THIS SUCKS

My mid-west, USA town has lost alot of power due to the after effects of Hurricane Ike! They are saying it might take 2-4 days to return power to everyone.
I'm missing out on WAR head start because of a Hurricane, and I live 12-15 hours away from the ocean! 
THIS SUCKS!
Good luck in the game guys, hope its fun so far. BTW, when does the regular pre order head start begin?, not the CE head start. Just curious on how much time I'm gonna miss out on.

SE Headstart is Tuesday the 16th.
Don't know the time yet.
Uh if your posting here why can't you play war?? the SE head start begins tomorrow
As far as I know the pre-order started before the weekend and will end on the 18th since that is the day of official release, at least here in the UK it is anyway.
Ouch! That does suck dude - I feel your pain!
I hope you get your power back sharpish
To wank, or not to wank. The ultimate MMO sacrifice.
That does suck. On the upshot, a least you should be spared a great deal of the initial rush in the lowbie areas when you do get into the game. That might make for a smoother experience than jumping in there with thousands of others on day 1.
Frankly, as smuch as I love Warhammer Online, they didn't waste too much geography on the lower level content people will quickly grind their way through. It's a good idea - Mythic knows better than most that htose lower level areas are just wasted space later on. However, it also means we're going to be stomping hard all over eachothers toes on the opening days because there's simply not that many mobs to go around.
Fortunately for me my work place power is NOT out, so I am able to go to work but not play video games when I go home LOL. Totally screwed. Thats cool SE head start is Tuesday, theres hope they might get the lights back on before then... we'll see.
dude just load up the WAR dics on ur work comp and dont go home. say ur doing over time or something rofl.
My power was off the entire day yesterday due to storms caused by that bloody thing.
I live in OHIO.
I'd've been pissed if I had the CE preorder.
EDIT and to answer your question, Tuesday the 16th for sure. Current rumor puts the time at around 7am eastern.
Thats why I love Colorado. I only really have to worry about Blizzards and a tornado here and there. Hurricanes dont effect us at all really.
I used to know a few folks that lived in florida, I totally feel for you folks that live on the hurricane belt.
Sorry to hear you can't join the fun m8
Why not just get a little backup generator for cases such as this? Good to have now and in the future for at least the computer.
I live in South FL
Hurricanes havent been so bad in the past few years for florida, most of them blow alot of air but as soon as they get near the coast they usually head into the gulf of mexico
I wanna move to NC though
I love the mountains and cheap housing prices up there

dammit, it's not fair at all for the people that live in southeastern Texas ( i live up north, thankfully ^^). I think they deserve a little boost or reward from Mythic for their missed opportunity of a headstart.
To Crybabies: Uhm...if a game pisses you off, don't play it - duh.

I wonder if that'd actually work. Even if you brought up your computer, I suspect your ISP or something between it wouldn't have power.
i'm from florida? what can i say? alteast its only 2-4 days and not 2-4 weeks.
I'm confused. Galveston is trashed and you are worried about missing out on game time? Games are fun but at least you still have a house.
