Blizzard have detailed the reason behind this week's extended maintenance, and clarified it may taken even longer than the allotted 8 hours, but might also be shorter. While this doesn't explicitly rule out patch 10.2.6, it does seem less likely.

In our Americas, EU, and Asia regions this week, we’ve planned for an estimated 8 hours of downtime to do some critical server infrastructure improvements to our Network File System (NFS).

At this time, the 8 hour window is just an estimate, and we can’t determine in advance how much time it’s going to take with much certainty. While we hope that NFS updates won’t take the full 8 hours, we have to allow for the scenario where the update processes take much longer than expected.

We’ll let you know during maintenance tomorrow if it looks like it’s going to go long.

So don't expect to be playing much tomorrow...

IMO understandable reason for an extra downtime

Wasn't inferring it was a bad reason. I just don't think they will be finished in the indicated time frame.

      A Preview of Underground Spider Mounts in the War Within
      By Staff
      If you find the Mad Merchant's spider mount too pricey, you'll be happy to hear that new spider mounts will be added in the War Within expansion.

      Green

      Red

      Yellow

      If you're afraid of spiders, there's a new "Arachnophobia Mode" you can turn on in the War Within that transforms all spider creatures and mounts into crabs.

      Two Bullions from the Weekly Bonus Event Quest This Week?
      By Stan
      While we can't be 100% certain yet, this week's bonus event quest may award 2 bullions!
      The Dungeon Bonus Event will go live this week, featuring the Emissary of War quest. This quest challenges players to complete 4 Mythic Dungeons and is expected to reward 2 Antique Bronze Bullions—enough for a guaranteed piece of loot from the vendors just for completing the quest.
      However, remember that this information originates from PTR testing, and the quest rewards may have been adjusted with the start of Season 4. We'll be able to tell you more tomorrow at reset time!

      4.3 Billion Arena Rating Visual Bug
      By Stan
      Here's an amusing glitch from the live servers that causes one particular player to see an Arena Rating of 4.3 billion.
      Gubigubi posted a screenshot from the Statistics tab in the retail version, showing a 2v2 Arena Rating of 4,294,967,294, which is just shy of 4.3 billion.

      This bug has been present since Cataclysm, although the player's team rating has never actually been that high, according to the OP.
      Did you encounter a similar bug with Arena Rating?

      Interesting Observation on Khaz Algar Mural in War Within Alpha
      By Staff
      On the War Within Alpha, Haughty Chicken has made an interesting observation on a Khaz Algar mural. This post contains spoilers.
      It seems we might have a glimpse of a fifth Old God. Some theories from the community suggest that this could be Xal'atath's true form, especially since her whereabouts have been unknown since she aided N'Zoth in the Battle for Azeroth. Now she's back as a powerful villain going into the War Within expansion.
      The mural further decipts the Old God creature trying to get ahold of a crystal that is very similar to the Hallowfall one.

      Source: Twitter
      Red Shirt Guy also pointed out that the crystals in Talador share striking similarities with those in Hallowfall, noting the resemblance in their runes.
      Placeholder for tweet 1787108156155232260 What is this mysterious crystal? Could it be a Naaru vessel / crashed ship?
