I live on the east coast

And I must say that I never had a game of league that was more fun than the one match I played today that was routed to the Chicago server. I live in Maryland and my ping is around 90 usually spiking to 150 at times, in this game however I had 40 ping on the Chicago server, as someone who has never played with less than 80 it was fantastic. For those east coasters like me who weren't fortunate to try it out it was excellent, I could focus totally on the game, it was super responsive, it was fluid, and I didn't have to worry about random lag spikes. Thank you Riot, for giving me a small taste of what a centralized server will do, even if it took a long time to get here.

I agree that it was rather enjoyable, but i must ask what is your ping now that the testing is over? Mine has yet to go back to 110, it's been 150 for hours now.

But now West Coasters are going through exactly what you were. Most of us not even going to see 50-60 ping ever again.
