For the record, I'd bet good money this will happen well before 7am tomorrow. They're doing it early in the first place to prevent a sudden "spike" in traffic. Now to avoid the spike of people crazy enough to be awake at that hour (especially in time zones west of Virginia), it only makes sense that they'll open it 30 minutes to an hour early so that the people who are awake at that hour will come in, then the people who set their alarms will come in, then the people that wake up later will come in. Spreading things out nicely. I believe they did this exact same thing with CE.

I have a crazy meeting tomorrow at 6:30am PST with some outsourcing company in China, so I'll probably be up at 3:00am to read forums and constantly try to log in and play as much as I can before the meeting. Going to bed right after the game tonight. :)

On the one hand, they did that with CE... suddenly shifted it back an hour. I'm sure it was to reduce the sudden rush. On the other hand, I think they can handle whatever traffic east coast 7am on a Tuesday can throw at them. Its not going to be worse than CE at noon on Sunday. And they have about twice as many servers to absorb the load.
