Unless you're an active developer, don't bombard Fred with PM's. He knows there's demand and he know 7800 aficionados will want one. I can wait the extra week or two. no, really. I can. *cringes in agony* 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No harm intended, we're willing to wait but we have made our reservations in advance just in case, much like getting a table in a very busy but fine restaurant. He's not taking reservations. don't bother the devs. it will be released to the public very soon. Keep your pants on. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next step, I will kick people. Some of you are like the children who throw themselves on the floor in a public place and scream "Mom, but I want that now!". I wasn't intending that at all, all I was saying is that when the time comes that it is officially available to the general public we just wanted to be some of the first to get one, that was what I was saying, much like you get in line early to score good tickets to a Metallica (or other band, fill in) concert, for instance. If we have to wait we are more than willing to no matter how long it takes. I wasn't talking about getting it now at this instant, not by any means. Besides I think Fred would love it that since his product is in such huge demand that maybe placing an advance order would surely inspire him to know that there are fans of his work that are willing to wait as long as it takes for him to come out with the perfect product, and without the rush. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+eebuckeye Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I thought people were emailing Fred for the update if they had the existing Concerto. Wow... can't believe people are bothering him when he specifically said he would announce. I'm sure almost everyone would have sent him a message. If I were him I'd ignore the PMs or move to lower priority when announced officially. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Stephen Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 I'm on a lot of lists here. Is there a list I can get on for the release of this? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+batari Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Just a note: someone told me that they got an email from someone offering to sell them a Concerto. It wasn’t me: I am not emailing anyone but conducting this all through PM at this early stage. Also the order site will be hosted on square.site or atariage.com and nowhere else. edit: some clarification: it was a PM on another forum, not an email. edit2: Ok, I got some more clarification. The user got a spam PM on another forum about flash carts. I guess it’s nothing to be alarmed about but these days it’s best to have an abundance of caution as scammers are getting more sophisticated. 11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that I don't sell more Concertos than I can produce in a reasonable amount of time, I will be using an inventory-controlled site to sell them and will be making them available in small batches. An announcement on that will come later, after the developer carts are sold. Just to reiterate the process that Batari posted for those folks that somehow missed it, despite it being on the previous page. I've helpfully marked the key part of the statement in bold... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was HOPING and expecting that the very next post would be someone else asking to get no the "list" or how to order. It's just how it works here.

zezba9000 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I'm not actively doing homebrew but would like one of these for future homebrew. If there is a generic list we can get on that would be great as I have to many things to keep track of and would hate to miss out in the future. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They absolutely will not ever contain any information relevant to the truly stupid post you're about to share with the world, so just go ahead and spew whatever pseudothoughts are rattling around in your head all over the keyboard.
