Check in to see if the new mystery program has been published or at least an update there of..... soon to be a mystery no more!!

I was doing the same   but I haven’t seen anything yet

Same here, still waiting

Sorry, guys.  I was put in the very difficult position yesterday of realizing that it was not a good idea to release it yet.  I was trying to find ways to release it that could work, but in the end I concluded that the best way to release it is to wait until I am more comfortable with releasing it.  No matter how much I need to fund the business, I just can't bring myself to release something that is this important without having a better understanding of how it works, how well it works and so forth.  I don't think that would be fair to any of us really, given the potential this program has, so I've decided not to release it until it has been through more testing, and if testing reveals it is necessary, more development.  I thought I would be able to get all this done before the 20th, but it did not happen that way, and things just didn't work out favorably for this release after that.  I will be releasing this program when I better understand how it works, how well it works, etc..  This isn't your average program, and it wasn't scheduled for release this year at all.

So I'm looking for something I can build as a Focus Fire, and I have it narrowed down to a short list of 8 options.  If you have any suggestions, feel free.  I'm going to try to get the decision made today and have the program built by the day after tomorrow.
