I'm a scanlator, and I'm talking about groups that do put claim to projects that they fully know they cannot start on for at least another half a year. Not all groups do this, of course, but these groups do exist, and I've unfortunately had the displeasure of working for (and quitting) a few of them.

if you ppl think its months of no release. how bout looking at past cycles. as early as june some groups starts saving for xmas release >.>
