This is a multi-server stress test so players will be able to log into different servers if one of them becomes full.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Because this event is part of a Stress Test you are likely to experience performance issues including lag, disconnects, slow overall performance, and longer than usual login queues. These issues are an expected part of a Stress Test and provide valuable data to help us improve later versions of the game.
