If you're looking for us, we're playing under the banner "WoW Insider". My name is "insideradam", Alex Ziebart's name is "insideralex", and Amanda Miller's name is "Vehn". We'll be joined by other writers throughout the stress test. I'll also be live blogging the event in about 30 minutes from now.
If you haven't gotten on the TTR yet, I'd hurry up and do so soon. The server is stable right now, and that's a good sign. There is still delay when clicking through to buy everything from the vendors, but that's been a problem all week.
Any experiences on the TTR to report on already? Leave a comment and let us know!

I spent the better part of my Sunday on the TTR; I'm sorry to say that, other than Blizzard stress-testing the server by creating additional lag (spawning bosses, etc) on top of the over-abundance of people, I'm not quite sure I get the point of it for players other than getting to play Barbie with unlimited premades.
Because that's what a lot of people end up doing (me included), the insane lag and general disorganisation doesn't help actually getting arena matches going.
So instead we create a new lv70, enchant and gem its gear, distribute talent points and go for a couple of duels; rince, lather, repeat with another class of your choice an hour later. Note that due to lag, gemming/enchanting and especially placing talent points actually take a bigger chunk of the time than actually PvPing.

I'd actually like to know when you guys get on so I can hang around.
