heatherndan, I'm 99% sure that I read somewhere that there would be no option to preorder the game. I can't find the post I'm thinking of at the moment though...
Oh, ok, thank you for responding to my question, though. \:\)

Yes but I was asking about preordering the game before it actually comes out so that paypal will have a chance to come through before we can play. Otherwise, when the game comes out, I'll buy it with paypal and then it will take a couple of additional days before I can play.

It takes that much longer when you use paypal?

Yeah, it takes paypal itself a while to process, and in the meantime, LDW e-mails the confirmation when they receive the payment. So, it is only fair that it works that way.

I agree heather, pre order and pay would be a good idea. I guess the biggest problem with that would be if something happened and the game wasnt released, all the payments would need to be reversed! My comment was actually in response to someone who said they check another site, but i think i mis- interpreted their comment anyway lol!

Yeah, I could see how it may get kind of messy. It was just a thought. \:\)

The biggest problem would be if the payment did not go through Paypal. Like the check bounced or they never got the check, something like that.

The person would have the activation key but LDW wouldn't have their money. While I'm sure nobody here would do that it still leaves open the possibility of abuse by others.

Yeah, but we would still have to wait for the payment to clear before they gave us the activation code. They couldn't give the code until it comes out anyway. But, that was what I meant when I said that I could see how it could get messy, so I don't blame them at all for not doing it. \:\)

That may be why Carla discussed the demo for this version having limited features vs a time limit. At least people can be actually playing some of it while they wait to get the full version. \:\)

You can find out exactly what she said here
