    We're nearly done with everything and we (realistically) expect to be launching the new Alice server in the next 3 days.

    It's been 3 weeks and according to that logic, it will take 3x the stated time, the safest guess will be that Alice will launch in 9 days ._.

    Ps.
    3x the time has a 3 in it; sk is saying that alice will launch in 3 days; half life 3 has 3 in it, HALF-LIFE 3 CONFIRMED! Alice will launch after HL3 CONFIRMED!

    Right now the mod list seems to be kinda secret, it will probably be released a few days after the launch.

    The modpack's been essentially done for 3 weeks now. Regen's been done for 3 weeks. The last 3 weeks have been devoted to finishing up the server code.

    The only real major task right now is to figure out how to combine the spawn world into the pregen world.

    Yet most players will spare it but a cursory glance and, judging by the previous experiences, will go "Wow thats unnecessarily detailed and/or cluttered"

    Dont kill me no offense please

    Actually I think this one is rather simplistic, buildings are detailed but for the most part spawn is compact.

    Why did it take more then an hour then?

    It seems you have a quite different definition of simplistic :p

    Because sk didn't oversee its building I think he logged on maybe 3 times total, and we didn't use a the wolf standard of building.

    A compact, simplistic spawn? That's unpossible on SKCraft.

    Your only clue is "We're making a left turn!"
