Is there a pre-order grace period?
Foe
I wont be able to pick up my pre-ordered copy of gwen till Monday (/wrist) Was wondering if a there is a grace period of day or 2 if u have pre-order key? Some games do this and i couldnt remember if gw did or not.

No. Apparently they "chose" to give us the sneak peak as a "thank you" for the pre-order instead of a grace period. According to Gaile, the GW engine can't do both.
edit: found the quote I was looking for.

We have not "lost" the capability, we have chosen to offer a different type of event: A sneak peek weekend instead of early access. The game is not coded to let people have both, we do not choose to offer both, and instead chose the former rather than the latter.
That quote was in response to people asking about a grace period to lessen the load on the store servers at 12:01 on Friday morning.

i would say probably not, because u could just say your buying it when you arent and then have an extra 2-3days playing the game for free.. dunno tho dont quote me on it
