What we did for SigmaOS was to break our timeline into three timestamps a month before your launch, a week before your launch, and the day of your launch.

Now you can imagine my surprise when the day came, and we kept getting upvotes. Ok, maybe not nervous, but more like freaking out that nobody would care about our launch, and we would barely even get 100 upvotes.
