Dragon — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 10:15
It's another patch day and thus it's time to start placing our patch day bets on when servers come up. You don't wager anything thus you don't lose anything (most times) so give us your guesses.
Cromi: 2pm ST (Tomorrow)
Aurleas: 7:20pm ST
Dragon: 7pm ST
Saedo: 6:36pm ST
Derch: 6:15pm ST
Jayel: 5:45pm ST
Keisjaa: 5:45pm ST but crashing by 8pm ST
JudgeDredd: 4:50pm ST
Kaluu: 4pm ST (with constant restarts inbetween 4-10)
Do you have a better guess? Give it to us and we'll place it up here. Winner will get an ego boost.

Elapsed — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 14:32I request 9pm server as by then I will be home from work and have had time to eat some dinner before delving into relearning the game all over again
And bravo to the team of Cromi and Scaron for that amazing prediction....only if it weren't so damned plausible

Keisjaa — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 12:13I'm gonna say it'll be up for a bit at about 5:45just long enough to lul people into a "we can raid" mentality before having tobe brought down again tilljust before 8
I AGREE WITH KEIS!!!

They shut down the server at
cromi — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 11:07They shut down the server at 12 last night.
So I'd say the servers will come up tomorrow at 2pm. But they will have to shut down the servers fully at 3pm, because someone lost a line of code in the new guild interface in the patch, and they have to reimplement the old guild system as it's been broken, resetting every guild in the game which will destroy the social aspect, of the world, of warcraft. which will in turn destroy the world as nerds look for something else to do with their time. Which just happens to be destroying the infrastructure of north korea, which starts a war with them, and then china, which draws nuclear war from Iran, which kills the pope, which destroys the UN, which frees the terrorists, who kill the pope, who reopens the crusades, which creates a draft, which draws the kennedy's away from the U.S, who just happened to be the only source of sanity left for our political system.
Fanciful. Allow me to suggest
Scaron — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 13:06Fanciful.
Allow me to suggest another chain reaction I consider more likely.
Let's presume you're right about the destruction of guilds and WoW leading up to nerds with free-time. Then, I'm guessing we'll see a rush of nerds everywhere trying to get their hands on porn and lube. Moriella will become the richest person on the planet and nerds everywhere will go blind, only barely richer than the folks who make KY jelly. (If you're a player of the stock market I'd suggest buying your KY Jelly stock now).
This should occur by 10:00pm server time tonight.
KY stock going up?
Enixa — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 16:32KY stock going up?
Hour 14 without wow. And that
cromi — Tue, 10/12/2010 - 14:55Hour 14 without wow. And that plan seems pretty damn good.
I've slept a whole 8 hours, changed the oil on my truck, taken a shower, bought some much needed shoes at the outlet mall, and carried on a conversation with a pretty woman for almost a whole 5 minutes.
And yet, I still feel empty, I should go buy some KY before work.
I like how your apacolypse ends better, Mori with money and power... scary.
You sir win 2 internets, I
