Eh. They could launch Green 2.0 at a minute's notice. It's a matter of configuring a new port and database, and clicking the launch button. It's not as if there's some massive workload involved in simply launching a carbon copy of an already-existing server. Having run numerous MUDs myself - which, in most respects, are the same as P99 - it takes essentially no work if the game's code is already there. Someone could decide right now to launch Green 2.0 and have it up and running as soon as the datacenter has received the request for an additional route of traffic, which should take no more than thirty minutes if they used a data center in the western world.
