US Connected Realms update for July 18
The list of US realms slated for the Realm Connection service has been updated with new dates and new planned connections. If you are on a realm that is scheduled to be connected, be aware that Realm Connections take place on Thursdays rather than during Tuesday maintenance. Scheduled realms are brought down at approximately 5am PDT, and back up at approximately 1pm PDT. And just in case you're wondering what exactly this Realm Connection process will do for you, the player, Blizzard has a handy blog on the subject that explains things in detail.
The following US realms are scheduled for connection on Thursday, July 24.
Deathwing and Executus, Kalecgos, and Shattered Halls
Gilneas and Elune
The following US realms have been scheduled for connection on Thursday, July 31.
Malfurion and Trollbane

The US realms listed below don't currently have a scheduled connection date, but they've been added to the list of future realm connections.
Shadowmoon and Detheroc
If you're on a low-population realm, but not on the above list, keep in mind that realm connections are an ongoing process, and you may see your realm added to the list over the next several weeks. Also keep in mind that planned connections may change at any time, but Blizzard will keep us updated on changes -- realms may be added or removed from the list at any point in time. For the full list of realms that have been connected so far, check the official site.
