Oh, TestCentre is cool by me! I'm slowly building up a scout / ranger there but he seems to have an interest in astronomy. Well, the amount of time he spend lying on his back stargazing?Yeah..being a noob on a busy server is one thing, but being a noob and, for the most part, alone is another....I know there are places you can go to see people, but I kinda like the solitude I get by having a few friends and no l33t dudes around.
I haven't been to dantooine yet, but I have a dream that it is still close to pre-player-city pristine on TC.
Another benefit of TC.

I have a toon on TC but he is going Fencer/Doctor. Far from mastering either but still. Also, I will be offline preparing for a cross country move and prolly wont be back on til the end of August. Have fun.

I'm all about round 3. I vote for the following:
Server: Wanderhome
Rationale: Already have a Ranger there. 
Date: Sunday, August 8th
Rationale: I could make it on Saturday, but I'd only be there for an hour or so as that is the same day as the monthly LARPthat I attend. I'd have all day Sunday to rampage across whatever planet will be our destination.
That's just how I feel. Whatever the consensus is, that's where I'll be.

Reinstall which galaxies? The live game version or the TC game version? To play TC you need to install another version of galaxies into a different folder on your HD. I think it automatically does this for you when you click on the Test Center button. Do not install the TC version over your current version (if that is even possible). Just smack me if this is stuff you already know.

That is the great thing about TC, you get 3 toons on one account (4 if you unlock one of them).

It is not reinstalling your main. It's copying the files into the test center directory, a totally different and seperate install that mirrors your main install. In fact, it will copy much of the main one on the HD over (I found files I modded available in their altered state in the new directory).
Just watch where they set your install directory to, if they give you a choice (I think it's fixed, actually, to make sure you DON'T overwrite your main).

Already done hehe.
The problem is that my test center version will not download anything and tells me to reinstall star wars galaxies (the whole thing). I cant just remove the tc stuff becuase it comes up with a message that it cannot find the files, please reinstall star wars galaxies. However it does not give me the option torepair the tc files or reinstall them 
Very frustrating. I know i could fix it by uninstalling galaxies completely from my pc, then i could let it install tc again and update accordingly. But im not willing to spend a full day downloading patches hehe.
