Maybe we should pick our 2nd pick as the server to go to?

It wouldn't surprise me if they are having server issues, as that was one of the major problems in Closed Beta. There servers seem to have trouble with the amount of draw they are getting. This makes me wonder if they were not expecting this big or a crowd or a few hamsters decided to have a party, got a hang over and called off from work. >.>

I kinda like this idea too

While I'm not the sort to advocate disrupting the democratic process except when I do, it might be prudent in light of developments to call for a re-vote. We know more now than we did when the vote started, and votes were being primarily cast on the basis of which game we liked more. Our data about who was going where was being collected at the same time as the votes were being cast, and that results in a bit of chaos.
I can't say I'm expecting it, but a recall election (so to speak) might give us the chance to put together a more sober picture of the overall landscape.

Lindblum is the Kefka/Sephiroth of city names -_-

Revote!!
Or you pick Castiel!
Besides I think only a /few/ of us are in the Open Beta at this point anyhow.

A revote will put us in the same mess, we would just end up picking another "pretty" or "popular" name. If we vote on anything, I'd say we vote on investing someone with the responsibility of picking a server and discussing some pros and cons with the community :3
Re: The Quest for a Home (Server Vote) - Kejira - 09-02-2010
wouldn't mind a Revote
Or that Castie Pick.
Re: The Quest for a Home (Server Vote) - Nikolai - 09-02-2010
I don't think I've heard of any larger groups going to Kashuan, Gysahl, or Istory, so any one of those three would be ideal, no?
EDIT: Can anyone in beta check out the populations of those servers? I'm in class atm. D:

Or we go with the lowest server with the most less votes!
Re: The Quest for a Home (Server Vote) - Rhio - 09-02-2010
Mysidia and Lindblum are still missing. Figaro is back.

Yeah I believe that's how Eorzeapedia did it--they voted on who would select the server for them. Still a vote, but with far less mess and hassle.
