As we have been shown with the BK 48Hr "mini event" it is possible to install an event without "maintenance downtime" to be triggered when BB choose....
So My question is why can't we have our short events/quests over a weekend, as BB have shown us that it is clearly possible.........:cool:
Just a guess, but they probably chose week days since the BB Staff is at work to answer calls and such should something come up that needed a fix.
This is certainly a valid point and is another reason why we conduct updates during office hours and not say, in the middle of the night.Quote:

I suspect the code was installed with the previous maintenance and just needed to be turned on. The downside of that is it would require another maintenance before the next 48hr event.Quote:
