You guys have to wait until 9, but I get to see it a 3am!!! haHA! I win!
Eh? I'd have thought the new site would go live simultaneously world-wide. I can't see any country having access to it before anybody else. 9 a.m. in our time zone may well correspond to 3 am in yours!

Yep you're right Jim. But I ain't getting up at 4 in the morning.
Lazy yank! Call yourself a blue?

Nobody said you had to stay up that late bigquinn, just get up that early :P
 
erm...I don't know how I did it...one second it was the old website...I clicked shop and it became the new one....I'm on the new site right now...IT'S AWESOME!


Seriously, ask me anything, and you'll see it for yourself tomorrow for proof!
 
Things I have noticed after digging around the site's CSS files:

We now own the mancity.com domain
iPhone users have their own CSS, which means they have designed a layout especially for Phone. (actually, this is a TODO, not implemented yet)
IE6/IE7 too, default is Firefox
The shop is now part of the main site
They are HEAVY on Flash, even using it for headlines
Colour Scheme is nice
It's big on video
It isn't finsihed yet. The files were last altered on 31 March, and there is some stuff knocking around saying TODO: Will do in Phase 2.
Podcast is still there, as is a strange 'download section'. These are seperate entities, maybe wallpapers etc.
The site is available in English and Arabic. Looks like more languages will be added later.
The site has a special 'print view' which will remove unneccesary content

Just to say that the designer (Gemma Leigh) has excellent coding style/comments, the code looks very clean.

Not a great amount of info, but something to keep you ticking over until 9am!
