Giving up any hope of playing on this date
[QUOTE=Keltica;279468]ahem fella's - you want me you have to go through squibb :P[/QUOTE
Me n Squib are like that, close as a cloud in the sky Kelty. Now if only GF hired people who actually knew what they were doing, this happens in every single one of their games its getting to be a joke, every hour we are told it shouldnt take more than another hour lol whut.
Ravel is just passing on the information she is given, its not her fault - in fact i doubt its anyone - this wouldnt be done on purpose :)
hahaha
The fact that it is not done on purpose does not mitigate the annoyance or the disruption.
Hi,
Will the daily login bonus and login-type achivements be amended to take into account this extended downtime? Some of us might not be able to login now until tomorrow?
at this rate, none of us will be able to log in until tomorrow!
Im not having a go at the mods Kelt, i am annoyed that tehy have had a full day to do something pretty basic and still cant get it right, so obviously they havent got the personnel capable of doing the job, not exactly a one off is it:)Quote:

b) You can now unload your generals with 2 clicks (lag still applies of course)
I'm sure you will agree that, whilst extended downtime is undesirable, when the are delivering such major game improvements week upon week, occasional disruption is inevitable.
I know your not z :)
Sandycove is still down - it's my morning now, so it's been down all night. Remarkable. So many things running un-buffed. *argh*
if you consider being able to see how long your buffs last and unloading generals with 2 click, a major major game improvement, I'm curious what do you consider a super mega ultra hyper game improvement?Quote:

These people are supposed to be professionals. Unless they are totally incompetent, they must have an idea about how long things will take, so tell us that, and reward our being locked out appropriately. Then we might have less reason to gripe.
its fine now dude, i realised i was spending far too much time here anyway, time for me to go i think. :) have fun!Quote:

wow, im glad i went to bed. during my sleep the server went from 1 hour away to 7 hours away, after an estimated first four hours. ludicrous. how does someone think something will take an hour when it clearly took 11 ON TOP OF the 8 or so it usually takes??
hi guys
unload the troops with just ONE click??!!! just awesome ...
no more need to click on a building to see how long the buff is still running??!! and your buff partner´s too??!! just awesome ...
ok I´m the first one to moan if things go wrong .... but I love the new things brought by the (looooong...) maintenance phase ... lol
BB ty, and as far as I´m concerned you´re forgiven :=)
lol bowlock... love your posts though ... :)
cheers
Wow, I started this thread as a joke but can't see anyone laughing. Seriously guys, get your act together or actually better - find a job that you can actually work without any issues.
@IT team: Can I have your names please? I want to include you on my blacklist for job applications - you won't even get a junior position in my company.
@Sales team: I hope your strategy for annoying players pays off. Soon that game will be absolutely free and still without players. This on other hand will make you play it so you can better understand the mechanics.
that only happens when the menus are longer than the height of window. guessing its an undocumented intentional change.
i prefer it like it is now.
I'm not sure I understand - the number of items in the economic summary have not changed, so it shouldn't behave any differently than it did before. But really not worth worrying about, just another slight annoyance.Quote:

wau - I was able to log on at 7:40 and that is at least 1 hour 20 minutes before the announced time :)
It opens faster, I was the same, I would click 5 times starting at the bottom and have it completely expanded
As it now opens faster you cannot make the clicks in time before they open, and mask the next one you want to click
And now in English? What opens before you make your 5 clicks from the bottom?Quote:
