Scheduling Downtime



We'll be taking Subeta down on Thursday November 8th starting at 9PM Subeta time. We'll be doing routine maintenance, as well as some infrastructure/server work.

We predict the work will take around 12 hours, and we will update the site down page and our twitter through the process.

@chookie I don't follow sports either really, unless it's the Olympics. I follow the Rabbitos though, just because that's the team my dad follows.

chookie

@Wolfmyth
nope, it's actually derived from a childhood nickname superchookataurus which turned into asuperchook when i started online and needed a UN, which got shortened to chook or chookie. i don't really follow sports ^^' (which is very unAustralian of me i know)

@chookie
lol, yes....Tim Tams would work too...

Funny thing, when I worked at Disney for a year, when fellow Aussies noticed my name badge and how it said I was from Australia, they'd always comment they were from Australia, which is when I'd go "Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!" To which they'd respond with "Oi, oi, oi!" Coworkers would look at us like we were nuts. The first time it happened once the guests had left, a coworker and a coordinator asked "What was that?"

I told them, "It's our sporting cheer, but if someone says Aussie, Aussie, Aussie!, others must respond with oi, oi, oi! It's unaustralian not to."

They responded with "Ooookay...."

That would be about 2AM on Friday for me, and if it's 12 hours, the site won't be back until 2PM and I'll be away from the computer at the time...I really hope this bathhouse thing does get sorted. I've been visiting for over 400 days in case they decide to add more tiers to the achievement...

Okay everyone, the programmers wrote something up so no one with a current bath house streak will lose it. Hooray!

Ariel

Hey guys! I'm reaching out to programmers to figure out what the best way for us to make sure this doesn't jeopardize bathhouse streaks would be. Will keep you posted!

@Wolfmyth I certainly do... altho I just remembered I'll be at Bris Supanova so should be fine :D

Considering the recent spate of lag, timeouts, and issues with the shop history system, I'll happily wait through any maintenance you throw at us, even if it's way more than 12 hours. I have plenty of other stuff I can work on in that time, like my writing or the dishes. You do you, and I'll happily return to a better-functioning Subeta later, no matter how long it takes!

Ouch that doesn't sound routine at all. Not the end of the world but still a new Zentu colour would make it worth the wait *hint hint*

That's... a long downtime. I mean, I guess it will be okay since it will basically be during the night/early morning for me, but... still. I guess thanks for the update!

Hopefully we will get plot prizes before that? :)

There is a forum ping group for the Bathhouse here if you think you'll forget: https://subeta.net/forums.php/groups/#/group/7415

Chocolate

Why would it possibly affect the Bathhouse?

There is planned uptime of 12 hours. That's plenty of time.
Even if you're normally online certain times of day, popping on for 2 seconds doesn't seem like it should be that hard.
(If downtime should last significantly longer than 12hrs, the question can be raised.)

Marlboro

Thanks for the update :)

when the site will come back, can we have a reminder for the bath house for the 9th? it's very likely that many will forget about it, mainly those who go there after midnight..

Oh, this is fine. Thank you for scheduling this around my work day! ;)

CrazyBirdLady

Just be sure to get your Thursday bathhouse BEFORE 9 PM. The site will be up again on Friday at 9 am, so we are good.

It would have be off 24 consecutive hrs before we would miss the bathhouse.

Will this effect the bathhouse?

Thats 2am - 2pm for me and most of my subeta is done in the morning when I get to work.
