No, I'm not.

And I'm not sure it would be a good idea to already pick the vacation days, as game development isn't exactly reliable. Games are often delayed for various reasons and released on a later date.

I'm not going to because I'm going to try to avoid rushing through everything this time around.

Instead of playing several huge numbers of hours in a short time span I'm going to try to stretch it out. That way by the time I approach being done with my first playthrough I'm either ready for another (if they haven't gone the King of All approach...again) or ready for mods/dlc

I'm in college still, so I doubt I'll be working during November. Will I take the day off of classes? Probably. Missing a day of notes is less important than losing money from not showing up to work.

Also, I'd avoid putting a thread title entirely in capital letters. I'm not sure if it's still being enforced, but there was a rule before about it when Skyrim's existence was nothing but speculation. It also doesn't help improve people's first impression of your thread. :P

I get 5 weeks of vacation a year plus 4 days of personal time each year. I'll likely have 2-day work-weeks all of November and December

Not work, because I've holidays from 22 Dec to 10 Jan. But having in mind that ME3 also releases on Holidays 2011, I think I'll spend them on my house ^^

Nah probably not. I'll still go to work if I have it.

Better question is: Who is not going to visit the forums when the game comes out? I can tell you now, it will be several weeks before I get back on here. I don't want any spoilers :P

Yep, will be having at least a week off when the release comes around, and i am planning on selling my girlfriend and daughter the day before. Not too convinced of the release date though. As much as i would love them to achieve the date i am fully aware of the delays games have these days, and the worst of it is, delays are not usually a week or even a month, but usually 4 - 5 months. Lets just hope Beth get it out and done by Novemeber 11, with little or no major bugs.

I only have two hours of school on a Friday from 10:30 until 13:10 so there's no need for me to.

Nope. Need to graduate and get a job first... And wait for any release delays, then a couple of months for them to iron out bugs.

I'm taking Thanksgiving Weekend off to play it, because if I ask off during the week to get the game, then I have to work a day on the weekend. And of course, if it doesn't get delayed.

Nope, where I work, we aren't allowed to take off any additional days in November or December.
Except, of course, for Thanksgiving and Christmas :)

The reason why I'm coming here is because I don't have a job right now. :P

If the game really does come out on November 11 then I wont need to take that day off, it's Veteran's Day and I already have it off.

I'll request the day off, I might actually have it off. I'll play Skyrim and then be ready to go to the nightclubs at night and then come home earily in the morning for some more skyrim (unless I'm at some girls house) then sleep. <---closet gamer

Nawh I can't. I won't be working but I'll be in a 3D school and missing a day can mean a lot ^^. I'll find plenty of time nonetheless ^^

I definitely will be.

Just as with New Vegas, I'll be a full and willing victim of Bethesda marketing over the coming months as the trailers, articles and podcasts get released. Then will be there at mid-night release!

I'll be drooling over the thoughts of a next-generation Construction Set and wondering how much of the functions will carry over.

It'll be good!

This! I made the mistake of taking a week off for Oblivion, and they game did not ship for like 2 or 3 months later!

Whenever it comes out I will be taking off Friday to play it. Assuming it will come out on a Tuesday. There is a possibility that I would take off the day it comes out but I doubt I will be able to just play for one day and then go back to work. I would not be able to anything but think of the game.

I am on a disability income so I do not work. (I'm a recluse to boot.) I have all the time in the world to play Skyrim on release. :celebration: (Sometimes too much time. *gets cabin fever*)
