You must live either in New Zealand or Australia in order to get Paranormal this early.
I live in Nz and we are definitely not getting it until tomorrow. Expansions we do get on the release date, but stuff packs we always have to add one more day before we get it We gotta wait even a little longer than others
I wonder why Gordy was saying 10 more minutes then. Unless what Gordy had posted was a typo and they really meant to say something else instead.
ETA: Another possibility, Gordy might have a VPN net setup which overrides all time zones.
You cannot override a worldwide release.
I feel this discussion happens eeeevery single release lol.
EPs: midnight release
GPs/SPs: no midnight release, always 10 am PT (if I remember correctly) for *everyone*, regardless of what time zone you live in. Whatever time it's where you are when it's 10 am in California, that's when it releases for you & everyone else. A VPN cannot let you download something that hasn't been released anywhere yet.
Okay, now that I got that out of my system (like I do pretty much every time lol), I am kinda looking forward to this pack. Right now my life is almost evenly divided between my FT job and my studies. But tonight I'm going to take a small break and play with this pack
Australia had our national Australia Day holiday today. It was 38 degrees celcius (100 F). I was so hoping I could spend the time I wasn’t at the beach inside, in air con, playing spooky sims!
so my laptop charger still hasn't arrived, even though it was supposed to yesterday (thanks Hermes, not) which means I probably won't be playing the game when it comes out since there's still no sign of it.

I'm so jealous. Freezing my 🐸🐸🐸🐸 off here in the UK!
I wish this was a midnight release. But not long now!
I'm so excited, I can't remember the last time I was this hyped for a Sims pack. (And I'm extra hyped because I won a code giveaway for it, yaaay!). I was supposed to attend a reading group tonight but I'm skipping it so I can play instead. XD
I assume the release for eastern standard time is 1:00 pm? I guess I will work on leveling my Doctor/Spellcaster more to get him ready for his new career as a Paranormal Investigator

Me too... alas for the snow! Luckily I'm 'working' from home today so I can sit right next to the radiator.
@dsef that's so sad, and very annoying. Hope it arrives soon!
@elanorbreton I hope it arrives soon too. I was looking forward to it arriving yesterday to keep my mind off the kidney infection that I've currently had for the past 2 days.
*Runs in with toaster cozy on head, table doily draped over shoulders and giant holiday snow globe in hand. Sits on pillow in front of coffee table and lights incense. Gazes into snow globe dramatically and waves hands around.*
I see ghosts in our near fuuutuuuure! Soooooon the restless dead will come and aaaaalllll will be revealed! Riiiiiise my spirits! Riiiiiiiiiiise!!!
I only have one thing to say to this... why wear a rectangular toaster cozy on a round head when a teapot cozy would be so much better?
Ah! I see you are very wise in the ways of Mediumship! The spirits favor you. Clearly you should join me at the seance table. All are welcome to partake in the summons.
Join hands everyone and look into the snow gl--- ahh, I mean crystal ball. Let us focus on the portents we see within! *Chants unintelligibly*
What is this? I see... A clock! Time is of the essence! All things hang in the balance, for the haunted hour when the Veil shall part and the spirits join the living! They wait, there! In the shadows!! *Points dramatically at wall stain.*
@LiELF please can you just stop looking into that snow gl... crystal ball? I believe you are responsible for all the snow currently in the UK. Do something useful and knit me some socks please.
Gather round and hold hands and command all the spirits to knit us socks.
