    It may have to upgrading aspects of the games and forums to better optimize with Windows 10, better DirectX programs, etc.

    Just a thought.

    Thanksgiving is November 26th​​
    This program, though reasonably normal at times, seems to have a strong affinity to classes belonging to the Cat 2.0 program. Questerius 2.7 will break down on occasion, resulting in garbage and nonsense messages whenever it occurs. Usually a hard reboot or pulling the plug solves the problem when that happens.

    [grabs tinfoil beanie] Wouldn't this just be the perfect time to wedge in a surprise release of Season 11? Twelve hours of downtime in which to get all the new code deployed and validated by internal QA teams. I know if it was my Operations team here at work, we'd take advantage of a planned outage like this. C'mon Crytpic, you know you want to do it!

    I'm hoping Season 11 arrives on the 22nd.
    It's my birthday and I'm on vacation that week.
    (though if it arrived any day the week before, I'd be happy with that too)

    Sounds like I won't be able to get on the game for quite a while on this day. I'm already getting the shakes just thinking about it ;)

    I would be careful if I where you, one of them is probably a Undine :smile:

    I don't know about anyone else, but I have some family that the Undine would probably be the preferable option...

    Thank heavens! Been getting SNRs every 10 or 15 minutes ever since the last patch. Maybe feeding the server hamsters to Caitians and Ferasans, and replacing them with new ones on the 13th will help. Especially if the new ones see what's happening to the old intractable ones.

    Or maybe ditch the hamsters and take on slave labour, instead. I hear that's all the rage in China, right PWE?

    Just found "Sword Art Online II" on Netflix. I know what I will be doing Tuesday night instead of STO.

    Rotten luck lol!
    The mrs had planned a day out with a friend of hers taking the baby with her. The kids are going to be in school...T'was going to be a day of glorious gaming and man food, but alas. I am forced once again to log in to this "Real World" server, still in Alpha and not that great, but it fills in the gaps with STO.
    Im not really complaining though, any server improvements are welcome from this player.

    So now it's going to be down for only 3½ hours?

    Launcher is telling me:
    We will be performing shard maintenance on October 13th from 6-9:30 AM Pacific (13:00-16:30 UTC).

    Not sure why it took so long to register for me (saw the blog days ago)... But, wow that's a lengthy maintenence.

    Definately frees up my 'gaming time' for other stuff... perhaps I can get some Autumn tasks done.

    No, that would be 9 hours. So, they cut 3 hrs from the original 12 hr schedule.

    So 9am here to 6pm here, I am sure I can find something to do to keep my mind occupied. I can do maintenance on some of my Guyver fan fiction before posting it :D

    Like I said before, what are they gonna break this time?

    Reman arms of course. They will make them invisible. OH WAIT!!! That is still broken. LOL.

    That's me, pretty much. It only seems to happen at certain times of day, but since those are when I usually start playing I've instead burned through a lot of TV (mostly via the internet, btw) lately. Whatever that last patch did has really cut back on my STO time... and I was one of the lucky folk that rarely have issues. :tongue:

    Anyway, good luck getting done what needs doing during the downtime.
