Details:
- was in Brittany Graveyard
- rift was pointed to Blood River
- entered rift
- saw a message like "This instance is not accepting new players" (message wasn't get saved in chat log and wasn't shown long enough for me to memorize it)
- was then kicked to Novia
- got stuck at 51% waiting for character to leave previous scene, waited maybe 30-60 seconds
- killed client with task manager
- logged back in, was able to Resume to Brittany Graveyard (the smaller resume window, as though the 20 second exit timeout hadn't ended)

I'm not sure why it wasn't letting me into Blood River, that should have been a regular adventuring scene and put me in a fresh instance if necessary. And then it apparently wasn't bumping me to Novia properly.
