Re: .....

Apparently our hardware is now "too good" for Blizzard's code. Because of the improved speeds, it caused an error in the tabulations for honor (I'm assuming it kicked off a process at the wrong time as a result of the scripts being balanced for the hamster-powered servers) which in turn kept booting people from the game.

However, Blizz's ETA, however inconvenient for the east coast, was accurate. Server was back up right around 10:30 or so. Gave me time to play GalCiv2 and launch a crushing offensive that secured the better part of a third of the galaxy...

Re: .....

I was not happy because I had been in a little while and had taken the boat to Darkshore. Just as I should have been coming out of the load screen it kicked me out. I could not log back in. I tried all of my existing characters - nothing. I tried other servers and I could get in on those. I came back to MG, created a dwarf priest named JoeBobEarl and got in just fine. The funny part was that out there in the dwarf starting area, there were about 20 of us running around that created new characters because we couldnt log in. So you had a bunch of level 1 dwarves and gnomes with names like "helpcantlog" "blzsux" "nologin", etc. running around dueling and what not. Good times.

Then there was the whole story of a level 5 undead rogue named Nizuttz on Lightnings Blade......

Re: .....

I know it is for here.

As a postmortem to your adventures Stike, it began as an issue where the distorted honor calculations were fine for a bit, but then people would get disconnected and not be able to log back in. I'd assume that any character with honor information (just about all your characters) would be unavailable, but ones with no honor data at all (i.e. - new) would be fine.

Once Blizzard realized the root of the problem, they had to shut down the affected servers (all the ones with new hardware) to attempt to fix it. Hence, the oddities you experienced last night.
