Summer Warm Up

I'm still aiming for the release of Item Maker + KoC in the july patch...

Releasing KoC in mid-August is not smart, because a lot of people don't have that much time to play then (start of new schoolyear) compared to mid-july...

Exactly, it's a hook for the next year. It's assumed that people will play all summer, but once school starts back up, a lot of kids might neglect the game because of their studies. Releasing something as major as Cygnus almost guarantees that a lot of people who might not otherwise play... will.
