Hey, there,

Just checking back with you. There's not a lot to report, but what there is to report is positive. The programmers are looking at the file now, which means they've received the full backup and can do a check to see what was off with the later build. No ETA on completion, but good news that the archive is in their hands, and they're continuing to work on it.

Once again, we apologize for the delay, and will have things going as quickly as possible.

well.. to keep everyone company, im gonna post up the skills that I managed to transcribe before I got booted :P

Warrior, Ranger and Mesmer skills were the only ones I could get down, so, yeah :P Have a look around the individual forums of these three professions for the threads.

It's really good to see people still smiling, you'd expect most people to get all hissy and say bad things about ANet, have a cookie everyone!

Shhh there's still time yet. Its 09:30 here so either people are just going to bed or not up yet.

Soon there will be hell to pay, I tell ya!

No, I dont have anything better to do than hang around here, untill someone tells me where that countdown is and I can glue myself to that.

Mmm... cookie. Well, this certainly was a bummer, but lucky me, it's just irritating. I thought the Preview was starting at 12AM (11AM my time), but apparently it was 12PM. So even if it starts at 4AM my time, It's still over 6 hours early.

Woo~

I applaud A.Net for not being just another "only the deadline matters" company, and bothering to fix the error instead of making us suffer a bugged event

But Neither Gaile nor anyone else has answered whether or not the time will be extended to compensate for the delay.

BTW 12:00 am is midnight and 12:00 pm is noon, just to let you know for future reference.
