Wow.

You can't get more wholesomely weepy for Eurovision song contest can you?

Would anyone care to provide a translation.

Eurovision Song Contest 2013 Semi-Final (2)
Iceland (RÚV)

I AM ALIVE

I set out upon that long journey
I walked on lost and restless
Didn't think about anything until the following day.
I chose peace and tranquility.
I am alive, I am alive
I glide above every hardship
I am alive, I am alive
When the winds turn against me

I climb over the high mountains
I am alive, I am alive
I didn't understand about love, which can move everything
Didn't dare to embrace and to simply exist
I felt like I didn't deserve to open up my mind
And let the bright love enter within

I am alive, I am alive
I glide above every hardship
I am alive, I am alive
When the winds turn against me
I climb over the high mountains
I'm alive, I'm alive because of you

And I believe it
Yes I do believe it

Perhaps the wondrous gates of heaven will open
Beautiful love will flood out
to embrace me alone
I'm alive, I'm alive
I glide over every difficulty
I am alive, I am alive

When the winds turn against me
I climb over the high mountains
I am alive, I am alive because of you
I am alive, I am alive, I am alive

We apologize for the inconvenience this causes.

Further updates to the situation will be posted here.

UPDATE 11:45 UTC: A further downtime extension until 12:00 UTC is needed while we sort out these difficulties. We apologize once again for the inconvenience.

UPDATE 12:00 UTC: It seems that Iceland's advancement into the Eurovision grand finals has put the cluster into an absolutely unmanageable state. While we try to get the hamsters into line, we must extend downtime by a further 30 minutes. Our sincerest apologies for this situation, we want this to go smooth as much as you guys.



OK, all you people winging like bitches out there, seriously!! harden the fk up guys!
CCP would have to be the ONLY MMO provider i know of in EXISTANCE, that actually work to Fix problems IN REAL TIME!

You name 1 other company that give you on the fly updates as to what is going on ... go on i dare you ...
Stop being so damn selfish, we just got a damn gift from CCP, they didnt have to, but they gave us one anyways!!

ok did some research, we are on hold because Iceland has moved in to the semi finals of a international competition that is basically "The Voice" combined with the Olympics.
Congrats to Iceland on reaching the Semi finials.
Now seriously bodge another cable in the interstellar transmitter array and reroute that connection so we can get back to internet spaceships
You know it is serious business!

It's really not down. It's a special group of players that are allowed to play while the rest of us sit and wait. You need to upgrade to a platinum account.


I do believe you mean you need to sign up for Dual Character training, those people are the ones who are currently online :)
