Tomorrow: Unofficial Oceanic Server Selection

Tomorrow, for better or worse, the bulk of the Oceanic community is going to vote on an unofficial oceanic Aion server.

10pm NZST / 8pm AEST / 7:30 ACST / 6pm AWST (and Singapore)

Each Oceanic Legion registered in the committed legions thread will have one vote. The vote will be held in the #AionAus IRC channel (mibbit).

The event is somewhat controversial, mainly due to the main organiser's handling of the vote. Currently he is in favour of voting for an ultra-high population server and there is speculation that not all listed Aion servers will make it to the vote. There is much debate over whether the oceanic community would be better off with another "Blackrock". On the other side of the fence are a lot of WAR veterans, bitter over the collapse of that game's oceanic servers, keen not to see a history repeat. Some legions are listed as committed, but will ultimately go with what they feel will be best for them, mitigating the impact of the vote to some extent.

Tomorrow, for better or worse, it's worth taking part in aion history. :)

  1. If your referring to Zim wanting an "ultra-high" pop server, then i would have to say you are wrong. Zim will likely be voting for a server 3-4 spots down the list. poulated - yes. ultra high pop - no.
