What are these threads accomplishing, really?

They accomplish a sense of community among the players. Those who can make it, will be comforted by knowing that a fair number of other players will also be left out. Knowing why some people can't make it is interesting, it gives a little insite into the lives of the co-players of this game. Of course if you don't care about the other players (as opposed to their characters) then you could always just skip the thread after learning from the first post what it's about. Personally I find it fascinating and will add in my own contribution now:

I will probably be logged in for the early part of this, and if it lasts more than a couple of hours I'll miss the rest. Hopefully my character will be safe throughout, or will be killed very early on so I can take some time before bed to calm down! So that's a hint to any staffer who wants to off my PC: Please do it in the first 2 hours, or wait for another day. Thank you everso!

Everyone can make it!  At least until the first crash.

Log in.  Set your cliant to log everything.  Go idle.

I can make it easily enough, although I doubt my character will see anything. Wrong character, wrong place, wrong time.  I'm just curious as to how many people this will draw.
