No? How about testing a patch before you apply it?

Hey guys,

As you’re all aware, Tranquility is still offline after today’s scheduled daily downtime.

This is due to an issue with a code deployment today while patching for a few fixes in EVE Online. The issue caused the cluster to fail to start up correctly, and as such, Tranquility is currently unavailable for play for both EVE and DUST.

Our operations and development team are working on this issue as we speak, and we’re hoping to have Tranquility back online for you guys as soon as possible.

Right now, we don’t have an ETA for when the cluster will be back online and accepting connections, but we’ll keep you updated in this thread.

Cheers,

- F

UPDATES:

13:00 UTC - AFTER SEVERAL FAILED STARTUPS, WE ARE CURRENTLY INVESTIGATING A STARTUP ISSUE
13:30 UTC - INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING - NO FURTHER ETA ON UPTIME FOR TRANQUILITY
13:37 UTC - STARTUP FAILED AGAIN - INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING
14:00 UTC - INVESTIGATION IS STILL ONGOING
14:30 UTC - WE ARE CURRENTLY IN THE PROCESS OF REBOOTING AFTER FAULTFINDING AND CHANGES
15:00 UTC - FURTHER ATTEMPTS TO START UP HAVE FAILED - INVESTIGATION IS ONGOING

They're under no obligation to compensate players for anything. There was no way to anticipate the servers having a tantrum and it's not like they have SLA agreements with the players. If anything, CCP giving out *anything* is entirely up to them, but we shouldn't expect anything.

Now, everyone kept their skill queues updated ...right?



Yea, you'd have to be ******** not to have atleast a 1 week que of ''I might train this next....'' LoL until you see something you really need obv and jump the que with it... PP

I had a couple drones out mining before the server reset and would like to thank you for keeping the server down till I was awake. I am able to log on and scoop them back up now. Blink


Though it would be easier if the Orca would scoop its own drones on log off. T2 Orca pls.

This is all a conspiracy of CCP to lower military indices throughout EVE so that there is more time to capture enemy sov ;P

OK, time to provide some food for thought:

Suppose there is an ant at each vertex of a triangle and the three ants simultaneously crawl along a side to the next vertex. The probability that no two ants will encounter one another is 2/8, since the only two cases in which no encounter occurs are when the ants all go left (clockwise) -- LLL -- or all go right (counterclockwise) -- RRR. In the six other cases -- RRL, RLR, RLL, LLR, LRL, and LRR -- there will be an encounter.

Now - what is the probability of no encounter for dodecahedron ?
