I offer comfort for your withdrawls

With the next update to appear on the 22nd of March, i would like to ease everyones minds that us players in America have a glitter of hope in the sense that we "might" get on before the 22nd, or at least hear from SE before the 22nd, clearly for the fact that the 22nd will actually hit on the 21st for us here in USA, and its like....we can see the future before it happens!!!

SHHHHHH!!!!
Don't tell everyone!!! >.>
Time mage...

thread bump

Are we there yet?
Has it been 17 hours and 2 minutes yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?
Are we there yet?

Lol yeah, lunch time for me, for their midnight. So I'm expecting to either:
1) Be excited between 12pm and 8pm if they say the servers will be back on tomorrow
or
2) Wake up to be extremely upset that the servers aren't coming back on yet and pushed another few days/weeks.

Aw, damn, my heart skipped a beat. Is it that time already?

I really haven't been having withdraws, but I will jump back on FFXI as soon as I hear it's back with the rest of the grand re-opening mob of fans.

lol i think everyone is here cause they are waiting for their fix to come back online. like coffee junkies 10 minutes before starbucks opens, pounding on the door.

I'm trying to have the utmost optimism for tomorrow but... I don't know.

I am going to be optomistic, and hope that tomorrow, they post the exact date/time we will be able to log in again.
I am not optomistic enough to think that we will be able to log in tomorrow tho.. ; ;

haha i only mention it because i have to walk by them everyday on my way to work. and a friend works there and tells me horror stories of pretentious orders. but i cant wait to see the server lag for the update once the servers go back up. i expect to see a lot of POL error posts that day.

I just hope they already moved the servers to a more stable place and have them ready to run on the 22nd.

i'm also awaiting/dreading this. Although I don't want to rain on anybody's parade because I'm in the same boat as everyone else and I won't deny it, I'm not too hopeful for tomorrow...

I've always wanted to work at a Starbucks coffee shop though, the coffee smells soo.... *Foams from the mouth*

But I only drink it not to get a boost of energy but it's super delicious, Mrdelicious. ;D

Yeah, the servers would have problems since everyone and their grandma would be logging on all at once, and I'm not kidding about grandma, I've met a whole generation of a family that plays FFXI Grandma daughter husbands and their kids and mother in laws. o.O

thats Dr.Delicious haha and ive met whole families that play 11 also, and i do go in to Sbucks every so often for my caramel machiato, cause thats the bomb

hahaha lol a good part of my LS are grandparents including me. Proud wife, mom and grandmom of FFXI players!

That is so insane. I'm kinda jealous...I know of one family like that that plays on my server. Wish I had friends and family with the same FFXI addiction that I have lol.

lol seriously None of my family plays MMOs! I feel like an outcast. My brother thought about playing FFXI but he changed his mind.

All my family ever likes is Poker, First persons, action/adventures and puzzle games. and i am the only one who enjoys MMOs. >.>

I know several people who are RPG fanatics but not MMORPG fanatics. I've gotten two of my ex-boyfriends to play FFXI (and subsequently quit within 2-3 months.) and one of my high school buddies to play (who eventually quit.) SO FRUSTRATING!
