  1. DOWNTIME FOR ALL SERVERS

    Tonight (10-Dec-2011), at 3:00pm ET (20:00 GMT), all servers will be down for approximately 30-45 minutes.

    This is to upgrade the storage systems for all the Empire data (for nerds, it is to adjust the master slave configurations for MySQL). When the servers come back online nothing will be changed as far as game play goes. Instead this is paving the way for future updates and more integration between the servers and the website.

    I try and keep downtime as rare and small as possible and apologize for anyone who has MC withdrawals ;)

  16. Hey Justin, know you're probably busy w/ the servers right now, but whenever you get back to this thread:

    I noticed the fancy Status on the server pages. Is that directly linked to the server so that it automatically updates itself, or do you have to manually adjust it to say "Preparing to shutdown/Down for repairs/etc."?

    Just curious.
