Greetings,

To resolve and prevent an issue with some servers experiencing stability issues we are restarting all shards for a brief update at 1:30PM EDT. We anticipate all shards to be online by 2:30PM EDT, including Catskill and Legacy which are currently offline.

We once again thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Is that Catskills and Legends?

 

[Viquire]

They can't even crash the server on time. Sheesh.

we are restarting all shards for a brief update at 1:30PM EDT. We anticipate all shards to be online by 2:30PM EDT,

So somewhere between 1:00 and 1:30 all shards, including one nobody has heard of, will be going down.

A little more attention to detail would be really appreciated, you know - just out of basic respect for the readers if nothing else.... rolleyes:

 

[Old Man of UO]

It's TheGrimmOmen's fault. He was out rubbing the bellies of the ancient hell hounds and all the servers rolled over!

[Green Mouser]

So what will happen first: Legends up NLT 2 pm east or Shards down at 1 and back up at 130 or maybe shards down at 130 up by 230?

Seems more likely I will be back at work tomorrow than any reliable technical performances happening by the Mythic Team today.

 

[G.v.P]

when is 1:30, again?

 

[Kylie Kinslayer]

including Catskill and Legacy

LOL!

Don't know which is worse, that or this message we got when TC1 was full as they took servers offline last night....

 

[James_Mythic]

Apologies for the Legends/Legacy, I was in the process of writing other documents where the word Legacy was used and apparently it slipped out, it wasn't until I just re-read it that I realized that it in fact said Legacy not Legends.

Thanks all, servers will be online shortly

 

[Kylie Kinslayer]

Not a problem, just have a much need laugh at your expense is all

Thanks
