DOES THIS HAPPEN OFTEN?

only been playing for 3 weeks, enjoying the game, not this waiting time.

No king-bobert.

Some years ago maybe, but lately never.
Must be something really wrong, and if i understand BB_Ravel right its done to protect us from problems that ocured on other servers that did go online.
Its not fun or joyfull, but manure sometimes does happen in life ;)

box? its home made pizza... :) this is our local hard cheese like parmigiano, some pieces doesnt melt during baking ;)

could you please ensure that people dont lose out on the daily login achievement for not logging in today?
if server wont come up in another hour then it will be too late for me to login. pretty sure, many users face the same issue as well.

Your concerns regarding log-in bonuses and expiring mines have been passed on.

No this one is special, there is a weekly maintenance, but it's 2-3 hours usually. This one is taking longer because they are trying to convert leftover easter eggs to coins (I think) and I guess the script is taking a lot longer to finish on the live servers than in their development lab.

Weekly Maintenance will take place every Tuesday from now on and May last for a period not exceeding one week. !!! BB will keep you totally informed of all that is happening at least once every Fortnight. Please enjoy spending money on gems while you wait so that you can be prepared for the next time you are able to play the game. We regret that we dont know when that will be But please be patient with us.. We will endeavour to have a new event sometime in the future to help remove any lasting issues caused by the current one.

And yeah its annoying, cost me 3,5k marble just to start with.
Not to mention all feast running out 4 hrs ago, and rainbows running out on goldsmelters 5 hrs ago....
Luckely I can have it, got full store houses so even when all mines run out production wont halt.

Its worse for lower level players I guess.

But whats the use in being upset? I am sure that at BB headquarters they arent happy to, lots of shouting and cursing going on there probably.
Now I know that its done on purpose, to protect our islands , I no longer need to click the Play Now button every minute (or less).
I'll simply wait till BB_Ravel will place an announcement on the FrontPage , telling they found the problem and have a time estimation of when they probably will be back....

And then we'll see what the damage is and start cleaning up and repairing :)
If like a heavy storm hit my Island ;)

And after that i will see what the Insurance (BB mail) will pay me :D

NO way how would that make everyone happy why pay to buy gem when not been able to get in the game would make BB happy but know many players these days (old long term ones i mean) probably dont buy a lot of gems like the used to

Biggest problem is waiting and trying I guess. If I knew that I could not play until tomorrow, then problem would be solved, but not knowing if it works in ½ an hour or 10 hours, that is the annoying part. And as the weather is cold and raining and I am tired after work, I would like to play settlers and relax :)

I am aware that this is not the regular maintenance schedule and I know you guys are frustrated, but it is the first time we are running a conversion script on event resources and it appears some delays are inevitable.

Thank you for your patience!

Does it mean the game is going to be offline for a day when next event in October starts/ends?

They've got a development lab!?! Are you sure about that? Have you actually seen it? I thought they just wrote new code, dipped it in treacle and threw it at the servers to see if it stuck!

most probably, but I can see why one might prefer they not melt. there are some flavors that get lost by hi heat. ( some cheeses).

this pizza shown maybe just heated in some unusual way by a different type "stove".

I fear so Mcluppers, I also fear that the lag on first day of event will be horrific and there will be emergency maintenance to sort that out, then more emergency maintenance to sort out the zone lock. As i said in a earlier post, BB seemed to have missed the point that there were certain advantage sin the old system in s much as they sorted out the bugs years ago instead of muddling through on the fly during the actual event.

As long as they can't provide any ETA for me it means either your suggestion or they "forgot" to implement a progress bar in the script so they can actually track it easily. Logging in a file is another option but again they need to know the exact amount of required changes before even attempting to do any conversion.

I am aware that other instances who had maintenance today are now having some issues and it is my suspicion that one of the reasons our maintenance is taking so long is in order to avoid this type of problems happening on EMEA-ENG.

If EMEA-ENG stands for Europe, Middle East, Asia/Africa? (English versions?) this is a bit puzzling considering some of the instances that are down, and some that aren't. For example; .ar, the Arabic server, had no Easter (nor Christmas, nor Halloween) and seem to be up and running while some of Europe are clearly not.



Oh no, not an update to tell us there's no update

It's not ideal, granted. "Back in exactly X time" would be nicer all round, playerside and no doubt BBside as well, but the ongoing updates and acknowledgements are much nicer than the unbreakable Deathly Silence that used to descend in times past.

its not 365 days in a row, just log in 365 days, a day not logging in only means you get it a day later.
however it can hurt people who missed their daily log-in for the weekly log-in bonus

its not 365 days in a row, just log in 365 days, a day not logging in only means you get it a day later.

Perhaps guy with candles on the maintenance window, should to remove the window curtain and allow sunshine to illuminate the problem....
This is whole day maintenance already, isn't it?

Anyway, let's try to see this maintenance from the positive side :
I have read that some people have been working in the garden today, that they did the dishes, enjoyed the nice weather (except in Denmark...), some of us had to "work" instead of playing TSO in the office, some have been part of real life for almost a day, etc etc.
Personally I have been cooking : made soup for the week, mousaka for the evening, bolognese sauce for tomorrow and the day after, cupcakes for the office tomorrow and an experiment with old bread, egg and milk from a Rachel Khoo recepy which will be used with some left over spicy and garlic minced meat balls.
Life as it was in the old days... back in the 1990's...

RE: 1 Year Achievement - just 'cause it keeps coming up.

As mentioned in a number of earlier posts the longer ones really are "non-consecutive" days, the longest unbroken run needed is a month. When that's done hiccups won't reset anything, only delay it a little.

Being a player from Western Australia, its now 2355 & way past my bed time, for me a total waste of a day & my settlement a total disaster if & when I get to log on tomorrow but things happen & one has to cope the best we can. I love rabbits, but if the little critters are the problem turn them into bunny stew..Happy settling all..

To be honest, I dont get some of the comments. People asking when the game will be back. I think Ravel is keeping us informed as good as she or anyone could. It would be very bad to give an exact time for the game to come back. If they cant make that deadline, all hell would break lose again. And how would that help anyone.
Yes, it can be annoying having to do some RL things for a day, but some seem to manage.
I would like to thank Ravel and everyone else involved for doing a great job in keeping us informed and doing their best getting the game back up.
Just give them a break and some time is all I can say....

what happened?

They messed up, noticed that when other servers started and are putting everything on hold now till they find out what went wrong, then fix it, then implement it.
And then it will start again :) (we hope ) ;)

a problem this bad means they prob deleted player information and progress "database" , if true they will never tell the real reason of the fault and just give the usual our technicians are fixing it and trying to resolve which tells everyone nothing.... in an attempt to try to look professional.

sad really people say we are being well informed yet no one knows the real reason

Thank you BB for the gift I found in my mail this morning - I think it was good of you to offer a "sorry" in this way to make up for what affected some players quite a bit (depending on their sleeping schedules). Much appreciated effort - Cheers!
