HiVelocity, the site's host, is going through the final step of their relocation, so there may be downtime on Sunday. As they will be installation that last bit of their network hardware, there may be moments of downtime during the window below.

Now that we have moved 100% of our server base to our new data center we can relocate the last of that gear. During this maintenance there will be intermittent network latency. Once this work is complete our move to the new data center will be complete and our network will be stronger than ever.

When I first saw the title, I thought "Man, what a time to be down." I guess it's not bad though, when it's like that early in the morning, since probably not many people will be going to a midnight release of Black and White.

Coincidence that it coincides with the US release date of Black and White? Well, the redundancy in that sentence would indicate that it is most likely so

Well at least the downtime is during the night the day Pokemon Black and White release.

Please keep in mind that it will not be SOLID downtime. There will be brief spurts of downtime for a few mintues.

I know but I wanted Michael Scott to express my feelings on how I felt about VR being down.

if it happens at 2 - 3 AM CST, it'll be time to go to bed, if not, I'll be up until 3 AM CST.
Oh joy, but seriously if this helps us have a better connection I'm all for the small sacrifice of not being on.

If not, well then disregard what I said about small sacrifices.

Bumping this up because the maintenance has started. Intermittent dropouts are normal for the next 3½ hours.
