Ok, leaderboards say the 17th at 12 am, lol. Hence the confusion, thanks.

It's the same time.

It does technically end on 1/17 at 12:00am... but when we used to use times like that people would be confused and think that meant end of day, so we started using 1/16 11:59pm so it was more clear.

However, the official timestamp used is set to 1/17 at 12:00am.

I am down to the final major thing to update - exploration. Unfortunately, this is probably about 50,000 lines of code across a few dozen files that I need to parse through. A lot of it is tied together as well so this means I'm going to have to take all of it (just exploration) offline for a bit while I push through and test the update.

I don't have an exact time of when this will take place, but probably it will go offline within the next hour or two. And then once it's offline, probably will be back up after an hour. Possibly less, possibly more.

Nope. Missions/Towns were updated yesterday.

Nope. You should still be able to access them too unless you are like stuck in a battle in a region/zone that's offline.

The only thing that will be going offline are the zones in clusters by region.

----------------------------------------------

Also, this process is taking a bit longer than estimated lol. I am still going through all of Region 1/2's files. I am more than halfway done with them though. Man, so many files and functions. =S

On the plus side, I do think I can separate this out by region type. So I can do Region 1/2 first. Then Region 3. Then the Lost Grove - all separately. And each cluster should go faster because each has less redundancies and less zone files to parse.

So just expect this to be an ongoing process through the next handful of hours and at times, some regions may be inaccessible.

At this point in time, I believe that every feature of the Site is now updated in preparation for our upgrade to PHP 7. (Hurraaaaay)

Unfortunately, I checked Comet Chat and it is not ready for such a thing. (Nowwaaaaay)


Comet Chat is most definitely not the easiest thing for me to go through and I'm going to have to play with it a bit to try and figure out a solution. It's about 350 total files and I obviously didn't write it so I really have no clue how it all specifically works... But if I don't get it updated it will no longer function once we upgrade to PHP 7.

So as I do this, if it breaks or isn't working, just ignore it. I have a copy of it and can restore it at anytime if my attempts fail to be successful.

Yes, thank you so much for all of your hard work! ^0^ Though, don't forget to give your eyes (and rest of you) some rest periodically! :o You don't want them to give out...
