    The timing is about right ;)

    That would be the greatest thing to do.
    Surprise on Saturday. Play the game on talk like a pirate day.

    It would be great, but it's not all that likely now is it.

    but something is cooking up

    Since we haven't gotten a new "I Wonder What Happens" video, I'm going to assume they're just going to announce the release date.

    Don't forget that the "I Wonder What Happens" videos are not made by Telltale, they're made by Majus who is a fan of MI just like us. Though Telltale published his videos, I don't even know if Majus gets insider info from Telltale about the games, so he probably knows the release dates only when we all know them.

    Yeah, the "I wonder what happen" vids might have stopped for all we know. There's no guarantee one will be made.

    But I'm pretty sure there's a guarantee EP3 is coming out in ITLAPD.

    Could you provide a link to this "guarantee", or are TTG too "unprofessional and lazy" to post it?

    From MajusArts' Twitter (the maker of "I Wonder What Happens...")
    Aye, new Flashmovie will be out soon this week! And don't forget: International Talk Like A Pirate Day on Saturday, arrr! | about 5 hours ago

    Try to guess, what this might mean... :cool: :eek:

    You're right! They are too lazy to post it!

    A flat answer would be easier than a guessing game countdown!

    But hey, if they do release Ep3 on pirate day, then all my comments are rendered void, as long as they do it for the rest of the episodes.

    This countdown was exactly what I was hoping for. Shame it didn't exist for eps 1 and 2.

    Hi all,

    The news on the chapter 3 date is coming very soon. The team's working away on this now. While this won't be the Talk Like a Pirate Day "something" that Dave mentioned in the blog, we expect that the game will release fairly soon after that day.

    And the next I Wonder What Happens video will get posted this week, before Talk Like a Pirate Day.

    For Saturday, we're excited that we're in the midst of a big epic pirate saga on this annual swashbucking celebration time. We hope all will be in the spirit of pirateyness this weekend.

    - Joel, Telltale

    Is it ironic or fortuitous that Talk Like a Pirate Day falls on Rosh Hashana (Jewish New Year) this year?

    Might I say that the new Majus video is awesome. He needs to visit NorCal so I can give him a hug.

    Thank you very much! :D

    As cool as ITLAPD is/will be, I can never bring myself to talk the talk. However, I have no qualms about singing about it, so I will be brushing up on the lyrics to 'I am a Pirate King', 'The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything', and 'The Last Saskatchewan Pirate'.

    Hooray! Another Majus video!

    Dang, I can't really use (a skeleton arm with) that. I've bought the whole TMI season already. It's like the surprise is "You get to market Telltale Games to your friends! How cool is that?!" [/Stan]

    No, im sure we get something cool too. Im excited to see what it is though.

    Hey now, I like marketing Telltale's games to my friends. At least the ones I'd know would be interested in a) free stuff! and b) awesome adventure games.

    ...Hm. Looks as if Telltale's powered up the mind control device again. :p Better go get my tinfoil hat.
