So if they're two months behind the regular schedule for 3.1 compared to usual 3-month patch cycles...what did the dev team do, take a two-month vacation? O__o

Kinda wondering if they weren't behind schedule for other reasons as well, and the whole "vacation" aspect is just a more PR-friendly way of admitting they're behind. Less likely to get your fanbase riled up, at least.

I don't really care either way, but I do wonder if patches will start to be more delayed in the future. Also find it curious that they're handing out free 210s in 3.1... Do they really believe a satisfactory amount of people will have cleared AS4 by then? I'm not convinced.
