IRC hasn't had any downtime, no.
[quote]EDIt: and one question .. Is cell shading used?[/quote] No. The art is sylized with thick borders, however it is not cel-shaded.
It'll be somewhere around 8 months from now till the beta, by current estimates, so the latter might work.
[quote]If you install the paypal plug in you can generate a 1 time virtual credit card which is tied to your paypal acct. You could then use that to pre-order the game. Stardock processes it as a credit card transaction but it really just goes to your paypal acct.[/quote] It still won't be charged until the beta, and unless paypal logs all the numbers so they're good permanently (highly doubtful), the transaction will fail when the time comes to charge it.
Sales has been alerted, the discrepancy should be resolved one way or another tomorrow.
That's exactly why, yep.
[quote]is it possible to add it to impulse somehow, so that I can see the purchase in there somewhere?[/quote] Preorders don't appear in the My Games page until something is available for you to download (beta, etc).
Tokens cost ~$7 per. So at $42 for the game vs $45, you're still getting a tiny bit of a discount.
