Scheduled Downtime
We're going to have scheduled downtime starting at 2AM on Friday December 2nd. We're expecting this downtime to last up to 12 hours, but we're hoping to cut that short throughout the process. Keep an eye on the status site and our social media during the downtime for updates.
We're moving the database to a new service which requires making a backup of the current site, beaming it to a server and then feeding it into this new database. Subeta is huge and you've created a lot of data over the past 12 years which takes a lot of time to move from server to server.
All of your currencies, pets, and other account data are entirely safe as we're starting this entire process by creating a backup.
The downtime will be on a day that Melody's Cottage is open, so we're going to reduce the requirements for the 2016 achievements by a day, so even if you aren't able to visit Melody you can still earn the achievements.
Thanks for your patience and happy holidays!

Oh cool! I am very appreciative of this information in plenty of time before hand! I am also happy to know I won't have to worry about any errors in the process possibly hurting my account. You guys are awesome. <3
Thank you very much for communicating with us and giving us a good time for heads up, very much appreciated. Will the server change result in fewer error pages or less downtime?
oohhh okay thank you for the heads up _ that just means we need to visit melody on the 2nd after 00:00 but before 2:00 subeta time right?
I hope this fixes the errors we keep getting every 5 pages or less which really comes out to about every 10 to 15 seconds
Aw man I work in the evening that day, here I was thinking it would be over by the time I got home.
Fingers crossed for everything to go smoothly + thanks for the heads up <3

We've done load testing and stress testing, and the benchmarks are positive.
