I second that emotion.

So you are ok with the fact that other servers get compensation for problems but we do not.

And assistance every time there is an event. Not coincidental that stacks of marble are always in the latest rounds of 'compensation', sure makes killing golems less difficult, as do the wells and wheat refills. Unusual that these items suddenly seem to be the 'flavour of the month'.

Nice to see a step in the right direction this week, as far as we were concerned, add in some stacks of marble, wells and wheat refills, a couple of premium days, and some 'super buffs' to drop on pumpkin fields, and I'd almost feel an equal.

From the news page: Start: Thursday, October 31st at approx. 00:30am GMT

Starting 13 minutes early is not appreciated. There are many players that time buffs etc. on the basis we can do stuff up until at least 00:25am GMT. "Approx" doesn't give your support guys good reason to take the game offline early.

Anyone else running their gold production chain unbuffed for the next 6 hours?
Not happy.

Why closing for mainenance earlier than announced. Done it 2 weeks in a row now, very annoying when I wanna do the last orders.

Nice maintenance going ahead early again, 15 minutes ahead of the notified time.

here aswel , was just getting 3 exo's and cookie placed :(

Yeah I usually buff 5 mins b4 maintenance. Cause it was early everything is running unbuffed now. I can handle up to 5 mins early but not 15! Plus I wont be getting up at 6 am either. No announcements in game chat by mods about the early maintenance.
Was wondering why the warning came up just after midnight. its usually around 12.15.
Any explanations?

In actuality the maintenance was later than announced.

The information states 00:30 am GMT+1 (aka BST) even though the server is hosted in London which has been on GMT since summer ended last Sunday.

Still having the information posted using Summer Time is more confusing than useful for most players though and should likely be amended to use just GMT next time. 11:30pm (UK time/WET/GMT) maintenance is not what they used last year.

Having it at 17 minutes past the hour was very messy though.

Is that the time? 12.30? Wow I could have sworn it was only 12:17
