I'm sure someone would've sent you a CD via priority mail that would be there in 4-6 weeks. Which still would've been quicker than dialup.

Re: All Worlds Maintenance and Update File Size(Mar. 10)
Oh something to do while playing Brawl.

File size is pretty big, is there a surprise hidden in this box of cereal?



I had a signature, but I got lazy and stopped caring.

Always is. Looks like I can have this working while I'm at work, and have it ready to play as soon as I get home. Score.

Re: All Worlds Maintenance and Update File Size(Mar. 10)
At the expense of sounding ignorant, why does the PS2 take so much longer to download a smaller file at the same speed as either PC or 360?

Well, now people can stop asking when the update is coming, at least.

The download time is almost certainly wrong. They probably just forgot to change it after copy-pasting from a template or previous download or something. It's not the first time that's happened with these.

There is no rush. If you're not willing to take your time, don't be surprised when no one wants to give you much of theirs.

Re: All Worlds Maintenance and Update File Size(Mar. 10)
Let me be the first to say, for the sake of others across the globe (and just to get it out of the way): Damn you SE for doing maintenance during someone's prime time! ><

Next time, please schedule maintenance and updates for times when nobody will be playing so as to avoid interruptions for everyone. Thank you, that is all.
