How long does it take

Ok I know that sc wants an awesome update but we needa see sneak peeks already!!

Might as well ask how long it took to make your pointless spam thread.

I feel rather sucked in by the misleading title, thinking i was going to be estimating a timescale of an upgrade for some lower levelled player, who would be eternally grateful.

Instead, i just find this, one of 4 different 'when is update' whining threads already today.

Mods have been awfully quiet lately, maybe theyre all closeted with SC getting update info.

I see it as a win-win. Either they are, so update will be soon; or theyll hurry up and close this.

I don't crave updates. Apart from getting rid of the annoying Christmas jingle I like it the way it is. Us old people don't like change.
The traffic lights near my house changed recently. I intend to write to the council to ask them to change it back.

this time last year we where all waiting for the BIG update that seemed to take forever. finally came in april. i wouldnt hold your breath OP. it might not be for sometime. i for one dont need an update to kee me interested. i have 2 upgrades to go and im maxxed on defences. so i have walls to keep me hooked for the next year.

I'd love an update. Only zaps to go now, how dull.
But to be constantly asking when it is, massive waste of time. As in more so than any other forum activity.

On another note, near end of Jan '13 and '14, there were game-changing updates.
