Maintenance Brings all us Together.

Come to think of it... what ever happened to the maintenance that occurred while we were sleeping? I remember when I first game, I could have sworn the maintenace was mostly done when I was sleeping. Maybe they're switching it with Japan. One year Japan days, next year, NA days...but I'm just guessing.
 
i think they are trying to make it so it's at the lowest traffic hours of the day (ie: when people are at work/school) quite a few people do in fact play at night, so maybe they decided to try for during the day? i dont know....the fact of the matter is.....it's freaking 8 hours long and isnt getting me any closer to lvling up my woodworking some more ><.

Anyway, so whats everyone doing during the maintenance?
 
I really would like to know how SE has their servers configured. 8-hour maintenance is pretty much unheard of in the Networking Field. When it comes to the POL servers I can understand why all servers have to be down, since we all connect to the same group of servers for that part of the connection, then we get distributed out to own server group after that to log into the game. (I assume have not bothered looking into it). Best I can assume is all worlds must share some kind of common backend server, such as a database server, but still nothing comes to mind that would require 8 hours of work. My customers would shoot me if I told them there network would be down for 8 hours. They don't like it when I tell them they would be down for 2 hours.

It's ok...FFXI will be back soon...

Why the hell don't I have a Mandy Plushie, I'd pay money for one!
 
orz. Found out one of my classes is getting out early today, just in time to....sit and home and wait for the maintenance. Normally I'd get home just as it ended. ::pulls out the Visa and hits www.buyalife.com:: <- warning not a real link to the best of my knowlegde.

Where did you get the plushi's(sp) at?

I'm also trying to figure out how to make my Cat Glow Blue for Halloween.
 
I'm going to use this forced downtime to catch up on my viewing of Natruto and Full Metal Alchemist. I was wondering where I would get the time and SE was nice enough to provide it for me. :P

Who knows? I might actually workout tonight.

Hehe, my nakedness is diminishing as it gets colder (we don't use heat...cause, godammit, that's what sweaters are for!). Now I look like a gigantic pile of blankets moving around the house :D

I am *shocked* at your countermooning! Shocked! :shock:
