There's almost no Euros there, I checked online at 2amESt and there were 0 people 4 days ago. Yesterday when I got on there were 150+. It's funny seeing everyone's mentalities shift when something threatening to their server pop comes along.

They wont even need a huge pop to start on a fresh server, everyone will be in a small group of zones for a few weeks. Once the crowd gets to 20-30 it will be interesting to see how thin the pop spreads amongst the multitude of places to go, and then even more so once you're high enough level for Velious content.

I'm trying it; if you ask me P99 has held off on Velious for so long because it's the end of this server forever, not because of server-end work to be done. And as long as there's one more chapter in the Game of Pixels, everyone will wait to read. Once Velious is released, raided to death, you'll see the TMO/FE/BDA crowd start leaving. I suspect a lot of P99 will come here (Sleeper) until Velious is avaliable here, then return where they left off.
