Just tweeted Elon... Wishing hopefully...

Sucks to be us.

Elon was planning to tweet the news just as the rocket launched, but since it's an abort, he won't tell us until at least tomorrow

 

[TEG]

The rocket was supposed to carry all the space cheese for first day depositors...

@TEG: FYI. Loved your 'Spanky' GIF and stole it to use in the investor's section.

It's 11:24 pm central as I write this and well still nothing.

The payload is really pallets of our deposit money and he is fleeing the galaxy.

I think Elon is counting the day as Sunday until he goes to sleep. Anyone know how late he stays up?

 

[jsrawa]

Well I think the SpaceX abort really messed things up. It also doesn't help that it seems like he is a procrastinator when it comes to these things and writes them last minute.

Okay... Let's get back to watching GLOW on Netflix...

I give. I woke up so happy to learn something about my new car, and a going to bed with the sad, salt of disappointment. Hopefully as soon as I turn off the computer you all will get something from Elon.

and what good would earth money be when he's out on intergalactic space, since them aliens use universal currency (i think).

Right, I just hopped back and saw it was JonG, not you. Like I said, I'm easy like that.

So in that case, what are you referring to with "answering your question" vs clicking a button? Same concept still applies, wasn't worth adding a reply if it's not relevant to the thread.

You said...

Thus far, all previous expectations of development and rollout of past models have been shattered - notably that the production date has moved sooner, not later - so relying on past events like "they always F this up" is a bit naive.

It doesn't say what you think it says. Sounds like what you meant to say was..

Unlike all previous models, model 3 dates have moved sooner not later..

Either way, I think he's missed this deadline. At best it's going to be a tweet saying another date when something vague will be said.

 

[DGDanforth]

Great posts guys! Also, still waiting ...

Don't worry, that's just what I felt last night. Now it's Monday morning over here, and still no news. I'm sure it will be the same for you

From another site:

Elon is trying to post updates, but is having problems getting past the "I am not a robot" filter ...

Aye and aye. Confusing wording. Instead of "...rollout of past models...", should've used "from". Hard for anyone familiar with Tesla to believe that they've "shattered" any previous production time targets, though. Model 3 sure looks to be an exception to that rule.

And yeah... it's sure looking like they missed it for today. Still 2 hours to go here in Tesla HQ time, but I wouldn't expect to see anything awesome this late at night.
