Not exactly. They have been collecting data from LHC since it's inception about the Higgs-Boson. They will not be able to confirm or deny the existence of the particle for at least another year. Basically all they know is that if it does exist, it would be within a certain mass range.

I agree 100%. I likely won't be in until tomorrow, much of my guild is in already. Some guy in another thread told me that my guild mates should stop leveling their level 20 toons when I get in and start new toons to help me level up to 20, and then switch back. That's the most unrealistic pile of crap I've ever heard. Not only would it never happen, but I wouldn't even want them to do that, it would be completely unfair to them. The fact of the matter is that I will likely be stuck leveling by myself listening to all my friends on vent talk about how much fun they are having together all week.

I'm pretty sure that 99% of the people who will be getting ToR on the 20th pre-ordered it. I can't think of many people who would be so excited to get in on day one of an MMO that they decide not to pre-order it. Anyway, the game has been launched. The 20th is merely the day they start deducting time from your 30 day subscription.

There is no basis for claiming the ratio between physical and digital copies of Rift is equal to ToR.

It's completely fair. The only problem I have with it is is that it alienates friends/guild mates from each other. For example a bunch of my friends are in already, whereas I doubt I will get in at all today. Obviously they aren't going to wait for me, and I don't expect them to, but it really sucks that we will all be staggered in levels until 50. Some of us may even end up leveling alone completely. I don't think there is really a better way to do early access if it has to be in waves though, so whatever. Allowing everyone in at once probably would have been fine considering a lot of people may be at work or school or whatever. Oh well. Hopefully I will get in around the same time as someone I know.

So I take this to mean if you didn't register your code in July you should check back tomorrow?
