So I had this dream that I created a new character on 11/11/11 @ exactly 11:11:00 (since account creation thank God does not log the seconds. Within one minute that is possible... Then it suddenly occurred to me that EVE will be down for scheduled upkeep from 11:00 to 11:30 on 11/11/11.

Someone please say that's not true. (But I think it is).

CCP, can you please delay the downtime for 30 minutes on 11/11/11 for me? Big smile

That bottle of little pills the doctor gave you? Yeah, those aren't optional.

I was going to say do it at 11pm but well 23:11 doesn't have the same ring. Damn I thought I was onto something.

Will probably do it at 2011/11/11 20:11:00

That just really sucks that EVE will be down at the most epic date to the minute, ever.

It does appear correct that your date of birth is to the minute not the second. I was born on 2011/10/10 at 23:59 the very last minute of that date. I guess I should have planned ahead to be born at 10:10:00 as that would have worked being only 50 minutes before downtime. -President Caldari 2011/10/26 01:22

It was a quick discussion of the ability to create a new character
on the very minute of 11/11/11 @ 11:11:00. It was determined
that characters do not have seconds included in your birthdate thus
making it somewhat easy to create a new character in that very minute.

It has yet to be determined at what minute of character creation your
birthdate is listed yet I suspect it when entering his or her name, and
will test that theory.

I do believe it is an extreme tragedy that EVE whom should be historically
active in the past and future, will be self removed from the most
paramount date in time (while certainly NOT accurate at all), that will
not happen again in this earth grounded generation.

I find it a true shame that EVE has to be offline for routine upkeep on
11/11/11 @ 11:11:11 (rounded to 11:11:00) upon character creation.

I'd actually like to head a group of people willing to support this and
petition CCP to see if they can just delay downtime for 30 minutes on
11/11/11 for those of us that want to create new characters @ 11:11
EVE Time.

Anyone that supports this idea will get a +LIKE from me.

Skyrim (ES5) comes out on 11/11/11... i'll be too busy killing random NPCs in the world of dragons and walking/talking cats to worry about internet spaceships for at least 48hrs. (Unless my skill que needs refreshing).

Also I'm not sure someone in this thread is high... just saying.

No I don't believe that the observation that EVE will be offline at 11/11/11 11:11:00 is the result of being "high".

Interesting that you do.

The fact that CCP seeming plans to allow that seems to be the ultimate high, in stupid, historically.

Yeah that's what I am saying, EVE won't be online to represent at 11/11/11 11:11.

Dumb.

Unless we can get them to delay the downtime.

Then why did you respond?

Can I say "Goonfu*ks"?

Do South Park rules apply to narrow minded Nimrods?

Just wait until next year.

12:12 12/12/12 isn't so bad, and it'll be the last time it'll be possible to do this sorta thing with dates this century.

I don't think this is a goon/nongoon issue. This really is a terrible thread. A better question than why did he respond would be why did you decide to splurge this horribleness onto the forums. Please keep your crazy to yourself next time....

You're a bright one, resort to the 'yYOURE A GOON LOL' defense. Seriously though, you should just stop posting now. Sometimes I think Id like a golden toilet but that doesnt mean I go put a ****** pointless thread up about it.

12/12/12 12:12 includes the numerals 1 and 2. 11/11/11 11:11 only contain a stream of 1's.

Won't happen again while any of us are alive and the fact that EVE will be offline I feel is a sad disgrace to a 10000 year legacy.

CCP can prove that they have control by delaying down time on 11/11/11 by only 30 minutes or they will prove that they don't care about legacy or history.
