Dear Maplers,

We will be performing an unscheduled server maintenance on January 26, 2012 to assure all servers are safely and properly restarted following the stability issues and to extend the Evolving Ring III event. The maintenance will last approximately three hours.

Thank you for your patience, and we apologize for the inconvenience.

-Time-
Thursday, January 26, 2012
Pacific: 5:40 AM - 8:40 AM
Eastern: 8:40 AM - 11:40 AM

-What will be unavailable-

• All MapleStory game servers
  

-Changes and Updates-

• The Evolving Ring III event will be extended. The last day of the event will now be February 3.
  

- The Maple Team -

Oh so that's what this is. Evo ring event is extended, thank god >_<

3 more days? 8 more days till ring 3s are in the market. >.>

Well, glad they're extending it. But what are they doing about the Australian x2?

Also, what the pineapple. They could've at least given some forewarning about this. They just randomly shut it down completely. I killed a Grandpa and got a ring leveled right before it crashed, so I'm probably going to lose getting the card, EXP, and ring.

3 more days? 8 more days till ring 3s are in the market. >.>

Don't they only become tradeable on the final day?

Edit : Derp. I read your sentence wrong. Yeah. I wasn't hoping to keep logging in for much longer. This is annoying.

Why do I fear that by the time Nexon finishes the maintenance, the hackers will have woken up and restarted their antics?

Don't they only become tradeable on the final day?

Not that I'm aware of.. I think once you get it to max level you can get it to tradable even if it isn't the last day. Though if it isn't max level, on the last day you can make any level ring tradable.

edit
seems so

Ah well, I need to finish typesetting this chapter anyway.

Don't they only become tradeable on the final day?

Yeah that's why i said 8 days till they hit the market.

Why do I fear that by the time Nexon finishes the maintenance, the hackers will have woken up and restarted their antics?

I find it funny that not long after Nexon "Removed" a few hacked items, the hackers are raging and trying to dupe and cause as much of an inconvenience as they possibly can.

Well... at least they shutted down the server 5 seconds after i recived my ring pot...

Here's hoping for a (proper) rollback.

I'm leaning towards "fantasy".

Well this is good news, if the stability is fixed. If not, we may not get a 2nd extension

It was actually fixed about an hour before they put the game down. :|

I don't think it was hackers causing this in the first place, just abusing it

I'll file that theory along with my Unicorn sightings evidence. They seem to fit together somehow. x)

Just realised, I grabbed a hired merchant and a few un-all 10atts out of the MTS to sell for some quick mesos last night. Can't wait to sell them all for less than I planned to because of an unpredictable increase in supply (at the time of purchase).

That's assuming you even have them at all when the servers come back up. (the 'r' word been mentioned upthread)

Nexon has a penchant for not rolling back when it is actually needed (in cases like this). Doubt there'll be a rollback at all.
