Good question, I really don't know. You may want to contact support atta stardock dot com or browse through the comments on that thread. I looked through the first 5 pages and didn't spot any official word.

Simsun and others:
I should also say, that the coupons to Demigod users are really just the start of Stardock goodies. Without giving away too much, we are talking to publishers about doing specials for Demigod players on Impulse. I.e. early adopters of Demigod will get various coupons off of anything on Impulse as well but I can't be specific yet because we only started talking to publishers on Friday (We already have 1 BIG publisher lined up).
My opinion is that Stardock's reputation in the industry absolutely must be something people can trust in. Therefore, we MUST make up the early launch issues with Demigod up to our customers.
On a different note, for the first time since launch, I the team here at Stardock is feeling mighty good.
I don't know enough on IT to really explain what has been done behind the scenes. Does anyone here work in IT and want to take a stab at explaining what is involved in creating an international proxy server system -- from scratch -- that works without having to change 1 line of code in the game client in a period of 14 days?
It's about the topic, but doesn't directly answer your question. I'd still suggest contacting support for the official word.
