i doubt it is an intentional white lie paranoid... nothing works perfect the first time through.

Sorry, but that is just stupid...... I waited up until 2AM Eastern to play. If they chose to extend the event it should be for a set amount of time from when it was supposed to open, not some hokey formula by server because the US was supposed to be in bed. It is getting towards 9 hours late now.. they should just give us an extra day for the trouble. They might do it too.. because they actually test things during this preview event.

I have stuff to do today so I just put it on -image and it will be a lot faster once they fix the problem. I understand that there can be delays...... but the message on the website that it is working is kind of lame since it isn't working. I think the free key for everyone sucks if that is what causes these delays.

This is the missing time. Your sarcasm was witty, but still formed on the basis of some flawed reasoning.

It really wasn't, though. Some people in the US went to bed early so they could wake up early so they could have time to play, because they wouldn't be able to play throughout the day. Just because it's been daytime for EU doesn't meant squat. Everybody had missed out on the same amount of event time, regardless of where they lived. It just depends on whether they had the ability to play it or not if it had been available.

NOBODY deserves the event more than anybody else.

You don't need the GW site code if you already have a GW account of some type.

I'm in now - have fun guys!

You are wasting your own time, don't blame it on somebody else. Go take a walk, You in its going to take some time.

hmm maybe who knows, I grab the code anyway and placed in to make sure. Still came up in my account codes as NF perview event even tho I have the first GW and Factions >.> So yeah maybe people who have it all ready don't need the code. It was a last min reaction to see if that was the reason couldn't enter the NF area yet.

It updates while you're in the game. I was browsing the character creation screen when it reset, and now Nightfall is selectable.
