OK, so today is February 9, 1999 AD. The game is supposed to sell tommorow at EB. I can't wait. Now, anybody and everybody post here about where and when they grabbed SMAC.

Sob... It's not in Sweden Until February 18...
Oh, And I'm wondering about date formats (This has nothing to do with this thread, but anyway). As Far as I know, there seem to be three versions. February Nine can be written:
The American: 2.9.99
The European: 9/2 99
The Swedish: 99.02.09
Am I wrong? Are there more? (forget about the slashes and points, I know that varies. I'm worried about the order of the numbers.)

I pre-ordered from EA, and today I received an e-mail from them saying that they shipped it by UPS today, so in 5-7 business days I will probably be disappearing for a while. "One more red nightmare!" as Robert Fripp might say. Thanks, Firaxis; I have the feeling that this could be the start of a beautiful relationship.
