Hey guys,
Apologies for the unscheduled downtime that Tranquility is experiencing tonight.
Our services have been the target of a DDoS attack this evening, and we're currently working on rectifying the situation and making sure that everything comes back online okay.
We apologize for the interruption in service, and we hope to have things back online soon.
Thanks for your patience.
UPDATES:
22:15 - 31/12/2013 - Work in progress. No ETA for service to be fully restored at this time. 23:00 - 31/12/2013 - Services are back online, and Tranquility is now accepting connections.

Sorry to see you guys having to work on this day.

Thankfully I've got a bottle of Johnnie Walker on my desk to keep me company, although it's vanishing fast.

What did you do wrong this year to be the one locked in the office trying to stop the servers melting while everyone else is drunk and at parties? I feel bad for you, I remember being in the same position :-(
I was going to have more drinks tonight... I've been drinking since 10am this morning, but sadly that's off the cards now.
EVE, and you guys take priority when this happens.

We have guys from all our offices, and at our datacenter working when stuff like this happens. 
Our operations and security guys tend to be the unsung heroes when we have issues with Tranquility, because they work non-stop to get issues resolved behind the scenes.
I <3 them.

We're well aware of this, which is why we haven't given an all clear and said that things are back to normal.

he probably just needs a hug.... you'd be surprised what people do when they lack that one little human interaction in their daily lives. They probably just need a hug. Erlendur S. Thorsteinsson | Development Director | EVE Online // CCP Games | @erlendur |
