Nope... It's over
It was almost within my grasp, then the owner of the GD-R informed me that I had been "out-bought" at practically the last minute... Someone simply PayPal'ed him a large amount straight from their credit card.
Ahwell... so I won't be the one ripping and releasing it... But the good news is, Belokk probably WILL be the one. He isn't who won the GD-R but from what I hear, the buyer is letting Belokk have it to do the ripping. They're also planning something shady along the lines of "make and sell CDR copies for $20 each" before releasing the game to the masses via suprnova.org and other such venues... so eventually we WILL get a rip, probably within a few weeks, if not sooner.
I had about half of what I needed in donations
and would've come up with the other half somehow, too. Ahwell, it's a bummer but all in all it's still good news. We're getting to play PA for real.
