    Hey Aedric,
    no ETA I'm afraid. We're almost done with the server files but then there are logs and logs and logs to switch. Not to mention final checks on all 4 servers. If you cornered me in a darkened alley, I'd yell "1 hour" at you as I run away before you can get me to explain why.

    No biggie, I feel much safer now, thank you for the informative response!

    Status updates go a long way, even it if is just to say, "No updates, but we will keep you posted, still working on it"

    I'd add some cinnamon and flower extracts to mine, so they hallucinate a little and feel way more relaxed.

    From what I can tell the official status page only updates for scheduled maintenances and can say a server is up even when it has unscheduled problems. Sweetiebot just pings the server on port 29000 (the port the game uses) which is normally more indicative of whether you can access the server.

    The servers are still visible right now on that port though which is a little odd. The infrastructure stuff they are doing atm is atypical of scheduled / unscheduled down time.

    Server migration is moving slowly. Sweetiebot, do you drink coffee? If so, what kind?

    She only responds if you type her name at the beginning of a new line. That's to reduce accidental requests but maybe that's overly restrictive.

    I dunno, and unless anyone in the office decides to tell us, i guess we'll never know xD. It does say though that it updates every 5 minutes, so I'd imagine that it does the same thing SweetieBot does, just on a more frequent/scheduled basis.

    In other news, I am haunted by a few lines in a lovely book I am reading.

    ""Did you clean up the floor in the damp room?" she asked him the following day...
    "What did you say?" he asked her.
    "The floor-"she said again. "There was blood on the floor. You cleaned it up."
    He shook his head. "No," he said simply and returned to the magazine.
    "Well I didn't," she said.
    He offered her an indulgent smile. "You're such a perfect hausfrau," he said. "You don't
    even know when you're doing it."
    The subject was closed there. He was content, apparently, to believe that she was quietly
    losing her sanity.
    She, on the other hand, had the strangest sense that she was about to find it again. "

    I can't wait for the wife to get online to share it with here, so here it is for you team.

    I was asleep when they went down >.>; I only woke up at about... oh....nevermind. Now that i think about it, servers went down only 30 mins before i woke up the first time and tried to get on so that i could log my sin on to get meridian points D: so now my consecutive days went poof. Although when i first looked at the announcement post, i could swear the ETC was 1 am, but now it says 3 am. Not sure if i was just seeing things, or they one-upped us when we weren't looking ;O

    They're switching the Server hardware for the West Coast servers only. All other servers have been up. Only west coast servers are down. It'll probably be another hour or two before they come back up, if all goes well.

    Didn't you read the very first post in this thread? Anyway, West coast servers are down while they migrate to new server hardware. This is west coast servers only. So East coast and Euro servers are not affected. Be patient, the servers should be back up within an hour or so.
