And lets not forget that SE does have the data and they already plan on increasing the reward for the roulette..why would they do that if they are happy with the amount of vets running it? It might not be as worse as we believed it would be but its seemingly not in the numbers that SE wanted. So that is a clear sign to me that maybe this affected more than they hoped it would.
@Krotoan: You know people can be annoyed at a chance even if they are not personally part of it..some of us (especially us main DD) know how horrible long queue times are and we might just feel bad for all those newer players that will not like the chance. Also we might just be a bit annoyed at SE for changing it in that way instead of providing a good long term solution...(like solo instance) It was the same with the ARR story line..people complained a lot about the boring MSQ but instead of changing them a bit they just gave us Jump potions..completely forgetting that this game will be running a long time and only a small amount of people would pay that much to jump over a story so that not changing anything will probably lose them newer players..
