I knew they should have upgraded from hamsters to lemmings a while ago! And stop writing code in Icelandic - it's not big and it's not clever!

CCP just ran out of Vitoc for their hamsters. Unfortunately, Vitoc is a banned commodity in Iceland, so Soundwave had to make a viator run to Greenland.

The NPE IS a big deal

After a few calming words and several re-initializations, TQ finally decided to love life again. Thank you for your patience during these start-up difficulties.

As of 12:39 UTC, the server is eagerly accepting your log ins. Fly safe everyone!

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.

UPDATE 12:30 UTC: TQ is still having issues with starting after downtime. A further extension of 30 minutes is required while we get to the bottom of what is going on, meaning 13:00 UTC. Thank you for the patience you guys have shown so far during this unexpected downtime extension.


No problem, thanks for the updates.


why so many chicks here have large... uh... breasts?? is it race-specific? who's the surgeon??? i need to know!

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!!

-- End Rant --


You mad bro? Obviously the majority of us were posting on here to have a bit of fun and poke around at CCP while the servers are down...it appears however that you are the only one taking **** seriously and getting upset. I recommend getting laid Bear

Not sure if serious...

Eurovision is song contest, basically an international version of X-Factor - not a sporting event. Lol And Gargant was clearly having a laugh and not being even remotely serious about the cause (especially considering TQ is physically located in London).

But yes, football (soccer) is very boring.

Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.
