Maybe it was an omen.

I'm sticking with my prediction from this thread:
Time to dampen some spirits.
I did some research, and checked the various News posts on the CoH main page. These are the results I got:
4/27/09 - I15 Overview
6/26/09 - I15 Launch
7/15/09 - I16 Overview
9/16/09 - I16 Launch
2/24/10 - I17 Overview
4/28/10 - I17 Launch
8/17/10 - GR/I18 Launch
10/5/10 - I19 Overview
Looking at that pattern, an Issue Launch seems to come almost exactly 2 months after an Issue Overview is posted.
Two months from 10/5 is 12/5, and that's a Sunday, so we need to add 2 days, since Launches seem to happen on Tuesdays.
Using that patten, my expected Launch Date for Issue 19 is December 7, 2010.

Yes paying attention to historical patterns has its place. On the other hand based on what the Devs said they were actually targeting to have it out "around" Nov 16th. It seems the unhandled Kheldian bug was/is the only major thing that kept it from happening yesterday.|

This still leaves us Nov 30th as an equally likely date given the circumstances. Ironically going just by the game's history there have been several Issues that have launched the week after a given Thanksgiving.
Of course it could very well fall back to Dec 7th at this point. But that won't be because of the beta patterns of the last couple of years - it'll be because a bug kept them from launching it on Nov. 16th.

The 7th is also launch day for that other expansion for that other MMO.

Why? The new rules put in place were for the Comic And Hero/Villain Culture section of the forums. We're still allowed to mention WoW and the like in other threads, as before.

Presently, Closed Beta is still ongoing for Issue 19. And that's all I can say at this time.
If you guys are good, you can have it for Xmas under your tree XD

And, judging by the recent post in Announcements...I think tomorrow is a safe guess for release, luckily well before Christmas

Open beta for Issue 19 started on November 12th. A closed beta means it is not open to the public for testing.
Maybe today ?
There has just been a announcement about three Hours of downtime .....
