Unfortunately release day and the week or two right after are usually plagued with a ton of downtime. The patch for the patch that fixed the patch of the patch to the patch patching the patch patches on the patch for the patch to the patch of the post release patch patch on the release.
Granted it hasn't been quite that bad with the last release or two, but historically it was nightmare time...hmmm...nightmares...fits with HoT's theme...omg...a return to patching hell??? hehehe...

While a great idea, I have a major project at work nearing release around that time (no, I don't work for SOE, it's not THAT project). I think I'll actually have less time to play until the middle of November. Unless this other job thing pans out, in which case I'll be giving this job the one finger salute and they can finish this required-by-law project on their own. Not that I'm bitter.
