Is anyone else feeling the ever-building excitement/anxiety about booking time off work for release?

I check for release date news several times a day to make sure the moment we have confirmation I can submit a holiday request at work!
I've got one holiday booked for the end of June and knowing my luck it will release whilst I'm away.

I guess I could always try play WoW on a beach ...'insert Anakin sand meme here'...

I work one month on one off at sea, and I’ve got a huge college phase coming up which lasts from mid april until August so I’m probably fucked anyway.

teebling as long as we're on the same server I'll always have time to run dungeons / boost you mate! Least I can do for the epic work you have done and continue to do with the site!

I'm planning a 3 week no-life leveling plan on release so hopefully have 2-3 60's at your disposal!

Unless I decide to betray the horde...

I work a pretty standard 36 hours per week job, with flexible working hours, here in the UK. I will probably look to book a couple of days off around launch once the date is known.

I'm not going on holiday so I have to use my leave somewhere.

We'll see. The idea is tempting. :biggrin:

Kinda hard to say, seeing as we do not have an exact release date yet. If I get lucky the release will fall right on my university vacation...if not, it will release right before that during exam time T.T

I only work 5 hours a day but i cant take holidays and im also in the middle of doing my degree project, so the gods know how will I make time for Classic, but I guess its the same for most of us xD

All I know is that it will (hopefully) be worth it.

I've got 3 weeks of vacation time this year, and one of them might have to be used for Classic.

I'm just a lowly university student taking an additional 5 classes during the summer and working so I'm kinda screwed. But I suppose that's what Monsters and Tim Horton's are for, right?

I have planned on taking 5 days off so I could no life it for a week. We will see what happens when a date is released!

I'm hoping to take a day or 2 off at release. I don't think I'm going to take the first day off, might not even do the first week. Don't want to spend my time off praying for the servers to stabilize.

I'm not going to play on release or even the following 2 weeks at least because of the possibility of sharding. I work 3 12-hour shifts a week, so I'll already have quite a bit of time to play without actually taking time off. At the moment, I've got roughly 8 shifts worth of PTO saved, but we're required to request time off 3 to 6 months in advance, which is annoying.

This is a good point. Like most expansions, the first few days of BFA were torture, the game was so hard to play due to instability. And for that, I DID take like 3 days off work so...

Stay Horde. We don't have gnomes in our faction. And we have a bunch of spikes on buildings to look scary.
