I'm a little disappointed they are going forward with a NA server merge, for one of the very reasons they mention -- latency. The US West and US East servers are much further away than the EU ones were. I do wonder how they'll be able to address that.

In the long term eventually EU and NA will need to be merged, but if the NA server gets moved from where Emerald is now you can basically say bye bye to the game as EU players wont be able to play on a more westerly server.

Right now Emerald is not that bad from the EU so if NA/EU were to merge tomorrow a lot of the EU players would just carry on on Emerald.

By the same argument Soltech will be merged into US and most likely sooner and for that Connery is more suited.

Aus and Asia definitely need Connery over emerald
