<p>Today's downtime was just a server restart.</p><p>Tuesday's downtime is planned for 5 hours in order to perform some server upgrades for Oasis, Runnyeye and Mistmoore.  Unfortunately we have to take the world down if we're going to upgrade servers and improve performance.   Really no way around that.</p><p>We could always send the upgrades back if you guys aren't interested in them.  <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p>
