Title: Freakout about the signing
Post by: JCHancey on July 01, 2010, 06:16:42 AM
OK sooo I was wondering if the signing for Way of Kings is on the 30th releasing at midnight or all on the 31st.

It's a midnight release, midnight of the 31st.

And by midnight of the 31st, you mean starting the minute after 11:59 PM of the 30th?

That is typically what midnight releases are, yes? The very first minute of the launch day. :P

12 hour flight to see Brandon? Good to see that dedication!  :)  I would have asked if there was a closer signing for you, but as you are flying 12 hours, I think not as I don't believe Brandon is signing out of the U.S. for Wok. At least for now.

I'm guessing he's leaving the country right after, and was worried we would leave before the signing.... Just my guess ;)

Ah yes, good point. That makes more sense. 

A lot of people live near Brandon who frequent this board. :)

Are there going to be any midnight releases outside of Utah?

My guess is that would be determined by bookstores individually.

Oh, OK. Cause if you were going on a mission, I might slip you an ARC. But that theory wasn't fitting what you said, so no ARC for you.

unless teaching kids English is his cover for his CIA counter-cold-war-that-they-told-us-is-over-but-really-isn't-operation...thing.

its the only plausible explanation.

I should convert, then go on a mission to get an ARC ;) Though, that would be going a long way to get an ARC.

And I'm fairly certain you wouldn't have it before August 31st....But that's just a minor detail.
