My live characters not available on PTS?

Hi again,

Sorry to appear such a noob, I have finally managed to d/load and log in to the PTS, but none of my live chars are there (though i understand that ZOS notified in October that they had copied all the live chars over) - is this because I didn't have the PTS installed then? Or should I be able to access them regardless?

Everytime I access the PTS, all I get is the new char creation screen, and none of my existing chars appear. If I am just wasting my time due to the fact that I have only just d/loaded the PTS, then I will sack it off, but could anyone clarify for me please?

many thanks

    Are you on EU? EU characters haven't been copied yet.

    They copy one megaserver over at a time. It looks like at the last minute they decided to go NA, but according to Gina, they'll switch to EU in about a week.

    Ah right, thanks! It was this post from October that had me confused:

    We've completed copying over all the characters from the North American and European megaservers to the PTS. From here on out, you'll be able to access your NA and EU megaserver characters on the PTS.

    So I take it that the above announcement from Gina isn't right then? Or something has changed that I didn't pick up on?

    Are you EU or NA? NA characters were copied over yesterday morning. NA characters will be deleted on PTS and EU characters will be copied over in the next week or two. Can't have both NA and EU characters at same time. Would cause problems with duplicate character names and duplicate database keys and things like that.
