Lol, biweekly in the UK means twice a week... that would be 'fortnightly' over here ^_^

 

[WarHamster40K]

Anyone know if it's a permanent change, or if it's just a post-Desert Bus recovery?

Also, the bi-weekly comments at the end earn a thumbs-up. n_n b

 

[zombie711]

no why go bi?

 

[shirin238]

Awh, poor Graham, well there are plenty of site on the internet for that ;]

Hey, Eternal Sonata wasn't that bad >_>

I was going to mention this myself, however what I will mention is why did it take to COMMENT 24 before anyone noticed bi-weekly means twice a week - also thats everywhere where people speak english, not just the UK.

BIWEEKLY?! Are you kidding me?! Here I thought that signing up for the Publisher's Club would bring ENN back. Does this mean I need to purchase a second subscription to bring ENN back to weekly?

I am so disappointed with the biweekly schedule. ENN and ZP are the high points of the week, with Escape to the Movies, The Big Picture, and Extra Credits as ancillary points of the week.

I'm a sad panda.

I missed ENN last week hoping it would be available. Good to know the show is still here. Now to get back on the Desert Bus.

 

[Don Reba]

I also go on the offensive when having to explain a missed appointment.

 

[bojac6]

I'm still a little sad that ENN is going bi-weekly, but whatever...

Good episode, though.

Same, then again, they have their work cut out for them right now with desert bus, so maybe when thats over it will be, err, uni-weekly?

I believe the word you're looking for is "hetero-weekly."

 

[SantoUno]

Another short ENN .

Still funny though, haven't seen Jeremy in so long!

Also, "You don't need 1,031 cars in your stupid game".

Priceless.

I believe they recently said that they enjoyed the game itself, but the cutscenes were just HORRIBLE. (Which is why it was their first Unskippable.)

Even though I have no idea how much work goes into this site(Thank You)....


BOOOO!!!! Everything going bi-weekly sucks. I'll adapt by only coming to this site every other Monday. Previously I visited your site daily. I'm only one user so that should not have any affect on advertising revenues.

biweekly (not comparable)

1. Occurring once every two weeks.
2. (chiefly British) Occurring twice a week (but see the Usage notes).

Confusingly, I am under the belief that Canada goes by British English. Perhaps I am wrong on this count. In any case, if it is the two weeks to take a break for Desert Bus, then why not just say they're taking a week break? This confuses me greatly.

Also, cars are nice, how many tracks? It's all good and well having a 1000+ cars but only 4 tracks [sic] to race them on is not a success formula.

Not that it really matters, I don't like GT anyway.

Tetris, on the other hand, is like CRACK.

Business-related terms are often borrowed across the border. Canadians also measure their weight in pounds and height in feet, but most other things in grams and meters.

I want to point out that in the U.S. we use the term bi-weekly to mean once every two weeks. I wasn't aware there was a difference in other countries, but I agree that fortnightly would be less confusing.

 

[APSunder]

Biweekly refers to once every two weeks in Escapist terms. Doomsday Arcade used the term, Doraleous and Associates used the term, and also, Graham said "You're biweekly...so that means *every two weeks* you..."

To be fair, I think I was ninja'd - I just wasn't going to give them the satisfaction of the notification with an edit
