Im getting the "Launcher cannot obtain patching information.." message when I try to log my client and the WoW site is down. I didnt see any notes on maintenance today. Did I miss it?

I don`t know myself right now since I am not at home, but whenever there is a hotfix or something like that, my firewall asks me if I am allowed to let the newly edited .exe through. If I don´t hit the button or miss it somehow, wow will be blocked.

What region (and server) are you connecting to? Maybe somebody here is in that zone of yours too happy

That message does throw me off too...usually you can log in past that and get the empty server screens.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

I just introduced my roomate to WoW last night. He got up this morning all eager to play. I sat watching him for a good twenty minutes as he tried endlessly to figure out why the game was not launching for him; wondering how many other people do this every week. Good ol' Tuesdays.

The difference is that during the normal downtime, the launcher usually still works (runs), this was not the case yesterday.
