[QUOTE="Worf, post: 259215, member: 1047"] That is a problem - in fact it's a bit of a disease in the software development world - we love the idea of releasing on Friday, but we always forget releasing on Friday generally is a good way to work the weekend as customers find issues with the release that were not caught in QA. (At least, in places where the software release is internal, and the customers are also internal, which usually results in a weekend recall). Far better to release it on a Monday morning which then the whole staff can be prepped to handle the influx of problems (as well as warning the staff that if they need to do something, do it before the weekend is over!). And yes, FarSight will suffer for it because it's a whole weekend where the app is broken and they'll get nothing but a flood of 1-star ratings and reviews that will sit around and be sticky by the time Monday rolls around. Hell, even on iOS there are problems (though not as severe as not starting). The only hope for iOS ratings is if those tables are unpopular enough that no one else notices. [/QUOTE]
