14 hours.........guess I can check it out right before class starts.

I'm guessing that it's a 5 trillion ISK lottery, and that I'm the winner.

It has about the same odds as everything else, so why the hell not?

It just occurred to me that it the clock will expire while north america is at work. here's hoping we avoid disaster rather than missing awesomeness, as has happened too too many times.

It took me a while to find this "Count Down Page."

If I didn't see this posting, I wouldn't have known about the existence of the countdown.

Perhaps this countdown is related to "Community" page, but nevertheless, can we have this countdown on the MAIN EVE ONLINE PAGE?

I want to get excited. I want to see other people getting excited.

I'm going to laugh when the timer reaches zero, twitch.tv turns on, and Hilmar walks out and proceeds to describe his latest bowel movement as an epic troll. That would would be a great day.

...um.. fire?

Just over 8 hours now. Wich just happens to be 9am my time in the USA. I work 2nd shift and that just happens to be the same time my alarm clock goes off lol.

So I get to wake up in the morning with a audible alarm for this count down and finally see wtf is going on.


I just hope that it remotely lives up to the hype that we want it too lol

I nominate CCP for the "Mindfrack of the year" award in MMO's.

6 hours 45 minutes.

Grr. >.<

When that countdown runs out I'll e nowhere near a decent PC to check it out and it's just no fun on my mobile phone. Ugh

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

If we are to follow the countdown, the clock ends at 12:00 Midnight in Korean time, country where these crazy hardcore gamers reside.

Since everyone is throwing guesses around, I will throw mine.

EVE Online will make a grand announcement of its official launch in Korea.

OR

More contents will be available for us on EVE: Valkyrie.

Also it could be a countdown until eve becomes available for the PS4 and XboX One... Ugh

They are going to turn concord off in high and turn concord on in null.
