Thinking about taking time off- are any of you worried about stability or downtime on launch day?

I remember Dreadlands/Karnor's Castle during a big battle of...60? 80? 100? people on each side. People were desyncing left and right. That was on Red, however, which may not not have been as robust as the Blue server's hardware.
Off the top of my head, I'm pretty sure people here on the forums have predicted 2,000 to 4,000 players logging in in the early days. Even if they're divided among 11ish newbie zones, we'd be looking at 180-360 people per zone.
It's so hard to predict. Here we are 10 years after P99 started and even though many players have retired, some will return...plus the advent of the new server will have generated some amount of splash on the interwebs at large (as Zander noted,
Kotaku wrote an article about Green)...it's anyone's guess.
