It's typically american way of thinking, to follow their time schedule for maintenance in Europe, it's such an arrogant thing to do. Fortunately enough, I will be "free" this whole weekend, so hopefully I can spend quite some time playing. I really have some catching up to do... :-(

A ton of people around the world are involved in this game, keeping it running and playing it... but the majority of the big stuff is in the USA so they work on that schedule. Makes sense.
But the EU has more players =P. By default we have more gamers period because we have double the population of the US.

Or the download for the patch (if there is a patch & it's not just maint. I can never tell by the announcement text "patch maintenance...so...all inclusive) started. That'd be good.

I have the power to please one person per day. Today is not your day.
Tomorrow... Tomorrow does not look good either.
82. Victory laps after killing the dragon with my 1d2 bow is considered in poor taste.
83. My gnome does not like big butts and he cannot lie.
84. Not allowed to talk my fellow inquisitors into buying a 220lb pull crossbow.
85. Not allowed to talk my fellow inquisitors into buying an industrial strength flamethrower.
86. Not allowed to make a superhero with a 99% chance of dodging even after the -10 penalty for a successful called shot.
87. There is no such thing as a dwarven katana.
88. My bard does not get a bonus to perform if she is obviously not wearing anything under her tabard.
89. The elf's name is not Legolam.
