The World of Warcraft Community Site (thanks Bronco) has word on the conclusion of the closed beta testing of World of Warcraft, Blizzard's upcoming MMORPG:

The closed beta test is coming to an end. This Friday, October 29, at 3:00 PM PDT, the closed beta servers will go offline as we prepare to run another stress test. All active closed-beta accounts will remain active, and closed-beta testers will be receiving an email with instructions on what to do to continue playing in the stress test. We will post more information about the stress test in the days ahead, so please stay tuned to WorldofWarcraft.com.
