Hi all,

Due to the server merge, this week's maintenance will be significantly extended. The servers will be going down Tuesday evening at 6pm PDT. We expect them to be back up by 4am, but if things take longer than anticipated they might not be back up until much later. We will make sure to keep you updated in the event maintenance runs late.

There are no patch changes beyond updating the server list.

Maintenance question: What is your favorite science fiction series? Be it books, movies, or otherwise.
==/Senior QA Lead/==

Surtr from the south wielding fire
The gods' swords shine in the darkness, like stars in the night
Mountains collapse into rubble and fiends shall fall
Man walks the road to ruin as the sky splits in two

    my favorite science fiction series are "GMs they do exist" published by PWE
    a runner up is "Soon [tm]"

    personally glad that its starting early, but doesn't that interfere with in game events? (bonus points for you if you can name the tuesday night in game event!)

    So any word from you guys on a rethinking of which servers you're merging or a free account transfer for those of us from HL to go to the new east coast server at least?

    What about multiple event times in DawnGlory and different TW time slots? Are we getting ANY of those? What about the cross server PVP event / NW patch notes?

    What happens with a toon which get's deleted during maintenance?

    I have toons with same name on Sanctuary and Lost City.
    I deleted the one on Sanctuary because I don't want the "LC" suffix on my toon in the future.

    What will happen when it gets deleted during maintenance?
    Will I still get the suffix? Will a toon in "deleting-process" still count?
    A free Idenitiy stone would be nice - on both toons...

    Since our beloved pwe staff is working hard to merge servers for us I thought I would post a pic of one of these dedicated team members hard at work.

    I am happy about the server merge (Though I do feel for people on the east coast server being pushed to Euro time)

    The merge is coming! *Hands out straitjackets*

    I'm quite certain none of my favorite series fall in the science fiction genre, so, there's a question I can't answer.

    The Walking Dead.

    Not too thrilled about the merge. I've survived enough of them through the PW history.

    Any word on when you are handing out the July token raffle stuff? I'm only getting dragon shocker packs, but this total lack of acknowledgement that such an event ever existed it getting tired

    I wonder what will happens if after the merges you fail to bring over one of them and then pretend it never existed lol

    Contingency plan if the merger initially doesn't go well.....I will hop in my new car and go on a road trip and give the merger a few days while I enjoy the outside world and let the whiners complain and ask for "kompannsashun."

    As for Science Fiction series Stargate SG-1 and Atlantis and for campy fun, Eureka.

    Book series - too many to name

    So you have said Mr Broken Record.

    I hope you fail and find yourself on a street corner with a cup and a cardboard sign begging for handouts


    PS its LOSE not LOOSE. Make sure you use correct spelling on your cardboard sign.

    So no free name change stones to people that will have new initials mudding up there name? You initiate unwanted changes on some character names and not all and people just have to deal with it? Great customer service.
