Made another in the NY datacenter and it was created instantly. Must be something to do with capacity in the Netherlands.

They probably did it so I'd stop complaining... and I also already have a lot of stuff with them, we do all of our staging and so forth from there. You know those people that never shut the hell up when things go wrong? Yeah, I'm one of those.

Thank you for the follow up on this issue. After closer review, it appears the build failed to complete. This resulted in the droplet not being created. You will want to re-attempt creating the droplet. If you have any further questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to let us know.

Okay, started over and managed to make the Dutch FreeBSD instance now.
