It's somewhat comforting to know I'm not the only one with this problem.
For the recent discussion, see: http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=12737
We're just gonna go ahead and make our characters on Gilgamesh and see how far we get into the trial, then just factor the cost of a server transfer into the box cost of the game. Kinda sucky, but it is what it is!
