Blinded? Description has nothing about that...just says when you miss with a scythe...

With the sheer volume of people who will want to access the store upon opening, they may want to rotate access, kind of like server-based rotating blackouts. I doubt this is what they're doing, but it'd help with the upcoming server crisis.

no, this time the store is down and they know it, and its down on propose. "Down for maintenence" it says. It isnt because of server load.

Well hopefully them putting the button there means it will be here within the next couple hours..

Burn Butt · Jul 28, 2006, 10:51 PM // 22:51

The way I figure it..... If their servers can handle 1 bazzilion people transacting data on character types/skins/coordinates/spells/skills/attacks/damage/armour etc.... Then they could probably handle my credit card... I agree that down for maintenence != server load problems.

So.....

Gaile Grey says "soon" while really means "a while"

Now....

The store says it will be up in "short order" which means _________________?

once again- im sure they are doing EVERYTHING possible- say 500,000 people get just ONE slot- thats a cool 5 million dollars (easy in just one day, id think)

if 1/3 of the players get TWO slots= 20 million dollars.

Anet is only getting better- If I could work for any company in the world it would be ANet right now.

$5,000,000-20,000,000 US in pure profit - in the first few days of introducing the store. Not bad for an "online" business. Keep in mind that they don't actually loose anything, they are grabbing that money out of thin air, and it doesn't cost them a thing.

Of course you would still have to consider taxes and CC fees, but it's an enormous profit.
