All of the latest Mists of Pandaria news"Emergency" rolling restarts

Logging on and playing might be rather difficult. All US servers are undergoing what now appears to be multiple restarts (Eldre'Thalas has restarted twice in the last 30 minutes).The logon announcement tells us that the process will take two hours, and each realm will be down for about 15 minutes.
Ideally this won't be something that impacts the game too long. And dang nabit, it better not, because yours truly has a lot of free time this weekend he plans to use leveling up his Shaman.
While the servers are down, why not check out WoW Insider's Guide to Patch 3.1? It'll at least keep you wowified for the time being.
And if the servers do stay down for too long this weekend, I just want to let our Editor-in-Chief Elizabeth Harper know that I'm going to join Alex in playing Warhammer.

Looks like our battlegroup just went offline. Isolated reports of users able to log in while others could not. Waiting for them to come back up and try again.

We got the 15 minute warning just after starting Culling. We were making great time, with more than enough left to get to the Infinite Corruptor. DC'ed JUST after the third boss, and when we came back we didn't have the timer anymore.

Well, just in time I guess. I'm having problems with my client on my PC and can't play, while waiting untold amounts of time for a reply from Blizzard support I've downloaded two other MMOs and played them both. lol.
