37,000 registered in the first 24-hours!
Okay so we've got load balancing to help with Monday's surge of people trying to register after the Neverwinter Nights beta test announcement was made. We are currently limiting the load to 250 simultaneous users and may go up from there in the future.
It strikes me that they were totally unprepared from the number of responses that they got for the beta test.
Does anyone know if the number of 37,000 registered users really is much more than they expected? Does this bode well for the Neverwinter Nights? It might be a two edged sword. If the initial release NWN is bug ridden that many more people will be annoyed....
