    Red face STRESS TEST, JUNE 27th!

    "We were very pleased with how our servers performed during our second Beta Weekend Event, but we want to gather additional data on how they operate under load before the next one.
    That’s where you come in.
    All players who have pre-purchased Guild Wars 2 are invited to participate in our upcoming stress test. This four-hour test event will run on Wednesday, June 27th, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. PDT (GMT-7).
    We won’t wipe characters for this event, so if you played in our previous betas, you can pick up right where you left off. All we need you to do is log in and have fun—leave the stress to us!"

    Guess they want the people who don't have jobs to do the stress test.

    It's basically the same as every other stress test they've had but two hours shorter. Obviously it's been working so far or they would have changed the time.

    Yeah.. asking for it to be 24hours would be asking Anet to work 24hours. This time is convenient for Anet, and obviously worked judging by the fact that this is the 3rd stress test in a row that is mid-day on a weekday.

    A man can dream right? Of course I know there are other places in the world... it's just that... 4 hours is not even close enough of a fix and in a workday? I mean I'll settle even if it's a Friday, but middle of the work week too? Punch me in the nads...

    Contrary to prior belief, it's for them to test not for us to get a fix. =P

    And i'm guessing its only 4 hours as so more ppl play at the same time so the stress test is actually a server stress test of sorts... probs mean there will be limited servers... never been in a stress test, can you tell? :P
