Don't see what's so special about the date. Three 11s, big whoop. What's so great about 11s.

It only happens every 100 years...

You wouldn't understand (without the help of these kind, sympathetic people).

Yeah. How often do you get to announce something for such an awesome date. ^^

They were ready to do it, and it's pretty epic.

^This Todd thought it was cool so he was like thats the day.

Maybe they look at it as 6 1's instead of 3 11's

It looks cool.
:foodndrink:

Why do you care if they like 11 so much?

i.e. you have no reason.

It's Veteran's Day so everyone (in the US) gets a WHOLE DAY off on the release date to play all. day. long.

The troll

Don't feed it

because if they miss 11.11.11, skyrim can only be released at 12.12.12, because the planets align to a new elders scroll era

Because 11-11-11 transitions into the word Skyrim so majestically.

How. What does 11 have to do with Skyrim.

Heh, I found this floating around.

11:11 is said to be a pre-encoded trigger placed in our cellular memory banks prior to our descent/incarnation into matter. when activated, it will signify that our time of completion and ascension is near. A shift will occur. Our consciousness will raise in frequency along with our bodies. We will be ascending into the next dimension of time/space or space/time. It can be seen as the evolution of consciousness and the earth herself. One will know when this particular gateway to awareness and higher vibration is open for them because they will continually see the numbers 11:11 (or 1111) in there every day lives and it will be a continuous ocurrence. The activation of other gateways can be symbolized by other digits.

...they want 11 year olds to play?

...11 times 11 is 121, thats todd's fav nmber?

...11+11+11= 33 33+33=66 66x10=660 660+6= 666, bethesda is saten!!!

...its mermorial day?

...cuz' just cuz'

i like the most conveluted one :teehee:

1. It's a gimmick date that's easy to promote/remember.
2. It's supposedly around a timeframe where they are more sure they'll have the game at gold status without by chance missing the release date.

That's it.

this :rofl:

Easy to remember, Looks nice in dramatic font, close to the holidays. Honestly it's an epic date for an epic game.

After 11.11.11, 12.12.12 will be the last of such "grand dates" in our lifetime.

You can ask yourself why humans are particulary interested in something artifical to begin with. It's not like 11.11.11 is universally a grand day, it could be 242-23563-12443 looking from an outwordly view-point.

When I looked this thread had 111 views! Wicked! :celebrate:

It's easy to remember.

Why are you so against the number eleven anyway?

It's something that only the elves can truly understand. :biggrin:

Why don't they release it on 9-10-11 or 11-1-11 or even 10-27-11

11 has nothing to do with Skyrim and does not matter
