Compared to week 1, reset was a lot smoother. There was still some fuckery with the borderlands opening when they shouldn't. Queue times were reasonable. That could be simply an issue of less people trying to play. We had very minimal lag as well.
Saturday night was typical with the lag as well.

I'm on Skrittsburgh and apparently the red team guys are from Mag lol

So far it has been a great argument against the restructuring. I think we are on Grenth's Door (originally a Piken Square guild) and the teamchat has become extremely toxic and full of spam (guild ads, people discovering that they can send item links, "help hills"), to the point where some in the guild have completely muted it. Oh, and obviously: Some guildmates have been placed in a different team despite selecting the guild.

Now for a bit more meta-commentary: I think the alliances kind of defeat the purpose of WvW, where you could just get an interesting battle every week, into a GvG. We already have EotM for these. Unfortunately this has made the matches completely predictable as soon as the more experienced members got an overview of what guilds we are fighting. We know when they are online and their overall tactics. That's just boring.
