    The reason for the server problem is this little fella, he had a heart attack.

    So, them working on getting the game back online isn't serious enough?

    Not when a mod starts the thread off with this, no:

    Nerf is OP, plz nerf
    That's quite the paradox, how could you nerf nerf when the nerf is nerfed. But how would the nerf be nerfed when the nerf is nerfed? This allows the nerf not to be nerfed since the nerf is nerfed? But if the nerf isn't nerfed, it could still nerf nerfs. But as soon as the nerf is nerfed, the nerf power is lost. So paradoxally it the nerf nerf lost its nerf, while it's still nerfed, which cannot be because the nerf was unable to nerf.

    I call it, the Stoutes paradox.

    Can we get an extra week tacked on to finish up these mirror event projects?

    Just blame the great outage of March 2014. :D

    Here's another thought. No mobile app, no image in ARC to tell us when the server is coming back up, and a launcher that requires relaunching before the server up or down images are refreshed doesn't really help us much either.

    PLEASE do not close this topic once the game is back online.. There are lots of people here, come tomorrow, who would like to show their 'appreciation' when it is back up.

    You people do realize that the mod was in game at the time, and it was working for most still at the time, my guess is a server did go down, and a redundant server came up, but something happened in between and it couldn't compensate and they fell like dominoes all lined up.

    Sweet! Ok... I want to watch something that is both funny and thought provoking in a non constructive manner, but utterly ridiculous and not romantic in any way...with roundhouse kicks to the face and a frog... and TRIBBLE... must have TRIBBLE...
    TRIBBLE? Really? Okay. Some huge TRIBBLE for you!

    We're currently working with engineering for our Boston servers. As I'm sure you'd understand, carrier pigeons do take a while. :P

    But really, we're looking at the servers right now to see what went wrong. I will give you updates as soon as I can with substantial information.

    You can see the issue is one that's happened a few times...

    Just searching the forum I get 1000+ reply posts along the same lines, initially the launcher fails, then people fail to resolve a ping, then the game server dies...

    A mod in-game should know he's not accessing the login server at that time. So, when login server conks out, basically everyone stays online for the duration of their connection. And then ppl can't log in any more afterwards.
