Remember an update regarding the LIVE team feeling under the weather and suspending their monthly update?

http://games.slashdot.org/story/09/0...-PAX?art_pos=5

I hope the live team will see their doctors immediately.

Blah one of those flights came into Phoenix. Stupid freaking pig flu.

I hope for everyone involved that it's just simple concrud, and not this.

I'm sure they'll have gone to see a doctor by now if they were worried that it was something more than just con plague.

H1N1 isn't really as huge of a deal as the media's made of it, though; I remember when it first broke out and people were flipping out over it and then it was discovered that most of the deaths attributed to it were actually from other things.

Ladies and gentlemen, the voice of reason. Try basic hygiene...it's amazing what can be prevented just by washing your hands.

we all had a blast at pax this weekend, but the fallout is rampant illness tearing through the live team. With so many people out sick, we have decided to delay the scheduled skill balance until next week. Sorry guys! *heads back to bed*

And they're not canceling the update, they're just delaying it a week.

Anyway, closed.
