World Transfer Applications Begin (03/01/2012)

[Headseed]

For those that are complaining about not being able to transfer SE told you what time you could transfer and also that they would fill fast


First Stage: From 0:00 a.m. PST, March 1 (Thursday) to 0:59 a.m. PDT, March 12 (Monday), 2012.
- Players will still be able to change Worlds even after applying for a World transfer.
* Players will not be able to select Worlds that are already populated with the maximum number of characters, but players will be able to move from such Worlds to other Worlds. Note that if a player leaves one World to transfer to another World, and in the interim the first World is filled with the maximum number of characters, the player will no longer be able to transfer back to the original World.
* It is possible that some Worlds will reach the population limit very soon after World transfer applications begin.

Even Ragnarok is full now.

Ragnarok is still displayed as open for me; not even △ yet.

Okay, ill bite. I was up at 3am spamming refresh and clicked the link as soon as it appeared. At 3:01am, Ridill Balmung Sargatanas and another server were already X and every other one was a delta except for Ragnarok.

They also said from March 13th and beyond "if your selected server fills up, that server and your selection will become locked" Whats the point of waiting until March 13th if theyre already(or started) full of players? (Inactive ones at that)

Blame the people who said Option 2 was the best to go with~ Not really SE's fault for giving people what they wanted.

i believe option 2 had the option to transfer server if you want. i can see how people are upset. It would be like ordering a pepperoni pizza and they only put 1 pepperoni on it(yes, i compared the merger to pizza).

[Vydos]

Well that was certainly to be expected. Basically what Xianghua has been repeating. The community received what they wanted. Honestly if I were the devs, I'd be laughing my ass out at this situation. It's like one of those "I told you didn't I? But did you want to listen...Noooo~"

There's also the matter that some people have accounts with multiple characters spread on different servers. Mind you S-E did mention that multiple characters on the SAME server counts as 1 for those wondering.

On another note, I'm an EU player but I never intended to move to Ragnarok. I prefer to play with everyone around the globe. Besides as an european, I tend to prefer playing with US people as they tend to be more fun and entertaining. *Reads the forums and this thread* Yep definately more entertaining.

[Headseed]

And I will as well. This is what everyone wanted. Maybe not you but the majority did not want to leave their inactive LS members behind.

Bottom line SE did not surprise us with this they spelled it out very clearly. That's really all I want to get across. I hope you do get to move to the server of choice as well as everyone else.

[TessaJalloh]

This is a shame for those who didn't get a chance to move, perhaps the caps should have been higher methinks. I'm not going anywhere so i'm unaffected but still...

[Filtiarne]

I wrote myself a short program to fix this problem in c++. I will be clicking apply every 3 seconds for the next 12 days. Might log into a second computer to get it down to 1.5sec.

よろしくお願いします。
I have questions regarding server transfer
Even if I don't sign up for any server transfer I would be able to move to the server which is merging into automatically? would appreciate if one of the staff can answer this one, thanks.
はい。こちらのページ（http://sqex.to/rr6）にワールド合併の組み合わせが表示さ...は特に何もしなくてOKです。
Yes, in this page (link) we displayed how the server merges are going to be and if you are OK with that merge you don't have to do anything.

何も操作しなければ、3月27日に予定しているワールド合併メンテナンス時に、「新ワールド」欄に記載されているワールドに自動的に合併されます。
If nothing is done; after 3/27's planned world transfer you will automatically moved to the listed new world.

＜これまでの経緯も含めた説明を以下に補足しておきます（結論だけ知れば充分、という方は以下はご覧にならないで大丈夫です）＞
- Going to put the list of changes up until now, for those that are OK with just the final result don't need to read below -


当初提示させていただいた案では「全員操作が必要」でした。その後皆さんからのフィードバック等を踏まえ、今回の統合組み合わせのデフォルトを用意する合併方式へと変更しています。
Original plan required every player to take part but after receiving everyone's feedbacks we changed the method and prepared the default world for the merge

今回移転受付を開始の時点で「×」だったり「△」スタートだったりというワールドが並んだという点に違和感を覚えられた方がいらっしゃるのも、この差による ところが大きいと考えられます。当初の方式でいけば全ワールド「○」スタートとなるものですが、最終的に決定した方式では、新ワールドにキャラクターが最 初からいる状態からのスタートとなりますので、状況に応じて△だったり×だったりのスタートになります。
You may of felt awkward when the server transfer started it already showed X or (triangle) for some worlds. With original plan it would of started with all (Circle) but with decided method the characters are already going to be in the new worlds already at start so in situation it could end up with (triangle) or X

現在×のワールドに関しても、転出が増えて受け入れられる数が増えた場合、今後△化する可能性はあります。
For worlds with the X on them if many plan on moving out then it's possible to change to (Triangle)

I'm really hoping this server crap clears up soon. I was really hoping to switch to Masamune to play with some IRL friends I have on that server. but I was disappointed to find it, and pretty much every other server completely full within the first DAY... so yeah I'm just waiting to see if this madness clears up.
