Q-Prime: Operational
Q-Squared: Operational
Q-Relativity: Operational
Delivery Times: On target.
Deliveries will come from “[email protected].” Please add this email to your safe senders list. You’ll also receive an email from the Q-store that your order is “complete.” If you receive that second email without the first, check your spam.
Those who continue to break this rule will be banned from future purchases at the Q store. This notice is on the cart and the checkout. Unless you are simply licensing modules, you MUST click the Build Title link, fill out the form and pay for the “Build Fee.”
The soft launch of Q was INCREDIBLE. Demand greatly exceeded our expectations. We took that additional revenue and invested directly back into the company. First, we commissioned our programmer to add additional functionality into Q (which allows us to create and test the new Ultima build) AND we purchased two more machines, meaning Q is now running on three powerful machines.
Q-Prime: AMD FX-8350, Octacore Processor @ 4.0ghz (the oldest of the bunch), which we use for Q-Standard builds (Terminus and Terminus ^ 2 gives this one a bit of trouble – in fact, Terminus ^ 2 killed the original Q-Prime, but we were able to salvage some of the components).
Q-Squared: Intel i7-9750H, Hexacore Processor w/ Hyperthreading @ 4.2ghz, 16gb ram
Q-Relativity: Intel i9-9980HK, Octacore Processor w/ Hyperthreading @ 4.2ghz, 32gb ram.
This means processing times for your titles will be significantly faster, and we’ll be able to conduct more experiments.
Remember everyone: There is a glitch in Q where it’s sending out the email that the order is complete BEFORE it’s uploaded to Amazon S3. Don’t be alarmed, just give it 10-15 minutes before attempting to download. We’re working on fixing that with the next release of Q.
Express service has been restored, but due to the fact that the queue is still full, the price has temporarily raised to $75. Express service is 1-day guaranteed, seven days a week. If we miss the deadline, we’ll refund your express service charge.
Reminder: All custom orders will be processed in 3-5 business days (which don’t include weekends, but we’ve been processing them anyway). Please don’t submit support requests, and definitely don’t submit nasty support requests asking about the status of the subliminal unless we’ve blown the deadline.
Two issues:
We have identified an issue where people aren’t receiving the e-mail containing the link to their custom and we’re working to resolve it. It’s not on our end – the service we use to generate emails, SendGrid, has ended up on the various lists that your email provider uses to block spam.
We’ve already contacted SendGrid and they’re working on the issue. In the meantime, I’m going to manually send out the emails as the orders are complete.
Second issue: Please, everyone – send your order number when you PM us for support. If you don’t, it’ll hold up your support request.
Thanks!
Just a note: I understand everyone’s anxious to get their orders after purchasing, but please refrain from sending multiple support messages until the order is actually five days late. Thanks!
The Q site is currently down for upgrading. We’re connecting the site to the final Q platform in preparation for full automation.
The store is back open. The design has changed and it’s a bit more clean / barebones, but we’ll be updating it over the next few weeks. Even though it looks different, functionality is still the same. The update was necessary in order for us to install the NOP (new order process) that will connect to the Q-software and allow for full automation. Once full automation is done, we can move toward name embedded major subs.
Q-Enterprise (the official production Q server) is now live and updated with the latest version of Q. It’s a pretty powerful custom built server, running on a AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X processor (32 cores). Starting later this week (as we migrate all of our internal systems to the new machine), delivery times will be GREATLY decreased for two reasons:
First, the new version of Q is capable of utilizing the Threadripper’s multiple cores and processing threads (can’t quite maximize them yet, but we’ll get there), meaning our processing power has increased exponentially.
Second, for those who don’t know, right now there’s a human element in the custom creation process. Q-Engineer has to monitor the whole process, as well as make corrections when the system glitches out. The new version of Q contains a number of tools and settings to make their job MUCH easier.
In the next update, we’ll be adding the ability for Q to create Ultimas (yes, that means we’ll be able to add Ultima builds to the Q-store), maximizing the multicore functionality and soon after, finishing the “full automation” feature.
Ultima will be coming to the Q store within the next week or two. We’re still testing everything, so the plans may change, but right now, Ultima customs will be limited to 3-6 modules. While there’s emerging evidence that Ultimas can cause deep, deep change, custom Ultimas should still be used as a booster. For example, if you have a wealth-based custom, your custom Ultima could contain productivity, wealth and business boosting modules. Right now, you won’t be able to add Cores to Ultima customs for a number of reasons, the main being that they’re simply too large. More details to come.
FAQ / knowledgebase restored on the Q store.
The Q store is currently down for maintenance. We’ll let you know when it’s back up and ready to go.
Service has been restored.
Q service has been restored. We’ll be pushing out customs for the rest of the day. If we missed your express payment, you’ll be refunded for that.
We’re currently a day or two behind on Q orders. Module Pack #5 is turning out to be quite popular. We apologize for the inconvenience and we’re currently pushing orders non-stop.
