The Ingame Mail say "We will be holding a mass-test on Buckingham tomorrow, Thursday, (September 26) @ 20:00 UTC (EVE Time)."

So is the Mail wrong or the Date in the Forum?

Yeah, there is no Thursday, the 26th in September 2012. Sorry for the mistake.

Can there please be a way those of us in US EST can ever participate?

I've only ever been able to make ONE test, and it was b/c i had the day off. Then you tell ppl that in order to get those bonus SP's they need to do the mass tests, which you don't have for how many months? Then when you finally do, it is still at a time which i can't participate.

I'd love to help you test, and give you feedback you'll probly (and statiscally), but please help us out a bit.

When can we expect Buckingham to be available for patching (downloading the patch that enables the changes meant to test in this masstest)?

The Buckingham mirror is from August 10th.


Really would like a new mirror so I could participate.

Buckingham is currently down for an update, it should be up again in about 15 minutes. I'll update this post as soon as it is online.

The Launcher will display an error while Buckingham is down.

Update: Buckingham is online again.

I'm guessing this error is the "unexpected error" message box that pops up before the launcher can actually launch?

So running the repair tool like it suggested was a bad idea?

welp.

No chance, mirrors take upwards of 2-3 days.

Mirroring does not take 15 minutes, as you could imagine, a while longer.

This is indeed no new mirror, only a bug fix for missing data.

It's patching me again, so either there is a new one, or it's re-patching.

There is a small new patch. If you were repairing you will have to re-patch a bit more.

well i have watched the vids on the test of the orbital bombardment ,
and just need to state that people in eve need to see the result of the carnage on the ground from the strike ,
vice verse the dusty s need to see the ship they just shot explode.Shocked
others wise its not visceral and pushing an button to make an icon disappear just does sound fun What?
part of the appeal of pvp in eve is watching the ship explode gloating over the kill-mail and the tears in local
these need to be some how brought into the eve/dust experience other wise it will seem to disjointed for most .
