Then why are you not doing it as smooth as we want it?

You better analyse this. Did your fleet of hamsters assemble too late? Did the hamster fleet's FC undock with the wrong clone perhaps? There is a reason for everything! Find it, kill the hamster who was responsible for it, and leave his corpse in front of the house for every other hamster to see and to serve as a reminder. This needs to go smoother!!


I concord.

Probably more linked to being able to change code on the fly while the server is live



Yes because changing code while the server is down is very efficient... Question

It isn't clear what is wrong and I myself can't explain it as it is way out of my area of expertise. Those that could explain it are too busy trying to fix it.

I'll wrangle up a summary once these issues are over.


Honest Devs.

This is why I love C C P and EVE Online.

I wonder which country would let me marry a piece of software...

The headline for the summary will most likely be: 'Delay in sever startup was working as intended, we understand that these situations may upset some of you.'

And may that node rest in peace, forever clinging to its remnants of jump clones, Implants, and Gloriously failfit ravens.


You will be remembered, and your sacrifice will not be forgotten. While we carry on, your sacrifice shall enable us to continue in this conquest of internetspaceship supremacy.

All Hail the Node.

I demand that the hamsters be replaced with stronger, hardier Racoons.
Hamsters move over, Racoons deal with FiS as well as FoP (Fighting on Planets) simultaneously.
Viva El Racoon !!

Due to start-up issues, downtime on May 17th is extended until 12:30 UTC.

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.


This is terrible, it's awful! It should not be allowed. Somebody should be strung up for this. It's just not on. I though they had done away with Eurovision years ago!. Terrible, terrible, terrible.Big smile
