If any of y'all don't want 3 names and your friend hasn't got in, save the name for them! Then late at night or another time where lots of people won't be making characters, delete the character and your friend can get the name!! I'm doing this for my friend because he's on vacation in Germany!

Well, that was a struggle, but got my names too. Getting one name on Mirage Raceway took 10 minutes. Then started the battle to get into Shazzrah server since the game kicked me out for half an hour until I finally got into a queue and took me 15 minutes to get into character creation, which bugged, so had no idea if I got my names or not, but in the end, I did. I think, I saw the names on the screen so should be ok :D Yeah, 2 pvp servers for EU, definitely too few, Golemagg was full aswell.

*PHEW!*

Got my names reserved thank goodness, I actually got an error on Shazzrah saying my name was unavailable, so I created a different name, got told it was unavailable again, so I logged out and went to create other names on another 2 servers, managed to get them and tried to get to Shazzrah again, constantly gettting booted, after 10 minutes I got in and saw both names were actually created and listed, I guess I glitched the system cause now I got 4...
I'm not even touching that and leave it as it is just in case I get royally screwed.

I finally managed to get into Arugal.
Got all 3 of the names I wanted.

Feeling very relieved.

Nice man!

I got one of my names, so I went with it and got a theme going.

Yeah I didn't get any of my names :)

I feel very upset about how it all went down, I got Time on Faerlina, and Times on Herod, but I wanted to roll on Herod, that "s" bugs me more than it should. Some of my friends had similar login issues to Herod so they got names on Faerlina, a few got lucky on Herod and refuse to go to Faerlina. So there's a split right now and I have to pick which friends I want to hang with more...

Funny how names have such an effect on us isn't it? I'm the same though.

I got my 3 names I wanted on Arugal: Ryder, Selexin, Recoil. (with the help of @Gallow)

Then I used my mates acct and got some more obscure ones I might use for alts: Goosey (daughters nickname), Ricochet, Recoup.

Will secure some more on launch to fill out the 10 slots. Getting on to Arugal was a fucking shitshow.

I'm just glad I could get Gallow on Arugal after stressing for about an hour :p

Awwww!

Cant wait until the realms section of the forum is made. Then I can find out who rolled on what.
Until then, who rolled Pagle?

I just got Preparation and Needmorerage on Shazzrah EU, will be getting Apol from my friend who got in earlier than me

It seems despiste the testing, the data they have been able to recollect and the several warnings made by the community it's clear that the amount of servers is clearly not enough. Queues for character creation just at the very opening of 12.000 people is is clearly a sign that the population per server is going to become 20.000-30.000 easy. That's like 10 times the original population and will clearly disrupt the experience

my rp-pvp character is ready.

Whats on 17th?!

Took a while to get through, managed to get Moleman AND Golemagg and Shazzrah, as I'm still undecided. Very glad I managed to get my name, I would have been fully stumped if I didn't

This reminds me of the time when Nostalrius had a 15k+ login queue. Blizzard are repeating the same problem Nostalrius had.

When you have 10k+ players literally waiting their entire day to play the game, they will NOT log out! not for anything! they will refuse to go through that process again by any means.
Time to go to bed? Auto-run + jump bot. Server Restart? Time to DDOS (enter spam) the login server to enter world before other players do.
Time to pick up the kids from school? Forget about it.

I thought Blizzard were receiving help on this from an ex-server team? don't they realise that 2 PVP servers would not be enough? who came up with this?

edit: I think it was Elysium sorry

I think we will clearly have long ass queues for the first week and the first day is gonna be a dumpster fire for english servers.

Liccon, Liccoff, Liccov all claimed on Mirage raceway. *HAPPY DANCE*

Got my name and back up bank alt on Whitemane! :D

Didn't get any of the three names I wanted because of so many different problems. From DCs to being placed on the wrong server after selecting the server I wanted. Feelsbadman.

Oh well at least I have three names that were runners up I guess....

Got the name Zuke, thanks blizz.

Haven't decided which server I am going to play but reserved my name on the 3 PVP Eastern servers!

Nýxt on all three! And I was able to customize all three so no need to recreate them!
