Dear playerbase, I took liberty to inform you of some things I see differently here. It's not a quarrel with CJ, he enjoyed this post possibly more than I do.

When CJ posted on 22 that we will release on June 1st, things were pretty different than they eventually turned out to be. First of all dear playerbase, Cunning Accountants, Chartered Banks and Preffered Banks concept are not something that was ever going to happen at Plantation version 1.0. Of course, this system is much better but we would avoid it, just to save time. We would use the same feature we used for Credits Exchange which was ready and as a result, by far faster to integrate. This is why CJ wrote:

This was not one day! The credits similar system would be one day!

Secondly, the bidding system for acres is something that came up and is NOT coded YET. Somehow CJ thinks we will finish and test it today. Of course, the way we schedule it at the first place, had issues and we needed to correct them. This is why you estimate more days though, in order to deal with unexpected issues like this one. When you "s**k" your "unexpected issues extra time" for "additional functionality in the payments system" then such issues blow it up.

What's even worse are things you are not aware of. Such as:
-Events System was never to make it to version 1.0. This is as new to me like it is to you.
-We can't unlock tobacco,rum,cotton ports at June 2. Forget it! It's impossible! First week of June at the very least.
-We CAN'T UNLOCK all ports within the first week! It's not going to happen. For multiple reasons. These will come at the tweaking update that will follow plantations. Whenever this comes.

Yes dear playerbase, CJ is being utopian in his predictions and demands - as always.

Things look grim for me. Yes, we can have plantations out at June 1, without events system. We could finalize it at the first week. THEN work on differencing plantations for tobacco,rum and cotton, based on your feedback too.

When we are done with these, I want to work on the Flagship, as we need to create the platform where we will start building ship specialties and a more interesting path for pirates. The resource ports can wait till the end of June; there are plenty of resources in port warehouses still.

So, my schedule is at best:
Today: Work on Acres Rental System/Test Acres Rental system.
Tomorrow: Work on workers system; There is a lot of testing needed there.
31: More testing
1: More testing
Late 1: Release
2-7: Work/Test on Events System
8: Release Events system
8-13: Work/Test Plantations different system
14: Unlock/Release Tobacco,Cotton,Rum ports.
14:Work on Flagship
