Where did you choose to logout prior to maintenance?

North shroud, just came out of raid night and went to bed.

New Gridania's Inn. Fell asleep right on the bed.

I just tried to get as much done as possible, "logged out" when the 90k hit while crafting the last of my ixal dailies.

My counter to your stance was stating some people, myself included prioritize personal housing over other things and our strategy was to logout in a specific ward in order to claim a plot. :D

Next to Urianger, since I'll be on at least 20h after maint is over, and my raid is just 1h later.

Outside the rogue guild of course.

Same place I always log out: my FC house.

There was a party outside the Rogues' guild, so I hung out until maintenance killed us all.

The inn. 'u';

Whoops, the Gridania inn.

I logged out in the CURRENT housing ward I am hoping I need to be in to directly tele to my 'ideal' ward/plot...in the added wards (I am assuming you have to now go to the old wards, then tele to the new...so if you want ward 1, plot 31, you need to tele to ward 1, then tele again to the new ward) But man, sooooooo nervous. I will feel better if we can download the game early, but if the downloading only starts at 4am EST....I am likely going to be a sad panda.

Also researching which plots are in which tier so i know the prices etc. Porting straight to my plot.

Welp it was a nice thought anyways. Im likely about to lose out on my desired plot in Mist. Still no download and i have to do the responsible adult thing and go to bed. Work 12 hours shifts. My plan was to download before bed and set the alarm for 10 mins before servers came up get my house then go back to bed for a little bit. Now i have to choose between getting up and sitting here downloading a patch for likely 30 mins to an hour or more in the middle of the nightand being dead tired during my 12 hour shift tomorrow or just saying screw it and get some sleep. Damn you SE im already up an hour later than i planned.
