I went out with some guys from work, got pissed, watched the England game, came home hoping EVE was back on, and when I found it wasn't I did some ironing, then tidied up a little bit of FRAPS I have been meaning to tidy for about 3 years. What did you do?

Played the Crackdown 2 demo a couple of times, watched an episode of Justified with my dinner, worried that my POSes are going to run out of fuel. Also forum whored a bit.

From Twitter:

Guys, I'm truly sorry for this... we discovered a DB issues when running our final tests...
this required us to take down the sites while we investigate the issue. We don't have an estimate uptime yet...
Thank you so much for your continued patience. Ops guys are really burning the midnight oil working on fixing this
at this time we don't have an ETA, but we're trying to get it up asap

13 hours until my towers run out of fuel, how's that for careful timing? But now to bed I think...

Holy shit, it's still not running! I left work early, so I could take a look at the Shintaht Office rent and make sure it was OK.......we never did get a bill, so we couldn't have paid it anyway. About 30 minutes later, the server went down. So I put the child to bed and had home cooked pizza for dinner, forum whored, backed up the Agony website database, forum whored some more, played with the dog for a bit, forum whored, went to bed, got up, went back to work. When I got to work, I thought I should check on a petition we've got outstanding about unlocking some of Agony's BPOs, only to find the system is still down. I'm really hoping it's going to be fixed by the time I get home again today.

So, even though I'm on a Duty Manager shift tonight (4pm to Midnight, on top of my 9 to 5 job, life's great!), there's a good chance I'll be home before Eve is back up and running.

From the Eve-O website:
[blockquote]As of 0300 GMT, we estimate bringing everything back online by midday on Thursday, June 24. We will continue to update this page as often as possible to keep everyone apprised of our progress. [/blockquote]

for Reference: Midday GMT is 10pm here.

Current update is "midday Thursday." :P I have the week off, and spent today in NYC doing the tourist thing (had a good time, and a bit more tan). Figured that it'd be up by now, but as a SysAdmin I was leery of the projected downtime. Thankfully last night I made sure everybody had about 2 days in training queue. :) Been burned by this in SL before (try 72 hr downtime over a x-mas weekend). Anyway, here's hoping the revised target is a good one.

Past MMO experience (Second Life / Myst Online) does not influence interest in PvP.

Umm gotta comment on this. Do you often do ironing after you've gone out and got pissed? :amazed:

Moving hardware during the time that Ingerlund were kicking a ball around was asking for trouble - like I said to Draelor yesterday, half our street were off work to watch the game.

You'd like to think someone learned something during the process wouldn't you? ;)
