Not my thread but posting here since it amuses me: for the first time in...4 years?...I'm not hosting a single game. Caledorn, your takeover is complete!

Crossposted from pb20 tech thread:
I can't connect to the game - it times out when I try. Restarting the game didn't help. Trying from another PC didn't help. Confirmed I can connect to PB21 just fine. Seems like there is something wrong with the game, although at least one other player (mackoti) can still log in.
For the techies, please have a look at http://realmsbeyond.net/forums/showthrea...#pid506142 to see if you can come up with any suggestions.
Thanks!

As most of you know, I have been helping handle the PitBoss server maintenance while Caledorn is unavailable. I talked with him today and the server needs a number of updates done. Because it's slow right now due to the holidays, it seems like an excellent opportunity to shut down the PitBoss server for several hours to get this done.
So on Wednesday, 12/31, at or around 1700 UTC, I will be taking all of the games offline in order to do a Windows update. I don't know how long it will take, but expect them to be down for several hours. My goal is to have everything back up and running no later than 0000 UTC, though I would be very surprised if it takes that long. I will be cross-posting this in all of the active game tech threads, and will post here one hour before taking them offline to confirm. If I have a reason to think they will down longer than 7 hours, I will post an update here as soon as I know. If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to post them here or PM me privately. |
