So that French board would whine instead of us?

Guys, seriously, they even promised that EU event would be different from US one, which hardly qualifies as "not giving a damn". And as I understand unfortumnate down-timing this week is related to AE cross-server nature (and the fact that it touches more of the game than market servers do. ) and would be there even if NC and PS were all right in the middle of the UK.

Hold on. French? W(h)ine? I am sure you missed a great pun opportunity there.

Given that people on the Eu Continent seem to be better at speaking multiple languages that the majority of the people in England, I wonder how bad the French and German community would take it if the english version of the announcements were posted a few hours in advance?

I would imagine most of them would be able to read the English version, so wouldn't worry too much about it.

And yes, I know I'm generalising somewhat, but my experience of friends around the world online is that they usually seem to speak english far better than my english friends do other languages

true. english native speakers are generally quite lazy... not intentionally though. I went out with a portuguese girl that had perfect english. all the songs she liked growign up, all the tv shows (they subtitle, not dub) were in english so its easier to learn ebcause they have more exposure. English speakers have to go out of their way to find media in foreign languages and most of us (unfortunately) cant be bothered.....

I normally prefer to post all EU announcements at the same time (so, EN, FR and DE all together). I'll publish the EN version shortly, however.

It's five o'clock on a Friday, GhostRaptor. Forget the silly announcement and get thee to a pub already.

Ghosty, does that mean that we get Devs on our test server as well?
And competitions etc?

[/ QUOTE ]

There will be devs on EU Training Room. One of the competitions is global, there's a US-only competition, and an EU-only competition.

Avatea and myself should be kicking around on the Training Room as well.

This all sounds very exciting. Looking forward to Tuesday. I would imagine the servers are going to be much busier than usual.

Any rough guestimates of times when we might see someone? It's just a pain swapping servers every half hour or so.

And to save starting a new thread, the reactivation week doesn't seem to have happened.

So GR can't say when he's be on the server because it's still morning in America?

I would've thought there would be some kind of schedual or action plan for today's appearances though.

Why would you want to see GR? He isn't alowed to say anything.
