Layering removed today, phase 2 pushed till Thursday 11/14. Expect Queues & transfers...

Layering removed today on Arugal , Faerlina , Herod , and Whitemane.

If you don't want to sit in queue on Faerlina, Herod, Arugal, and Whitemane I would login ASAP when you can...

Expect Queues & transfers...

Phase 2 is now on Thursday 11/14 (not today).

Free transfers opened up yesterday but some free transfers are restricted to Horde only so Alliance on those servers are basically have no choice but to wait in queue. The updated post is:

Note that the free transfers may close at any time so if you are thinking about doing it focus on making that decision ASAP (or the decision may be made for you)...

Some Queues are already above 2.5K and it isn't even 5pm Central.

I checked periodically and on Herod I had well over 1K at least at one point. I can't remember for sure if hit 2K but it did go up and up for awhile.

The highest I saw on Faerlina was 3K but I stopped checking after awhile.

Some posted measurements on the queues that are consistent with what I saw (Herod > 2K & Faerlina >3K):

US West

Realm	Queue Size	Estimated Time
Whitemane	2700	145 min
Fairbanks	1700	74 min

US East

Realm	Queue Size	Estimated Time
Faerlina	3600	200 min
Herod	2650	168 min
Incendius	1200	57 min

Also Skeram, Pagel, & Benediction also had some queues.

Arugal was at 650 15 minutes ago, 1000 5 minutes ago.

Failarena is the worst :) I'm there, yesterday i got disconnected as i went to make something to eat. I came back 10min later my Q was 4k :)

It looks like QUE Starts @ 2pm CST. so expect Q's : around 2pm till 10pm. :)

Yeah getting disconnected when you want to AFK for a few minutes and then finding you were sent to the back of the queue totally sucks...

If you get DCed you are fine if you can log back in quickly (like 2 minutes or less) but you are screwed otherwise. Yesterday I purposefully closed all my clients multiple times and reconnected fine on all 5 (I was installing and testing new addons and wanted clean restarts of the WoW clients).

You could try using a tool like Splashtop to be able to see your PC remotely on your phone or a Tablet to try to keep that from happening in the future. If you find something else which is better please report back...

Wow at least Faerlina already has a queue and it is not even 2:30pm Central.

That bites and my understanding is that it shouldn't do that.

I have DC'ed many times for various reasons and thankfully never had that happen as long as I got re-logged in within around 100 seconds or so. I don't know the exact time (I have heard some folk say 2 minutes) but it does put you back in queue pretty quickly. There can be times where you have DCed and your client just doesn't know it and that would likely start the clock on the server side making things really tight to get logged back in on all clients.
