Transition from MC11 to MC12
« on: August 14, 2006, 06:50:23 pm »
We had a rough weekend.  A few posts and threads were surgically removed.

Today we made a few changes.

1.  The MC11 to MC12 upgrade price should now work.

2.  MC11.1.193 will work with an MC12 license.

3.  All future purchases of MC11.1 will actually deliver the user an MC12 license. 

This isn't ideal, but it's as close as we could get on a Monday.

I think we'll add another 10 or 15 users as beta testers tomorrow if we didn't break anything.

Any comments?  Any nominations for new testers?

Nomination:

lpr  Oops.  I meant EpF.
Ahh... lpr too.

Sorry you guys had a rough time of it.  Closed betas can be very helpful, but they come with their own set of problems.  Very glad to see comments #2 and #3 in your list.  I'm glad I waited to buy the copy for my friend until now!

As I said in the one deleted thread.  I think you guys deserve some slack on this.  It's Just Plain HardTM do do what you're attempting.  You've done really no worse than many other huge corporations that I've participated in Beta's with.... "Stuff" happens!

Oh... And if you decide to do a partial "reopen" at some point in the future... I think a "years registered" rather than "post count" would be a better plan.  I'm sure you thought of that now though!   ::)

Think I missed most the melay, been away for the weekend,
sorry to hear you had problems....

I'd vote for ZxSix, he's been quite good on the bug reports in
the past that I've watched.

5 Days till I leave for Africa =)

Thanks for the suggestions.  We've just added 19 more people.  No longer such an exclusive club.  I guess we can let the bouncers go.

Thanks Jim.

One question...

Just to make Absolutely Sure before I drop my $40.  I'm going to buy MC for that friend today.  The key she receives if I click "BUY" as of right this minute will be a MC12 key but will also work with MC 11.1.193, correct?
