Who else is in this bucket? Maybe we can all coordinate rolling on the same realm? We'll call it the official Barrens Chat NA East PvP realm. ;-)

Updates:

  • The greater Streamer community has decided that they will be going to Faerlina. This has been confirmed by Twitter updates from Soda, Asmongold, Esfand, Staysafe, Tipsout, and others.
  • The Brazilian community (est. 3000) has selected Thalnos as their server. This has been confirmed from multiple sources, including Classic WoW Brasil Subreddit, Classic Brasil Discord, and the US-PT Blizzard forums.
  • The Spanish-speaking LATAM community (est. 600-1000) has selected Thalnos as their server as well. This has been confirmed from multiple sources, including their Facebook Group page and the US-ES Blizzard forums.
  • Updating poll to account for new NA East PvP realm Stalagg, announced by Blizzard on August 14th due to unexpectedly high demand for NA East PvP realms.
  • Updating poll once again to account for new NA East PvP realm Skeram, announced by Blizzard on August 19th.

Server Demographics information to help us make a decision can be found here, here, and here.

Actually, maybe we need to figure out where the streamers are going first...

Can you add a poll to OP?

I'll be in one of them but I'm waiting on word from my guild leaders.

I am possibly down. I am deciding between a PvP realm that isn't the most populated or the RP-PVP realm.

I won't be able to add two polls to one post. :-( You should create a separate one for PvE and maybe Teeb can pin them all so we can figure out who is going where.

Someone on the subreddit mentioned that the big streamers are going NA East PvP, and that Esfand plans on announcing the realm pick right after name reservation. The safe choice would be to wait until after this announcement so that the Barrens Chat platoon can roll where the big streamers are not.

This is partially the reason I am really leaning to RP-PVP. It's a PvP server in nature, and I don't think the streamers will go on it due to the RP tag. Not to mention it is one of a kind, so population shouldn't be an issue.

This recent comment by Tips in his latest video semi-confirms this.

Stress test though? Or just hyping up since it recently got announced? Screenshot makes it hard to see the context.

Yeah someone on the subreddit mentioned two other streamers plan to roll RP-PvP with Venruki. I think it's the Asmongold/Sodapoppin/Esfand/StaySafe/Tipsout crowd that most people are trying to avoid though.

They're all rolling on the same one? Confirmed?


P.S. Is the poll revotable?

Regarding confirmation, no not really. I was watching Esfand's Twitch and he mentioned two other streamer names (can't remember off the top of my head) so I don't know if they are ALL going in the same one, but several of them are planning on rolling together.

There is an 'Avoid Streamers' Discord (https://discord.gg/nVkwP8c) for people to share and discuss this, and also a website here: https://www.avoidstreamers.com/.

Yes the poll is revotable, but for good measure I plan to reset it after name reservations so that we can make a decision knowing where the big streamers are going.

Thanks! I knew about the website but not the discord.

They're keeping both Faerlina and Herod open to see which one they get their names on.

They only threw us Thalnos because it is the weakest name in their opinion. Personally, I'm not too interested in Thalnos either and will watch to see where the dust settles before making big decisions.

Take note that they even left Whitemane open as a last resort despite it not being in the right time zone. Three of the five PvP servers. What does that tell us?

Each of the streamers is going to try to create the best name they can on each of the three servers. After they do, they'll decide which of the servers they'll use. They would really rather have Whitemane than Thalnos which is interesting from the server location perspective, but likely their last resort.

I agree that we should revisit this after name reservations.

With respect to Thalnos, are you aware of anything tied to that server that is making you not particularly keen on it? We could all benefit from inside information if so. :mrgreen:

New information: Brazilians are going to Thalnos. That will lead to additional fragmentation between English/Portuguese speakers. Personally I'm now leaning towards Herod or Faerlina, whichever one the Streamers decide not to go to next week.
