A word of advice to CCP - after over 30 years with computers - take the estimated patch time, round it up, then double it - finally add 50% for unexpected stuff.

Result: Each time the server will be up before estimated time - ppl be happy - and everyone thing you rock bcause youre way faster then they tought - and ppl wont whine bcause youre over time.

Win-win.

Maybe that is exactly what they did?

They really should estimate their time, double it, then add 50%. And with that time they got then, they should double that time, add 50%.

That way people would be happy with that the server is up early.

Yeah, but maybe that is what they did.

Thay should really do what you say above and then double it, add 50%...

Awwwh, seriously. Estimate a time based on what you can tell and then correct that. That is the most easy and effective way to do it.

It's just like pushing the clock 10 minutes forward because you are always late :S

I'm probably being dumb (v likely)... but how exactly should I be downloading the latest patch?

On log-in my client just tells me 'incompatable (version)'... so where's my wizard? Or a link? Or any help whatsoever?!

On the EveOnline patches page...

(http://www.eveonline.com/patches/patches.asp?s=&test=&system=win)

... it asks you to select your client version, but claims that the lastest is v.127178.

It isn't: my client is v.127381

Any help, illumination, clarification or plain sympathy would be really welcome!
