Yes, but "this week" doesn't mean Tuesday. It could happen anytime. Soon™.
True, I just didn't want the OP (or anyone else) to conflate the two ideas.
It's possible that one of the changes will be activating the "create account" button.
It's also possible that some premium and old free accounts will not become active by Tuesday. Conversion of old accounts and creation of new ones would be unrelated.
I am still betting on Wednesday at the earliest, to allow for problems showing up from the publish on Tuesday. Thursday wouldn't surprise me. But Friday would be too late, unless there were some big problems from the publish.

Oh, if we're assuming, we should go for the gusto. I'm assuming that VIP players will be getting Nemesis Ponies.
But since I like to speculate, should we assume this is Freedom going completely live?

Nope. Premium accounts were being activated systematically and MAY be finished by now. Free accounts don't exist yet.

We will honor the past, and fight to the last, it will be a good way to die...
Is scheduled for 6 hours, with patch notes, as usual, only available after...
But since I like to speculate, should we assume this is Freedom going completely live? In other words, will Premium and Free accounts be active tomorrow?
