Finn 7 five 11 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Didn't they add the two important words or so ? Not only did they use these words to confuse us but to make clear that it'll be a pretty damn unexpected moment. So don't rely to much on this "few weeks" statement. It's like saying 1 week 2 days 5 hours 30 minutes 20 seconds or so, it's just nothing precise! Well no sh*t, you made a topic about the most obvious of things just to point it out to us. Thanks. Haha K^2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Druffmaul Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 There is literally no difference in meaning between "a few weeks" and "a few weeks or so". They are equally ambiguous. This gets my vote for Most Useless Topic Ever. OP, would you kindly punch yourself in the face a few times or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Above Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 We just got 11 screenshots a few weeks ago after months of silence so do we really have to question whether a few weeks is two or five? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Luke Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Who cares? If it was months, surely they would of said "few months or so". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "or so" part gives them the option of extending it past what most would consider a few. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyIsBack Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Who cares? If it was months, surely they would of said "few months or so". EXACTLY! they said "weeks" not "months" We still have more than 3 weeks left in Sept, there will be some info/screens this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeks can turn into months, for example.. 4 weeks is a few and it can also be a month.. catch my drift? Again the "or so" part could mean months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again the "or so" part could mean months i dont know man, "we will only put out info that is 100% correct" i dont think they would have said "weeks" opposed to "months". If they thought it would take months than they would have said "months". I put my word on it that we get something this month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since there is no firm definition of what "a few" means, adding "or so" doesn't change the meaning whatsoever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Choco Taco Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Since there is no firm definition of what "a few" means, adding "or so" doesn't change the meaning whatsoever. Well, most normal people consider a few to be from 3 to 5. The "or so" implies that they're not certain and allows them to go past 3-5 without looking like liars.
