How do you judge 2006 releases

Here's something I've been pondering.

When the clock strikes midnight, how will the first releases of 2006 be calculated? For example Australia releases uploaded at 00:01 on January 1, 2006 would be our Saturday, December 31, 2005

Should this go by the CSDB time zone as per entry creation time/date or per the time zone of the creator's country?

It's not a big deal I know, but I understand there is a bit of a race for the first demos of the year. How should they be calculated? Even NTSC demos come from different time zones.

My opinion is it should go by the time zone of the demo creator. Thoughts?

I prefer timeless productions, and i give a shit about them being first releases or not.

We will never have first releases.Most of the the releases
are self-productions.But we will always have new sid-musics and new demos.
Look at these "Software Manager Prv".I got this Prv. from
Markus Schneider (Diflex-Ex Level99),but as no software firm wanted to pay for it,all the coders stopped.He just wanted to give this game an nice music,but it was too late.

No money - No Production

But there will still be new games, and some of them will even have good quality.

First releases and crackers responsibility.

There will be new games, some that need to be paid for and others that won't. A cracker shouldn't care. As long as there is something to crack.

Where the game is distributed, protected or not, quality or non-quality - release - is totally up to the game development crew. As far as crackers obtaining games, public domain is of course easier, but so is ordering a game, especially for grown adults ;) It's not like we're kids with school money only now. ;)

Personally I hope there will be MORE games "sold" commercially (like what Protovision does) and ALL games containing cracking protection.

Not many releases to judge yet... Still, maybe the pace will pick up a bit.
