Note  52  Vingilote    (04/03/20 18:45)  Scheduled Maintenance

 
Citizens of Arda,
 
    Thanks to the Patreon support we've received since we first
began collecting donations there, T2TMUD is moving forward with 
updating essential server components that will allow us to 
continue to provide high quality, stable connections.  Therefore, 
please be informed that at the end of this uptime, we will have a 
maintenance period to install several updates.
 
    This maintenance period is in part due to the increase in 
sustained activity we've seen lately, where we've seen as high 
as 51 players online and a sustained average of 28+ users at 
any given time.  We are happy to have the problem where we need 
to upgrade, rather than downgrade!
 
    On April 7th at 9PM EST (approx. 9pm mudtime) we will have a 
longer downtime than normal, expected to last 1-2 hours, while we 
upgrade our RAM, install security patches, and reset our clock so 
that mudtime will match time in the Eastern U.S. again, likely 
in addition to other odds and ends being fixed on the server-side.
 
    Once everything is up and running again, we'll send out an all 
clear on Discord, Facebook, and Twitter.  Thank you for preparing 
for this maintenance update.  Remember to "save"!
