Hello! So, am I right in thinking that it's either this coming Wednesday, or the following Wednesday, that we are to get the long-awaited Battle Sprites? Given that OOO have (apparently) said that we're getting them in the middle of the year and, June being the 6th month out of a 12 month year, marks the "middle" of the year, and the trend of updates happening on a Wednesday seems to suggest that it'll be either this Wednesday or the next Wednesday, or else it shall be past the "middle of the year". So, what is the current verdict? Am I right in concluding this? Have I just pulled this from the nonsense-hat? What are your thoughts, fellow knights? Also, Wednesday.
Am I right in thinking... (BS)

This, this is true. I suppose the only reason I've asked, myself, is because I've seen bits of chatterings about it 'ere 'n there, so I wanted to see what others have said. Hopefully it IS sooner rather than later, because we've waited hell long enough now! +1 hope that it's actually worth it!

Not this wednesday, because the test server hasn't opened yet. Maybe next week, but I'm hoping they do more than one round of testing so I would say around the end of the month or maybe into July. No one said they had to stick to vague due dates they planted six months ago, so I would actually like it if it was delayed a bit at this point.

To be honest, while I'd be a dirty liar if I said that I didn't want BS's RIGHT NOW, I do agree that, I'd much rather wait a liiittle bit longer, if it meant they were gonna test 'em properly, resultin' in us getting a much more polished feature, than a rushed job. Still, this is true that they don't always have to stick to due dates... tantalizingly.

C-V, To be honest, I am kinda worried about that... what if, after all this hype for them, all this excitement, they turn out to be terrible? Chances are they won't, and that OOO will do an amazing job, but the worry is there that they'll be a "use once then never again" kinda thing O.o and Grass, I chortled. XD
The short answer is that we have no way of knowing until it is formally announced--anything else is just guessing.
[EDIT: If you really wanted to get into a guessing game, I would say that certain things point to it being sooner rather than later, but again, there is no way to definitively know until we get official word.]
