This evening, starting at 8 PM Eastern time and going until 11 PM, will be the DDO stress test party! Turbine has some new hardware that they're looking to push to the limits, and to do that you need people. Lots of people.
The stress test will be occuring on the new Lamannia server, which requires a different client than the usual one. This also requires that you be enrolled in the Dungeons and Dragons Online: Eberron Unlimited beta test. The full instructions on what all of that means can be found over at the DDO forums, however, so you're not left entirely in the dark.
Staying online gives you more chances to win one of the five ATI cards, or perhaps one of the ten DDO posters signed by the development team. Even if you don't win, there's still going to be sneak peeks at some of the new stuff coming to DDO and you can have a fun night with friends. Many friends. Lots and lots of friends. All packed into one server. Fun times!

It absolutely rocked last night - I finally got my client installed and patched by half past midnight (Kraków time!), and didn't stop untill 4am. Now I'm dying at work... dying to go home and play some more!

Neurotic, are you Polish? :) What's you character's name?
We're creating a Polish guild now on beta, and will be moving to Thelanis server after launch (most EU folks play there).
Check out this site:

This will be new D&D Online site for Polish players.

Damn, getting new computer parts tonight :/ Oh well, maybe I'll be done in time with assembly to take a look.

Judging from the timestamp on the comment, the stress test was the night before you posted, so take your time with the computer parts.
Still check out the Beta when you can, though, as they said there will be another sale on points some time this week. (The "lightning" sales during the stress test lasted for only a couple of minutes, so either hope they expand the window or hope for very good timing if you want to buy then. :) )

Hey Sarr, the Reply button seems to have vanished... Niestety nie, I'm English, but I live here permanently with my Polish wife and two misious. If you don't mind my terrible written Polish, I'd love to get together with ty i twój załogi sometime.
I'm Robinette Broadhead in-game - lvl 1 Fighter. I like melee characters mostly, but when we go live, I'm going to roll a Cleric too.
pozdrawiam!
