    Skirvir
    I'm referring to an act of violence the day of the new games release (full 24hr cycle), seeing as how its a big name, that likely means from April 29th 12am - 11:59pm.

    InfernalMachine has explained this as I intended when I wrote up the question. If some act of violence occurs within that day, specific to GTA IV, not previous games.

    I'm not saying 'chaos' necessarily, just anything, somebody stabs or starts a fight with another in line waiting for the game, or robs someone who did buy it, or god forbid someone actually gets killed the day of release.

    I can't predict it but I felt and still feel pretty strongly that somewhere this game will be blamed for some violent act the day of release. Note, this could also include somebody foreseeing that the game results in something (harm, death etc) in the future, ie speculation.

    The point of this question was to raise awareness at how ludicrous it is to blame violent acts on game, but that it very likely will happen, as absurd as it is, its just a game, as a gun is just a gun.

    I agree with this, the question asks when he will resign with a range of dates, it does NOT ask when he will announce is resignation.

    I think the words in the statements shoud be read literaly, not interpretively, so more along the lines of lawyer speak or as one might read rules to a game (for example, interpreting Magic the Gathering card rules is very specific, there is little room for interpretation).

    If the question was 'When will he announce his resignment' then I would say today is the answer, but he has not yet officially resigned, he may not even resign on Monday, he's only stated thats when he expects to, the question is still really kinda open, but likely going to finish next week based on his announcement.
