They open up transfers during their office hours so they can properly monitor the transfers. Something went wrong with Riddermark last week, and they were there to notice it, fix it, and bring it back online within the hour. They don't have the personnel to have fully staffed shifts for all time zones. Also, be grateful that EU servers are on Monday. On the US they will have to wait till Tuesday for the next transfer. ;)
Well, if you are worried about that, or if your computer does not contain any other games to play while you wait, you could consider starting the transfer at your midnight, or whenever it is you usually go to bed. Then, get up 15 minutes earlier the next morning, log on again, and transfer anything else you need to transfer. Then the transfers happen when you sleep, or when you go to work or school.Quote:
I loose allot of gaming time since I have to move my main who is kin leader first of all. Meaning up to 6 our no gaming tonight..:(
But thanks for your input Vovo.:)
Also, it seems that transfers have sped up. They may have allocated more resources, and splitting up EU servers and US servers by one day probably has helped a lot. It seems that transfers don't take 6 hours anymore, but more like 1 hour at most. So do it when you have your dinner. :)
Never mind me, I am just eager to be done.. And scared that some kinnies might jump ship before I am done..
I hope all will be fine and that the resources on the new server will make the game more fun to play again.. Also LOTS more people to interact with..:)
Anyone know if lag is bad and so on in the remaining worlds?
FYI: I just initialized my first transfer.. Main + shared storage + houseinventory + kinhouse inventory I guess is in cyberspace..
Congrats on your transfer :)Quote:

I don't know about the lag on your destination world, but Evernight seems to have very similar login numbers to Brandywine.
Where to transfer from Dwarrowdelf? Landy perhaps? I like moors and PvMP. Please help! Thanks :-)
I *hear* that Gladden got quite a few PVP-people from transfers so far, but I've not followed that specifically.Quote:

Transferred my toon from Firefoot to Arkenstone no problem!! Do have a question however --
I currently made 4 toons on Arkenstone as "placeholders" for my current toons on Windfola -- When it comes time to transfer over, can I simply transfer my Windfola toons over, delete the "placeholders" on Ark, then rename my Windfola toons to original names without the -1??
I believe that that is how it works. The toons with the -1, should be getting a rename token.Quote:

It takes some time but I like the feeling of safety which comes with it.
Yes - there's less chance of losing the name the way you describe than if you were to delete the placeholder first and then transfer. The name availability after you delete a character is immediate, and the transfer may not be -- although my transfers from Eldar yesterday were finished even before I got my mail open to watch for the confirmation!Quote:

Transferred my Kinship leader with shared data from Firefoot to Landroval today, got the email saying transfer was completed successfully. My concern is that now the escrow broker (Landroval) refuses to acknowledge my existence. Does anyone know if this is just a lag in transfer or do I need to submit a ticket? Thanks!
Do you own a personal house? I think everything, including kin stuff, gets stuffed in your personal housing chest. As soon as you purchase a personal house, the escrow broker isn't used.Quote:

Thank you kindly for your replies
Transfers between Landroval (a US server) and Laurelin (an EU one) haven't been and -per official word- will not be possible, sorry :(
hi - if riddermark went 9/29, and firefoot 10/6, can one assume that nimrodel will go 10/13, windfola 10/20, and imladris 10/27?
That's likely enough that you could plan for it, but not guaranteed. Some glitch could appear which delays the schedule.Quote:

I will most likely delete the toons I can not transfer to the 2 servers I am consolidating toons to.
It will waste hundreds of mithiril coins, hundreds of gold coins and so on, but it will keep me from being tempted to login on them thus saving me time.
Well, if that is your plan, perhaps you can find someone to pass your loot to before deleting. At least then the gold will not go to waste. :)Quote:
