Downtime Begins: 3/4 @ 12:00 PM
Downtime Length: 2-4 Hours


On Wednesday, March 4th, we will be upgrading our server. This process will require at least a few hours for our Host to migrate everything to the new hardware and then an unknown amount of time to make sure everything is functional once the new hardware is available.

This upgrade is specifically to upgrade our CPU, which atm, is the reason the Site begins to lag under high load. Our current CPU just simply can't keep up with how the Site is set up at this time. So hopefully this upgrade will help to keep pages loading fast even with 300 players online.


Update: Unfortunately, the migration process was not finished today. I guess there was some miscommunication with our Host and they were not prepared for the migration when I thought they would be. After an all day of set up, the migration process still isn't ready so we've decided to put it on hold for now.

We will provide a new downtime for the migration as soon as we know.

We apologize for the inconvenience and understand your frustration - we're frustrated as well lol... but unfortunately, that's just how it goes. This process is through our Host and is happening across the country from where we are so we are pretty much powerless to the process.

That's wonderful news. I wasn't able to participate much in the Valentines fest area because of the lag. I don't mind when there are other games going on. But when that and the wheel is the only way to participate it gets lonely. :)

Thanks for the update Krin! I don't think I have anything planned that day but I've been busy crocheting and trying to clean on the weekends (when I get a break from my son).

Oh, that'll be nice, then. Less lag is always a good thing! Thanks for letting us know!

Thanks for the update! I'll be on vacation for a few days, but am looking forward to coming back to the site being on a new server :)

Just to clarify, Krin, by "12:00 pm" do you mean 12 noon or 12 midnight?
