It has come to my attention that if you roll a new toon, you can now choose the Ar server in the server list, so the shard is open to new creation (smart move actually)

I recommend that everyone who is transferring roll a new toon on the server to test lag.

GM's post here if there is a problem with this and if this will do anything to the toon moves that are coming up, but I think it would be good for everyone to see for themself what there connection will be like.

Its not like adding windermeer will be that many players.
lol you must be kidding

Unless Arispotle is in a diferent situation entirely, then it easily had more when it opened than the current combined arispotle/windermeer population.

Zumwalt -

Confusion - after entering in your game password, the shard choice pops up; I only have Windermeer. I started crafting a new toon, but thought came to me that it would still appear under Windermeer shard.

The only way I can think to test Aristotle shard is to open new 14day trial account (I haven't tried this though) on the password screen.

Anyway, the scuttlebutt is that the change-over will be on Friday 4/1
(It would be Fool's Day :/)

Cerest has already posted that they are currently testing and the current schedule puts us all together on one happy world next week sometime.

Heavyn posted on our forums that she created a new toon on there server and spent a few hours talking to there folks, I did not personally test this myself and only took her word for this.

I appoligize for any inconvienence, I was going on the word of one of our guild mates that I trust.

I can only assume that she got in during a time that the shard was open to new toons and they have now closed this option.

It would be nice if they re-opened it so people who are migrating can test there connection ahead of time to be ready.

Folks currently playing on Arispotle from NA do not have the horrendous lag issues you are trying to make people believe exist. We play the game with no problems whatsoever.

Apparenly Linze you can't read, go up to the first post in this thread and re-read it, I am stating for people to create accounts on the server and test for themself if they get lag or not, I am not preaching you will get lag in this thread, I am saying try it yourself.

As far as NA players on the server, I have tested creating a new toon since my last post on an existing account and could not select any server but windermeer, then I created a new account and tried to select the server, you know what, I am sure you can guess this also, I could only select Windermeer.

So do I believe people are playing from USA on EE server?
Not unless somehow they were given a special IP address that the login server liked that allowed them to create an account, or they got lucky and there was a complete fluke in server selection.

I tried both ways.

they're probly doing the same thing euro players do when playing on the na server, they bought the box for that server.

i know of at least 3 ppl who live in europe that play on the na server, they bought the na box. so the na player playing on the ee server must have bought the ee box

How does this jive for the digital download? Isn't it supposed to be universal?
