Originally by: ArchAngel SixNine but why is it always the EU time zones that get to loose valuable skill point time (if the queue is reset) ?
Um... you do know that skills train while you're logged off, right?
So not being able to actually play doesn't affect your SP collection one jot - assuming you keep your queue topped up and on a patch day set a couple of days worth of skill to train, and if you've playing a year as claimed that should be a no-brainer.
If everyone's skill queue got reset somehow, it wouldn't matter what TZ you call home. Nobody would be training.

Continuing on from SP reimbursement thread...
Quote: The question is, how much game time has been lost due to extended downtimes in the last 3 months? I'm not talking the daily 30min-1hour downtime either. I can think of at least 4 or 5 different occasions in the last 3 months where downtime has been extended, usually extending 5+ hours. In the past 3 months I'd estimate over 24 hours (definitely 24hours +) has been taken up due to extended downtimes.
He makes a good point.

Originally by: CCP SpitfireUpdate at 15:25 UTC. Downtime has been extended till 18:00 UTC as we continue to investigate and fix the edge-case issue. Thank you for your patience and we apologize for this inconvenience.[/quote
edge-case issue? Is this tech speak for, someone cut their hand on the edge of a computer side panel and nobody knows how to use a metal file to round off the edge?

An edge case is a scenario that is only encountered in a specific (limited) situation. It doesn't affect many users, but still needs to be dealt with.
For example: an edge case might exist such that "POSes will ignore standings for contacts of alliances with more than 255 alliance contacts set". This is an edge case because not many alliances have that many contacts. However, it's a critical issue for those alliances that do.
So edge cases, while not necessarily widespread, can have very important effects on those they do affect. --- SOMER Lotteries SOMER Blink - new! SOMER Escrow Services |

Seriously tho, the daily d/t is on a regular basis well below half an hour, sometimes just fifteen minutes. If we "lose" a few hours on patch days, it more than balances up in the long run.
I'd rather have a server that functions than to log in and have it crash and/or restart multiple times. There's more things in life than EVE. And putting a 2d+ skill on patchdays should be something you start do after well, your first extended d/t experience. -

Originally by: ArchAngel SixNine Patches and downloads are always in the pipeine, non surprisingly more so in Eve, but why is it always the EU time zones that get to loose valuable skill point time (if the queue is reset) ? why cant our friends across the pond take over sometime im sure they would oblige ! Alternating Down time between Zones would be fare to ALL Paying Eve players around all the time zones.
Its ok to say they are giving us 1.4 but as a newish player (meaning less than a year old) i still pay real cash to maintain an account and today i have lost hours of gametime that i will not get back. lets hope concerns in this forum are actually addressed in the near future.
Why the EU timezone... well... where is Iceland?
I don't think you or I or anyone else is going to say to the CCP dev team "hey, why don't you sleep during the day and work through the night instead?"
Shows how ridiculous your statement actually is.

Actually WOW charges for EXPANSIONS not updates, no game I can think of charges for updates. EXPANSIONS on the other hand, eve does NOT charge for as WOW does
