The Transfers started out being tied to the Character creation block list, then after 11pm, when the list was updated showing a lot of them dropping off and allowing character creation, Transfers still weren't allowed. I'm hoping 4am's update changes that... maybe.
It's entirely possible they changed how they lock destination servers after things started rolling. Perhaps they saw the trend of tons of people moving onto already-crowded servers and locked them in hopes of not having those servers be totally overloaded; just because some managed to transfer onto them doesn't mean now or the future the same will be true, unfortunately.
