This is the reason I checked the ping to each of the server groups before deciding on one. There was a server list going around suggesting four different ones for Oceanic guilds, two in JP and two in NA but it failed to mention the ping variation for them from what I saw.

You will have to wait to see what SE allows when they finally open the servers up for transfers. Unfortunately your currently stuck unless you want to start over as it is possible to start fresh characters on Tonberry as I created one there in the past eight hours by refreshing the server list in character creation until it was available.
