Is everybody rolling on Gilgamesh?  I've been seeing a lot of surveys on a few web sites and Gilga is going to be the most populated.  I don't mind popular servers, but If I have a hour or two queue times I might just switch to a different server.

Didn't know Kripparrian was going to be on Leviathan let alone playing FF14.  Interesting, thanks for the info.
