Singularity is currently capped at ~650 players to avoid too heavy time dilation during the mass test. The reason for this is, that we are mostly interested in the client behavior and graphical effects in this mass test and too much lag would disturb this.

For the case that you are trying to login, you are unable to do so because of the queue and still want skillpoints: Send an eve-mail to this character (CCP Habakuk2) at the time when you were trying to login. I will try to give you at least a part of the skill points.

A good chunk on Sisi/Tq's players are under the age of 18. Which means they are still in school. Now most people that live on the western coast won't ever be able to attend one, but for those who live on Eastern and Central time zones we can manage, although 19:00 is almost impossible. Schools get out around 3 ish, or 20:00 EvE time. If mass tests could be moved to just 20:30 or something like that. 21:00 is probably best. The later you go, the more people will show.

More americans yes, although for europeans 21:00 eve time would be around 23:00. That means that most of them will be preparing for bed, preparing their kids for bed or be too tired to attend. ;)

18:52 or rather, 4:52AM here in Australia
#96th in queue, got down to #59th in queue over the past 20-30 minutes =/

Had I known there would be so much people on I would have stayed logged on, had a super fitted and all for the masstest
If theres by any chance, I need as much skillpoints as I can to test/try out the Avatar next chance I get Straight


tristin12 was also meant to do the masstest, but of course the queue wont let him in either

Edit:
Its now 19:06 and im still 53rd in queue, theres no way im able to attend the masstest ;_;

I log into Sisi early today, update, and see I got free supers. I train the skills using the free SP, figure out a fit for a Nyx, buy modules and fit it up. I spend over an hour of my time getting ready so I can help.

Log in for the test.... And capped out.

No I do not want the SP. I got tons of Sisi SP. I want my hour back.

I was attempting to get through my crappy Internet provider today, (dropping packets every 40 seconds or so on average this afternoon), then log in to find the que...looks like i won't have to worry bout my lack of stable internet keeping me from testing today...it is yet another population cap that is preventing me from participating in an Eve thingy...

Tried to log in an hour early. was a queue. Got in after 20 minutes. used mass move me, joined fleet x. Someone checked their mic on voice coms and I got a blue screen of death. Got the computer restarted and am now #110 in the queue.

I really hope you do the right thing and award the full 2 million skill points to those that tried. SOme of use go out of our way to participate in these mass tests.

If CCP had announced its plans to have a cap of 650 players earlier than 54 minutes prior to the mass test I might have not rearranged RL commitments to participate today.

A partial skill point award would make sense if you gave fair warning about the cap which I am sure most people would agree that 54 minutes is not fair warning.

Sloppy planning = sloppy results.
