Marioface5: It's been a month now. Is this still happening anytime soon?

JudasIscariot: Nope. Hence "few weeks".
A "few weeks" should mean less than a month. If it's been a month and it's still not happening anytime soon, I don't know how that could possibly be considered "a few weeks".

Relevant.

JMich: Relevant.
The only source for this is the author's personal preferences. And to be fair, my source for saying that a few weeks means three weeks is my personal preference. Neither of those definitions are right. By dictionary definitions, "few" doesn't even have a set limit. It just means "not many". And "many" just means "a large but indefinite number". It's one of those things that people could (and, I'm sure, have!) argue about all day and get nowhere.

EDIT: To be clear, this really isn't a big deal to me, I just didn't appreciate Judas saying "Hence 'few weeks'" like my question was stupid.

My definitions for few and several still come from HoMM. Few = 1-4, several = 5-9

We know what GoG's definition of soon is. Go ahead and extrapolate what "a few weeks" could mean ;p

Yes, but not Army Men: RTS :P

In any case since you guessed the closest possible game and you guessed first you win a prize :D

I'll take it as a consolation prize for not releasing Army Men RTS :p Thank you Judas! :D

What we can determine from here though is that GOG "few" goes at least up to 8 :)

So... in case nobody asked already... when's the next hint coming now that Army Men is out? :)

Prediction: It will be a hint that could be construed as referring to a major game series, but will instead be related to a much smaller/less well know title. It takes a few increments of time to think it up.

:D

Not familiar with that, but it could be the DLC for Borderlands 2 also. :)
