Bah, don't tell me the team's gone off focus again. You're redoing the castle? The main castle? Again?
Yeah, wrap it up, but seriously - don't bother. If something functionally works, leave it alone, you'll just waste hundreds of hours that could be better spent chipping away at new quests, places, towns, islands, player houses, etc.

If you have a set release date in mind, ie you intend to have several (never give a number) quests ready to go in time for the V4 release date (oops) or the beginning of winter break/Dec14th (nice round number) then go for it, just focus on getting as much as possible working properly by the deadline, slam the system against a guardrail until it accepts your quests, and by all means have SOMEthing ready by the deadline. 'cuz while I could probably pull the appropriate strings to look at what you got ready, I'm on the player side of the fence now, and hidden progress looks just like no progress at all.

I highly recommend SNick's Construction Graphics. The very illusion of progress is comforting. Plus it gives people something to try and sneak past.
