repost thanks to WoW.com's brilliant comment system!

i'm curious to know how many users were effected by the outage that resulted in the creation of the death knights, as a percentage. With 11 million users or so worldwide, maybe 1 million users were effected by the outage( less than 10 percent, which i think is a reasonable guess) and of those 1 million only 70,000 created DK's? that's what, 7 percent? Not such an unreasonable guess that less then 1 in 10 people got bored enough to roll a DK on another realm. Granted i pulled these numbers out of thin air, but i'd be very interested to know the real numbers. If they resemble anything like what i just guessed at, its really not all that surprising of a number.
