that will be talked about after the update.


One more thing we'd like to address is people being upset that we delete posts.

We only delete unscheduled out of ordinary posts such as the last few posted by Braindrop because they're usually delay announcements that we let go mostly unmoderated.
Their information is usually out of date by the recent posts and they caused confusion in the past by being left up.
We do not delete scheduled posts like Mind Drops and Side content.


That is all we have to share for today.
We will see you guys on Monday for the client poll and the next Mind Drop will be on the 25th.

Thanks for reading and thank you for the continued patience.
- Braindrop & Mackenzie

It takes a month for this, to pick a release date for a delayed update, and then another "things will be changing" post to come after this.

Thats the next 3 months of excuses already there, changes coming btw.

And not being able to login is another excuse, but it doesn't matter, Mackenzie+Braindrop is the same person anyway.

Peace :)

I'm not a patreon anylonger so I'm not sure, but I don't think he pauses pledges any longer (correct me if I'm wrong).

He did, but some time back he posted that he needs the money he gets out of this pure hobby to finance his family. So I wouldn't bet on him pausing pledges.
So like he says - assume he doesn't and adjust your pledges accordingly.

I thought the rework was done a year ago and would be released in June/July.
Last I remember he said the rework was intended to be released beginning of this year, potentially around January.
That was a few delays back though - so most likely not before Q3 (assuming there are no further delays) ... :whistle:

I already gave BD a final chance, where with the whole "Mackenzie" thing, was willing to push aside my suspicians and see, but BD only lasted 2 updates before reverting back and making it hard to believe anything that comes from him (oh excuse me, Mackenzie). Now if everything that's happened and has been posted is true, than I fully apologize for the things I've said and will admit I was wrong.

Sadly, that's probably not the case and as we've all figured, it's all most likely bs to save face, which sucks because I did respect BD for a long time, where when he was active on here, even when he started having to delay updates, it was understandable. Now though, as what is most likely excuses keep on coming out, and how he ruined his last chance to regain our trust, there's just nothing left to do except laugh at any announcement until the next updates drop and he starts actually keeping his word and not only giving out 1-2 updates before some other "event" happens.

You are correct, this is what ultimately made me quit my pledge and lose patience with him. I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt because pausing a pledge when you don't hit your deadlines is a very good faith gesture, and is indicative of someone that is forcing themselves to be accountable if not now, then some point down the road.

But once he had a child, his rationale became "well now I'm taking food out of my family's mouth if I pause" which is not an incorrect or bad sentiment, but now you need to show that initiative that you were working so hard to build. Content slowed to a total crawl. He'd sit for weeks doing absolutely NOTHING visible, and then would write a War and Peace-length treatise on all the reasons he couldn't do anything. This isn't (just) me making fun of him - the posts were literally so long that if he had spent that time on working on something he could show (even in rough draft form) it would have been preferable. He'd write 20 paragraphs, delete it and write 20 more.

Now we're in season 3, where his prime focus is the ten thousand health issues that constantly plague him. At this point, I'd almost rather he quit, because if I take him at face value, this job is literally killing him. He's taken more sick days in the last month than I have in my entire life combined. This is why everyone assumes at this point that he's a fraud - who would live like this?
