Grats, have fun :)
lol im super jealous, im not gonna be able to get that for a few days :P
I'm at 15%
It doesn't go on sale here (Arizona) for another hour or so.
However I loaded up the online installer, and it's cruising along at about 1 MB per second! I'm shocked a Blizzard downloader would be that fast on launch night! Anyway, I'm at about 70% downloaded, so I should have it installed in 15 minutes, then when I pick up my copy at midnight all I need is the upgrade key.
Can't wait!
yeah game installed, patch at 34% surprisingly fast for Blizz

grats on all the raid kills, im jealous
I went down to Best Buy to see if they had any extra copies laying around after all the pre orders were done. I walked in and the first question asked of me was "Do you have a pre-order?" I replied in the negative and then he said "Would you like the Collector's Edition or the normal?" A bit taken aback by events, I said I'd like the CE if possible. He reached behind him and grabbed a slip of paper for the CE. Before I could head to the back of the line, though, he called over another associate and had me rung up seperately. "The line is for preorders, Jen will check you out over there." Wow, I get to skip the line even. Cool. =)
Yay for gift cards so the CE was nearly free. Yay for Best Buy ordering more than initial demand. Now to get on with installation!
Me and Duratya outside Walmart where i got the collectors edition. It was quickly on the laptop on the way home.
Also, my friend borrowed power from a gamestop to install his.
the one guy brave enough to actually speak to me in line asked me if I was there picking up my boyfriends copy... ]:D
It was funny, there were 6 of us in line, and there were 4 people in front of us. 2 since 7pm, 2 since 9pm, we arrived around 10. By midnight there were atleast 30 people in line inside the store at Walmart, of all places. Who knew.
Since I'm stuck here at work, I sent my man to the store to pick me up a copy. He said there was about 20 people ahead of him when he got there half an hour before midnight, and when the place got within 10 minutes of opening, a good 40 or so more people showed up.. some of them dressed up in home made gear. He said he tried to get me a collectors edition, but they wouldn't sell him one because we didn't pre-order it. iFail.
This means I will have to follow you CEers around and covet your Frostys.
Oh and one other thing.. if anyone is planning on going to GameStop to pick up their copy anytime soon you may want to bring cash with you. There's some sort of issue going on with their credit card machines. When my fiancee went, they were having to do paper credit card orders and it slowed things up pretty good, but they were still taking them. We live in Kansas City.

so I go to bed about 1:30 because the game is still installing and I have to get up early as it is, figure I'll have 1/2 hr to play when i get up. Ha dam patch tp download already :'( :'(
It's not so much a patch as having the box version of Wrath catch up from 3.0 to 3.03 where we are now... unless we all want to play with un-nerfed rets again ;)
Got mine Tuesday night...went to some 7-11 a few blocks away, no line whatsoever, took about 10 minutes with the drive there and back ]:D
I hate UPS.
Target opened at 8am today - I was there at 8:05.
They had hundreds on the shelf.
i created a death knight. orc by the name of Ackerly (or ley cant remember)
i cannot figure out for the life of me how their talent tree works
Target in my area had piles of the normal version and lots of the collector's edition version available. with work and other stuff i will likely be on sometime tomorrow.

Shadow procedes to devore your soul!

Wish i could say that i got my copy.... unfortunately, WoTLK would probably jeopardize my chances of success for the course i am on until december 20th... :-[
Looks like there are still tons of Collector's Editions around here, so if anyone is interested and can't get one through usual channels, let me know and I'll hook you up.

(PS: for those who dig the soundtrack, there are 3 songs on iTunes that aren't on the Collector's CD...)
I think Kaj wanted one, she was going to see if it was possible near her today last I spoke with her.
6:30 pm, zero people in line, piles of inventory blocking the isle of new wow boxes, i climb through, pick up one, see a poor soul like me on the way out unable to locate a copy - i hand it off, no words spoken, and dive back in
Good point Oil. How long did some people wait at the midnight launch?
I went into my local Fry's at 9:30 a.m. and from my Jeep, picking it up (tons of copies in the front of the store), paying, and getting back to my jeep took about 5 minutes.

As far as i know out of the 4 places around here there all sold out not sure if im just going to get the 40$ one or try to get the 80$ one or not gatta see this paycheck which is the most annoing part of it all but i was told to check in the next few days for the ones who have yet to pick up there copies and last i check there still there hehe
but hey as long as i can get any wrath copy ill be happy :)
CE is only $69, at least it was for me, idk elsewhere, I thought the price was standardized.
$69 for me as well, but because the package is so large (and I expediated shipping), the total came to about $85. Still not terrible, just more than it would've been had I stood in line with the rest of the world.
