Actually yeah, I would. It would sure cut down on Chris going "off-script" and accidentally promising something to the people paying to keep his Porsche topped up with premium unleaded.

I'd go to the thread and let them know the goon plan is working, but my delicate ego can't handle the down votes.

Someone want to let them know the true goon plot? You know, buying jpeg accounts on the gray market at a discount and then refunding for the full price.

I'm tempted to start a photoshop thread and post the GIF, but I have nothing to offer other than the image to let other goons run with their creativity. That's why I offered it up to the general audience.

That's not really fair. We all know the dev cycle is:

Make something
CR rejects it
Remake something
CR rejects it
Remake something
CR accepts it
CR publically announces that it will do something it doesn't
Remake something
CR rejects it

Trust me, there's a whole lot of dev going on there. In fact, to even accomplish the most basic things, far far more development is required than it would be for any other game due to Chris Roberts and his unique project management style.

My dogs are really friendly too. Well the Rottweiler has brain damage or something from his seizure disorder so you're fine unless you're a car. The pit bull is ridiculously sweet though.

Honestly I'm not that worried. At this stage it seems like the only folks who are left are the sad shut-ins who don't have much else to cling to (this is the part where they make the same assertion about us). Sunlight and socializing don't really strike me as something they would look for.

We've looked at 3.0 and said. We need that and that and that and then we found: drat, that's more than has so many complete game. Therefore, we develop a detailed plan for all tasks and subtasks.
So, they are still going to make the plan of what is missing/necessary to complete 3.0. The same 3.0 that was supposed to be out in 3 months time by Dec 19th? Nice.

Ever seems Update 3.0 and the associated features to have had a significant impact on the displacement of the single-player campaign at 2017.
Ongoing progress in 3.0 is going to have a huge impact in Squaron 42, the game that already had all missions completely greyboxed and that was supposed to have a vertical slice out last month. Nice.
All is well in CIG land — even the citizens think so.

I for one am glad you got your hopes up for a 3.0 release in December, bought a new picture, and now are doubling down and using the tired "Well, chris actually meant.."
