Default Is 1.90 available for download

Has MM been uploaded so we can download it from the main website - waiting patiently but getting annoyed might send em an email to boost things along.

no, Version 1.90 has only been out for beta testers a few hours ago and is now being tested.

It won't be available to everyone for a while.

I don't think you can at this point. The application period to become a SE4 beta tester has long been passed. (remember, this game is old... )

but you can apply to become a SE5 beta tester, when the time comes (whenever that will be...)

I would have thought that the company would simply put the link and file up for download by Users to try it out and give feedback - i know a lot of other games do - with a disclaimer that they arent sure of its stability and the user downloads at their own risk.

It would probably generate more interest in the game and avoid us waiting 6 months for each update ?

Oh well sh!t happens i guess.

You are misunderstanding the process, but that's not surprising. We all originally signed onto a 'non-disclosure' agreement to become testers just like you'd expect. But then the 'leader' of the beta test process started posting these change logs in the public forum! This was a bit of a surprise since we'd signed non-disclosure agreements. Eventually, as you see happening now, even ordinary testers took it upon themselves to post these change logs since the 'official' representative of the company had been doing so all along.

So don't be tricked by the public notices. This is still a closed beta process -- I think? And there won't be any publicly downloadable patch until the main page here and at MM's own site announces it.
