They slow, but seems like progress.

Japan has been confirmed/signed/paid. Hardware being sent at an accelerated rate here.

We will have approximately 8,000 spots available in Tokyo. We're going to try to go in this order for allowing people to migrate to Tokyo, and will have more details in the coming week(s.) Tokyo is super expensive so we're definitely going to be pushing this one through ahead of anything else as available.

This is super unofficial, all of it may change, I'm just communicating it here to allow people to provide feedback.

1. People who filled out the survey a long time ago and picked Tokyo as a preference. This will fill about 700 of the available spots.
2. Anyone who was promised a Ryzen upgrade or purchased a pre-order/reserved space already. This will fill only a few dozen spots.
3. People who purchased a migration special will most likely allowed to be able to self-migrate early as well around this point. Potentially up to 1,000 spots filled here.
4. Anyone paying full price/MSRP for a service on our website, this might fill another 1,000 spots or so but it's a super guesstimate at this point.
5. Anyone willing to pre-order it/order it at designated sale prices, most likely at above $24 per package per year for a standard service, or biennial payment. I suspect a few hundred spots will be taken in this manner, up to a 500.
6. Anyone paying above around $22 per year for any existing service, including specials. This will most likely take out all remaining spots.

Please note, any selection in the process above will be permanent, meaning once you pick Tokyo Ryzen, you cannot migrate out of it, at least not for a while. So if your goal is to get Ryzen ASAP but you do not want that location, you are suggested against it and should just wait for your preferred location.

Let me know if I forgot anyone or if you have questions or suggestions.

It's still lingering, like a tiny hint of it being there. Mostly just the fatigue now and bursts of losing smell/taste to different degrees. I had a family member have months of the loss of taste so I wouldn't be surprised if I have the same issue. I'll definitely make the most of it and use it as an opportunity to eat healthier

Edit: although I hope the fatigue goes away ASAP, it's making it difficult not to still nap like 14 hours a day and makes it harder to push all these projects through (and I usually only sleep like 4-6 hours average. By napping I don't mean just sleeping, a lot of "breaks.")

nice

Japan!
Before NL

FrankZ

Yea, Tokyo!!

I am almost sure that one of the locations I selected on the survey was Toyko, and would still really like to get a ~1GB Tokyo vps. Problem may be that I do not have anything currently that qualifies to migrate there. Will there be an opportunity for us to buy a VPS in Tokyo at a reasonable biennial (2 year) price?

Similar situation here, 1GB for 10$ would be great. But that probably not even covering ip cost.

I was not expecting it for that low of a price. I just hope it will be competitive with other providers that sell Japan VPS, as I would prefer to buy from VirMach.

Can I request an upgrade to the Japan region for $8.88 in Phoenix?

Uhm, actually... 0.0002 is 5x smaller than 0.001... that thing, called math.
But do not let that demotivate you. Numbers, who need 'em anyways!
