Newsflash, 29th of September 2014!

CCP fails to bring up the server at their estimated time of 1300 EVE
and instead considers disappointing their playerbase once again
by booting it up OVER HALF AN HOUR EARLY!


People protest in silence everywhere
by logging in and continuing to play.


This was news;
Yours truly,
Sol!

Not as good as last time, but close. ;)



23rd of September, 2014


Six minutes and a bit.

Shortest I recall was nine....


Impressive! :D

There will be the day when you expect downtime but it just wouldn't come.

Now I'm scared more than I was when I decided to re-watch original Ring before going to cinema to see US remake. I'm still very careful around fridges and tv sets. Brrrr...

I guess that day will come eventually .............
... and CCP might not even announce it.

Wouldn't that be the best troll ever?


Usual messagebox one hour before ...
... half an hour before ....
... a quarter hour ....


........... five minutes count down.







Nothing happens.





Epic win!

Well we've already had a realtime update, so I'd imagine that DT's days are numbered.

You probably aren't referring to that new "DownTime" we've been getting on a semi-daily basis lately... P

Confirming that I typically use DT during the work-week to shower before heading to work.

Also confirming that I will continue showering at around that time during the work-week in the event of DT's removal.

I want to fly like a pirate, not smell like one.

Well, there's a difference between doing something faster and not having to do it at all, but I have no doubt they'll get there eventually.
