PatchVex
WoW - The Big Patch is coming through and after 15 hours of downloading, aborted at about 6 this morning. I'm attempting to re-load, but since today is a long day at school (due to volunteering for a history Department project), it will be midnight before I'm home and can see whether the thing aborted again. (And the people who make my firewall - which is turned OFF - were absolutely no help with the issue. my impression is that English was not the native language of the person who was allegedly helping me.).
The upshot is that I may not be able to play Thursday (since when I left the house at 9 am, the download was claiming it would be at it for another 48 hours - 2 DAYS - or more). That's IF it doesn't abort again.
I really, really hope that Blizzard will QUICKLY come up with some other way of doing this kind of thing. (I know that phoning them will involve a 2-hr wait in the phone queue, because of the patch).
I'll update the situation tomorrow morning, but I may simply not be able to play tomorrow evening.
And no, I haven't forgotten about a blog-post about writing... it's just been a difficult week.
