As the title says

Craig tweeted 200 shipping next week on August 13.

Just wondering if that happened and if it didn't what happened?

Thanks!

Welcome to the forum! .... Wait *looks at profile* you aren't that new! You've been here for several months... Hi anyway!

[Dunny]

The usual thing, I expect - this or that didn't get there, they're still waiting for something, just got to wait for this other thing and then production will go really, really fast, all finished by october, just you wait.

it's not causing any delays

We're building them, that's what's been happening.

You're building my Pandora? *SQUEEEEEEE* etc. Really? You're really building them? For real this time? :-)

All joking aside, does this mean that you'll be shipping the second batch next week? Or is construction going slower now?

It's not going slower, it's just a pain to drive down a box of units every day to post, it's easier to do them in bigger batches, say, twice a week.

Also we're told to expect 500(!) boards in the next batch, so, wow, that will be a lot of work. Not sure we can manage 500 in a week but we shall see.

That's smashing news. Can these new nubs be produced quite quickly then?

Is this question based on the knowledge that the nub producer has found what went wrong?

Craig said they've increased (or is that decreased?) the tolerance in their tests, so they're probably junking more at the factory and passing along consistently better ones. They may not have been looking for a problem, just a solution; if extra testing is the solution and they don't care about why they need to do the extra testing, that's good enough for me.

[kuru]

Yeah, as long as filthy, rotten dead nubs don't touch our virgin pandora boards I'm fine an can remain sane.

Was that conso's comment or did I go through too much of Lovecraft's lately?

[Prometheus]

I'm pretty sure that ED mentioned that they were stress-testing them very ferociously now.

EDIT: Bah, ninja'd. That was meant to add to Stan's point.

[Caine]

A whopping 500 boards? Wow, that's splendid. Looks like you're gonna have a busy week Craig

Good news, we need more of that.

It may sound silly, but a quick twit or post each day just giving a one line status update would stop all of these threads from starting, even if the report was 'nothing today' atleast we knew.

I'd glad some are being built and hopefully the production remains consistent.
