Esp when it resets every time the effort is put in to get it to the opening of that window.

Just saying. . .

Got to understand, that is going to happen. It happened on classic as well since they worked 8-5pst so patches and resets generally happened in that time frame.

Rogean is east coast, do you expect him to be up at 4am saying hey the server needs rebooting?

Can someone let me know the other times this happened that everyone keeps referencing? Serious question.

Actually...

Classic EQ was managed by a West Coast based company (operating in Pacific Standard), and nearly every scheduled patch took place starting at either Midnight or 2AM PST.

Further, server crashes were not scheduled and never happened repeatedly at the same time like Project 1999's "simulated crashes" (3:30pm EST).

to be fair it was like 15 and most were euros; nearly half spaniards.

Can we all just agree that Euro's are the true enemy of the server. No offense Noah, I know you only live there.
