New EU PvE Realm: Saurfang

Thundgot over on the EU forums announced today that there is a new EU PvE server opening named Saurfang. It will be an English based server in the Misery battlegroup.
As with most new servers, migration will not be allowed to it for the first 90 days. That means you can't transfer your characters there just yet. For now, Death Knight creation is only possible when you have a level 55 character on Saurfang itself. That restriction will be lifted after the 90 days pass.
The realm became open for play just a short time ago, so if you're in the EU and want some new server goodness, head over there now and get started.

Lol I appreciate the futurama reference.

Yes, it's a futurama reference, but Adam missed one thing: the professor only says "good news everyone!" when he sends his crew to suicidal or just absolutely psycotic missions ^^

@Meira
Why do you think they called it Saurfang.. :)

If *this* doesn't drag some horde players away from Magtheridon, I don't know what will.

This won't drag people away from Magtheridon purely because it is yet another PvE server.
A brand new PvP server is what EU needs. People won't just migrate their characters from the ridiculously full ones to a low population server, but I believe they would consider it for a brand new one.
I think it has been about 2 years since they actually made a new one and I can't see them releasing one anytime soon... sadly :(

Why hasn't anyone mentioned that this is the best server name ever? :

Because it would be like saying what color an orange is.
kozom Jan 30th 2009 2:55PM

"Let's get this new server on the road! Leveling gloves, leveling goggles, leveling thong..."

Insert cleave joke here.

Just rolled Alliance on here, good crowd already in Elwynn. Apparently it's been open since 15:00 server time and there is already a multiboxer with some 'toons at level 25 by 22:00 server time.

There is a ocianic server named Saurfang (us for everyone else int he world).
But its on Eastcoast of Australias timezone (+10). And has a mostly Australians playing on it.
Is there a reason why they would give 2 servers the same name?
Lemons Jan 30th 2009 6:07PM
Because the name Saurfang was too awesome for just one.
Muse Jan 30th 2009 7:41PM
Several names are used twice or more. Nothing to it.
Max Jan 30th 2009 6:44PM
Props for the futurama reference
