7 Hours?!?! What are they doing????

 

[Swishiee]

I think it's only to get the new Adventurer Recruitment Program up and running. Of course it'll crash and they'll have to do emergency maintenance.

 

[Pascal]

What are they doing for 7 hours. :x

Do you REALLY want to know?

~Gathered in Lower Jeuno are the Game Masters. Hundreds of them lined up in formation waiting on their leader. The hot sun beats down and the perspire under their heavy flaming armor.

Then one lone Gamemaster, the oldest and highest ranked of them all enters Jeuno and doles out one command.

"Remove thy armor!" he shouts.

The leader does what all good leaders do and removes his helmet.

"I AM COLBWA!!!!!!" He cries....

Ps- Okay, so it's a horrid joke. I just saw that dingle-berry with af gloves, so I felt the need to share the pain.

 

[Palum_Q]

What are they doing for 7 hours. :x

Having coffee.

 

[Mishaela]

Lets just say a certain GM <3's me.
A lot. :wink:



Really though, I dunno if I like the sound of this new-adventurer-recruiting crap. If it gets you something good, the gilsellers can really, really easily abuse it...

Ugh I saw him with AF pants, too. :x

 

[Sanjo Renomitsu]

7 hours on my day off.... great. Why couldn't they do this tomorrow? And all for some stupid adventurer-recruiting crap that won't effect 98% of the people currently playing? I better friking see some new items or something... this is pathetic..

This takes 7 hours???

 

[Vlishgnath]

This takes 7 hours???

Speaking as a sysadmin, Yes.

I may be the only person in the entire game that is completely understanding and sympathetic with every update they have that leads to outages later in the week.

Bitch all you guys want, POL does good work on keeping this thing running.

 

[Mishaela]

Lets camp Fazasher Death Weapon after serverup.

Vlish, I really don't care how long their updates take. Though it is sortof weir dthat it'd take 7 hours for that and, say, only 4 hours to add those dozens of new, non-CoP items/mobs.

 

[Sanjo Renomitsu]

I really doubt you are, Vli :wink:


Hmmm, less server lag in ballista is going to be nice. Now if they can toss that in for Dynamis... yeah..

[xKronox]

I just now completeing downloading the update, only took 5mins....

 

[Pascal]

I just got the update too, it is pretty small. I'd recommend everyone download it ahead of time and avoid the rush.
