A name change is required to log in.

[Ursa_Vonfiebryd]

I have a name change pending on my main character. It will not allow you to do so with the servers the way they are right now. You will not be able to queue until you change your name. You cannot change your name until the game can actually display your character data.

Does anyone know a work around for this?

Oh. That makes sense. I can only suggest logging in quickly either in the morning or really late at night when the congestion isnt as bad.
