i know the most likely answer to my question but i'll answer it anyway. are the results for gom06 coming out soon? it was my first one so im waiting to see if i came last (i think im a good contender :P). because if the load is so heavy then should we not expect to see the results for gom07 for another 2 months?

i dont want to be taken the wrong way, i understand theres a very heavy load im just wanting to know an aproximate timeframe. im just wondering like many others.

'they'll get it out when they get it out'

that's all I can tell you, other than they said that once this one is out, it won't take as long to get the others out.

It would be nice to have a bit more info. Personally I'm not that bothered because that one was my 3rd GOTM so I know the procedure etc. [1], but I can imagine if this had happened on my first GOTM, the wait etc. would've been incredibly frustrating - and there's going to be quite a few people for whom this (or GOTM7) is their first GOTM. So, while I'm sure the staff are doing all they can, it would be good to have some kind of estimate of how much longer it'll be (and for GOTM7), and it'd be nice to know what is causing the hold-up (I'm intrigued as I'd have imagined given the automated uploading software, compiling the results ought to be fairly automatic too? The only think I can think of is: Has there been some need to verify or investigate some particular submissions and that's taking a while?)

[1] I'm far more impatiently waiting to see the preview of GOTM9 to see what map-type and other goodies are in store for us :LOL:

Yes. GOTM7 was my first game. Of course I am curious how close to the bottom I got, but I am even more curious what is the GOTM9 going to look like...
 
hm..maybe it is just cause I missed them both, so I don't care as much :p

obviously, I understand being curious about it...I was very curious about GOTM 3 and 4. I just see no reason to ask again when they've told us nothing other than what I stated, and when they do so much for us already.
 
There is no possibility to get upset regarding the GOTM managers who do all this in free time.
On the other hand, yes I think it's too long meanwhile to not get frustrated, especially for first time participants; but I assume the GOTM helpers know this and do their best.

Nevertheless, a definite timeline, even if quite long away, would help IMHO.

I agree.

Just to see I took a view of civ3 forum, and the situation is the same.

Too much workload for the staff, I suppose, with 5 GotM (soon 6), the SGotMs, probably a Warlords beta-testing and so on.

Again, a timeline would help, or we'll soon see
"Bin Laden surprise winner of GotM 7" :p (and this time the leader fits)
