Got disconnected in the middle of fight in B8. Any attempt to connect after that failed.
Stuck at loading screen every time.

Could it be the amount of people downloading beta7?

Yeah, I think I broke it. I'm really sorry. Read my thread.

I doubt you're connected to the meltdown Redlac. Nothing you did is a cause for a server crash.

It's been behaving erratically since the new mission system was brought up. Actually pretty stable for an in-development thing with somewhat major overhauls.

This has happened every week or so, on average for about a month now so dont sweat it.

P.S. Just my luck, the one day I'm home from school sick, the server has to be down.

Sorry all! This was my fault- Deliverator went out of control and brought down both servers in different ways. In addition to finding the proximate causes of these crashes, I intend to design some safeguards today. Again, I'm really sorry- I should have stayed up to monitor my recent changes or made them on the test server only.
