I'm getting the game next week, so I should be able to get in a LOT of practice.
Very good, though it takes more than one month to become quite skilled, you can still get the basics of the game and get decent at a class.
 
The event is in about a month, as soon as everyone can come on at once, really, which is more likely to be during Christmas break where people are on vacation.

As for your first time playing the game, Soldier is a well-balanced class that has decent health, speed, and damage, so it can help teach you the basics of the game. Once you learn the basics of Soldier (and thus the game itself), you can experiment with classes and see what you like most. If I see you playing, I can help teach Soldier, since he is my best class and all.
 
also keep in mind that sniper or spy aren't very good classes for you if you lag and shit.

yeah especially since most of us stay in constant alert and movement.
