Stalagg just crashed, and everyone who was on got stuck at the back of the queue. There's some salt in Discord right now. My queue went from 13k to 8k almost instantly, maybe I'll get to play tonight!

yep, 10 minutes alright

Guild moved from Thalnos over to Stalagg, just got home from work, 24.5k in queue... nice

On a scale of 1 to smug, what do you think the expression on their faces is right now?

You think you do, but you don't.

Blizzard has said if you're at the character select screen the "Enter World" button will light up when the realms go live. Of course they could troll the shit out us and boot everyone back to login screen before they flip the switch.

I doubt their woke staff ever even considered that "Whiteman" would be a thing when they were naming the servers. It's gonna be spicy.

Even if they do that, they have no way of knowing which server I'm going to login to on Monday, so I guess they have to count my characters on all 3 realms as a potential player there. Worf, we'll see how long the ride lasts. Guild is large enough that I won't ever have to PUG anything at least.

Yeah I have to wonder about their estimates because many people (myself included) made characters on 3 different servers but will only be playing on one to start. I'll be playing with my oldschool guild on Thalnos but went ahead and reserved my name on Whiteman to fuck around with you guys...

Also note if you're a caster and the area is packed, use your weapon to tag instead of trying to cast a 1.5s spell to do it.

I'm pretty sure you can go to the Blizzard store in-game and buy it, same way you buy a token for gold. There's an icon for it on the default toolbar. You can make your own account and look for free, WoW is free to play now up to level 20. There's a bunch of restrictions on the trial account...

I'M THE STREAMER GIVE ME THE MOUNT! I'M NEVER STREAMING AGAIN IF I DON'T GET IT! I'M SO CLOSE TO 300 MOUNTS :( :( :( fucking lol that guy who got it is a hero.

From what I understand their intention is for layering to only apply to starting zones for the first week or two. I doubt you'll be able to flip them for Lotus or Thorium etc like you can right now in beta. Playing tonight was pretty AIDS but that's to be expected with only 2 servers up and...

Typical, they don't understand or want to admit the reason people stay locked at 110 in the first place - their dogshit scaling system. This won't affect me so much as I only use my 110 twink to farm old raids and shit at 160% run speed, but it will legit fuck over any fresh 110s wanting to do...

Unequipping your weapon before a wipe was definitely a thing in classic. You couldn't swap armor in combat but you could swap your weapon. Gold was so scarce back then and everyone did it.

300 people in the starting zones fighting over 3 slow ass respawning wolves. Also, no shared tags.

Well it's up and easy to login now if anyone wants some level 5 goodness

Maybe it was a little over the top but it looked real enough to me! Wait... was it real?

haha we are at SALTCON 11, they edited the post already

Server's down again. If it's any consolation even if you do get in you can't really fight or do much of anything right now. Wish I could've gotten in for the gnome run though.

There are more people playing (or trying to play) this than BfA right now I bet

It just let me create a character and get in, if anyone's waiting try now

He's the President or CEO or whatever of Blizzard, he took over for Mike Morhaime when he retired.

You think you do, but you don't.

It is kinda crazy how many people they have in each layer right now. It's laggy as fuck but it IS a stress test they're doing.

Good lord there are a shitload of people in elwynn

Heh Asmon got in but everyone's characters are stuck and can't move. People phasing in and out like mad. They're supposedly testing out the layering now.

The salt over streamers getting in is funny. Of course they did why wouldn't they get priority, it's an advertising gold mine. Sucks for us plebs but life isn't fair blah blah blah. Stuck with character creation timing out now.

Server's back up. Stuck at logging in though

Level 2s PvPing in Ungoro is hilarious

Showing offline for the past 10 minutes for me. At least this Asmon gnome shit is entertaining

There's like 100+ gnomes in the starting area

Asmongold just got in

Ah ok I thought it was 6pm today. Well at least there's a chance it will be "up" later on tonight then. I keep getting to this screen then booted:

So does anyone know if getting into this stress test means we're in the beta afterwards? Because it says "Beta & Stress test" on the launcher. Or is it just for these 2 hours then fuck off?

Got to server select, kicked out. Position in queue 2777

Honestly it's kind of sad. Thanks to Team Ion's war on fun, everyone just assumes changes like this are intentional.

It was the Starks breaking out of their graves in the crypts after the Night King did his flex rez. A pal of mine says Lyanna Stark was one of them but I can't be assed to go research it. It would've been pretty awesome if they did a Ned Stark cameo for this.

Dolphins fucking fleeced us, but good for Rosen. I will be cheering for him to defeat the evil empire this season.

They should keep him as a backup for when Murray gets murdered in Week 6
