Unscheduled Server Maintenance - 03.28.2012

America >> Korea. Long discussions about why, how, when, etc. (mostly BS)
Korea makes changes. Korea tests. Korea makes new patch files / changes to server-side scripts where appropriate.
Korea >> America
America tests. Implements.
Regular server tests after every server check.
Servers online.

More stuff than you might think. Most of it comes down to operating procedures, so no matter how small the bug may be, there is a certain minimum amount of time it'll take (few hours).

America >> Korea "SOOOOOO....we fucked up again..."
Korea >> America "

 .......

>Cue Super Koreans to find/fix bug, then sends patch to America.

All is saved.

 >NexonAM the entire time during the downtime.
