2017-06-24 Downtime

will they also add the ability for phone users to see what duckbadges say?

@team blueplant  
This isn’t a code update. We do those routinely in the operation of the site, sometimes many times a day, and they require no downtime to deploy.

I think I’ll manage.

I am here to complain.

@Ridley Wolf  
Thank you for complying with all safety procedures and for your complaint. Your complaint has been noted.
 

Is it a coincidence that this site is going to go under downtime on the same day that Dance Magic will air on Discovery Family?

>Complain here.  
Well if you insist

Shit! Double post.

Internet is slow and the air where I live stinks right now. Can I complain here?

So, any idea how long the site’s going to be down for?
 
Rough, approximate guesstimate?
 
At the sec it could be 2 hours or a full day.
 
(Looking at the first post, possibly no one knows).

Couple hours.

@Arcaire  
Good. Thanks for the prompt reply.
 
Means I can get a request done and up on here. Only one request at the sec, so better getting it out of the way.

@Arcaire  
Oh, OK. 😐

I still Really hope the downtime will only be for an hour or so :D, not a whole day :(

And what server are you going to be using? I really hope it’s still gonna be Google Chrome :D

@Background Pony #F9B5  
2 hours is basically a theoretical maximum to recover if everything goes wrong. If everything goes well it will take less than 2 hours.
 
@Background Pony #F9B5  
Google Chrome is not a server.

@byte[]  
so judging by past downtimes i should expect the site to be down for at least twice as long

@SuperSupermario24  
Downtimes have almost always been half the predicted time for the last three years.

@The Smiling Pony  
idk, maybe I’m just thinking of the one or two times I’ve seen where it’s been longer than expected and I’m only remembering that

@byte[]  
I wonder, do you have a rough idea of how many bytes worth of draws we already have in here?

@The Smiling Pony  
Neat.

when is it coming back up
