In case anyone was curious (I know I was), just ran a census on the most population SoD server on a Friday night during prime time hours.
We got 600 players, fellas!
SoD ain’t dead!

I am not sure now is best time, there is a meta where people in classic with some foreknowledge of the phases, will skip some phases of wow, like how people waited for ulda to be over as gearing in trial in wrath would be much easier. In sod people can wait for level 60 as there is plenty to do at 51-60 (more than at 50), and gear will be alot easier to get at p4 than now. Holding for the next phase is not new but it really started in wrath ulda patch and will probably see that in cata and sod now.
Examples of things that will probably help include: av, .5 quest, late game classic dungeons (aka the big dungeons), maybe cot, leveling in st, runes and reps. But for now its economically best to just do cata leveling especially if you are doing it to prepare for the panda times.
600 ppl online at anytime of day gets a big lol from me. Era prob had more ppl online
we got 601.
We got 600 people who aren’t working for a living playing? Might as well wait for people to actually get home and log in before doing a head count.
odd, Retail found a way to beat those numbers… maybe retail players are just richer and don’t need to work as much. being more successful and all.
