From GameSpy, at least the parts that pertain to y'all....


Hi Hosted Site Owners,

We will be performing major maintenance and upgrades to our hosting systems this week. Site uptime should not be effected, except database-driven sites who may observe limited (5 to 15 minutes) downtime.

Maintenance will begin on March 7, 2006 at 8am, and we anticipate completion by end of day March 9, 2006.

The following effects will be noticeable to our hosted sites:

* Sites utilizing databases will see a 5 to 15 minute period of downtime when we bring the mySQL servers down and perform upgrades. Database maintenance is currently anticipated on 3/8.

* Users may have connections reset as we bring webservers down, they simply need to reconnect


Thanks,
Chuck

Site uptime should not be effected, except database-driven sites who may observe limited (5 to 15 minutes) downtime. And this differs from an average week how?

Hah! If they're doing what they say they're doing, there's no way they have the servers down for just 5-15 minutes.

FOFD is open, if this place is down for an extended period... http://p098.ezboard.com/bfofd

That does remind me that I ought to mention the established alternate if this does last any longer than expected...

You might still have the accumulated total correct. It's no sure thing that they are finished.
