Interesting that is says "DNF pre-order ships on 9/14/03"

Foreshadowing anyone? <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

Well, I still pre-ordered last night. Because, well, it's HL2...

Don't Brits do like 30/3/03 (DD/MM/YY) and Americans do 3/30/03 (MM/DD/YY)? Darn you Brits and your funky metric system!

(BTW, that was my birthday, all odd numbers W00T!)

Rellix

The british system makes more sense going from smallest to biggest.

Everyone except US does it the DD/MM/YY way which does make the most sense. (I'm from US)

Sephiroth2k

Well if you think about it, the US's goes from smallest to largest also, but with maximums. US goes Month/Day/Year. There are 12 max months, 365 max days (or 31, whichever way you look at it) and 2003 years.
-edit- Oh, and HL2... Pre-Order: Ships on 11/14/2003

Actually the DD/MM/YY system is the most accurate and widely used.

BTW, I am Gordon Freeman.

There's nowhere near me I can pre-order it <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

I can pre-order Unreal Warfare though. GAME seem to think that'll ship any day now <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo-->

Speed_2_Dave

just to clarify, the way I saw it done in Germany was as follows
DD.MM.YY (or DD.MM.YYYY)
or
MM/DD/YY

please note the difference. I use this method to avoid confusion among friends and family now that I live in the US again. I always date my papers using the Day.Month.Year method. I don't know if that's the accepted way to do it or not, but that's the only way I've seen the system used until recently when some US companies started (imo) <b>mis</b>-using the Day.Month.Year system. I guess they were too 'leet to switch to using periods or decimal points as apposed to slashes. /me shrugs
