It's 2am-6:11am in America, 10:11am in England, 11:12am in Sweden, all on a weekday. Currently the only players online would likely to be from Asia Pacific (so Australia), not to mention the servers are crashing.
And New Zealand (aka NZ) ... NZ Scruffy <-- I'm often on with hardly anyone around (even more often just me on SMP5, it's all mine! yay for me) so... no servers, and I didn't get any movies... ok, time to test some builds in SP.
I think this is a bungee problem, which means the restart wouldn't work anyway. I've also tried direct connect. It doesn't work. This either means all the devices are down, and aren't coming online, or there is a problem with the domain.
Aikar has just done a few changes/upgrades to bungee connection. I guess he broke it, oops. lol What? To my SP? umm.. I have no idea how to do that outside of LAN. lol I'm just gonna test some farm designs I've been pondering. No big deal.
I think is likely an internet or actual device problem with the host. We're just going to have to wait for Aikar to wake up. So it could be a number of hours before the servers are online again.
Yea, Aikar mentioned in one of his announcement threads that the Host may have unplugged some stuff or something while attending another problem request he submitted. Could be all related. What we do know is that this is an EMC/host problem, not our end/ISP/Mojang. Because every other server and SP connection works for me (and others) So we shall just have to wait for our beloved EMC to resurrect from the ashes.
I swear they put that in there with a randomizer so that 10% of the time it'll show an error just to keep the public calm
