Sarius you should be saying "the repops aren't classic enough."

If you were smart you'd say "we deserve 1-2 hours warning via server broadcast or something so that everyone can at least put forth their best preparation." This would at least somewhat emulate the actual downtime people experienced on live.

At the same time, though, it's hard to emulate an hour or two of server down without actually having an hour or two of server down.
