Let me tell you this, the Swedish speaking people in Finland -Finlandssvenskar- aren't just one entity. In the south Borgå, Helsingfors, Esbo -Nyland- lives the "proper swedish speakers" as they like to refer themselves as. They consider themselves to be a tad bit "better" then the swedish speakers living on the westcoast -where I live-. They are the "elite" of the minority.

In western Finland (Pohjanmaa/Österbotten) -which is mainly an agricultural place- there are a lot of Finlandssvenskar but since they have the agricultural heritage they are not considered as "refined" as the city dwelling "ruling class" people in the south. Also there are TONS of different -some are really werid-*ss- Swedish dialects here. I could barely understand my girlfriend the first time we spoke to each other -and we're both supposed to be swedish speaking LOL!- Some dialects -like in Närpes/Närpiö- me and even other Swedish speakers FROM Finland have a really hard time understanding.

I could tell you a lot more but I guess I'm waaaay out of topic already

Last time they were a push-over anyhow. ))

I'm sure if you contact them by phone, or mail, you will get things
sorted in a jiffy... Probably even get the pre-order green-lighted.

Keep us posted on the contact with the store-service.

Well, it seems the order never went through, even though they sent me a date for delivery (I should have kept quiet!)

I had a mild panic brought about by release euphoria and beer.


...also I had just got unpleasant news that a package I had sent by post had been opened and all contents lost.

Well, I guess that pretty much makes this thread moot..
(Moderator: Feel free to close thread)

I would feel embarrassed for crying wolf so soon, but seeing it
was UBI-Soft at the helm for the release, I was pretty much
expecting the worst.
