    I was on with no problems. Then went to change toons for one last crystalline run and can't get back on now. :(

    Same problem here. If it's not just me, maybe it's systemic?

    Can anyone get on? Could someone post if they're playing?

    It was running ~really slowly~ a few minutes ago, anyway. Changed my graphics settings to minimal and it was still super slow/laggy. Probably weren't quite ready to deploy that patch.

    My guess is "hope" keeps people not playing but posting on the forums. For others, its a path of sad realization and closure. Grieving takes time. The worst "haters" here love the game, or did at some point.

    I was able to log in, just like normal. But after i changed character i got the message:
    "unable to authenticate: connection to the account server timed out"

    Logging in is impossible now...

    This usually happens after every large patch. I got used to it. Just wait a few hours after a big patch before logging back in.
