I have a query about updates that i couldn't find answered on the FAQ's.

I thought updates occured between 5:55 and 10:00am GMT, however i cannot find one region that has been updated yet and was just wondering if the system has changed at all?

When the forums are down, update slows down. Sorry if that screws up your gameplay plans.

We're now offering a triple-your-money-back guarantee for anyone inconvenienced by these forum outages. The moeny will be deposited directly into the account from which you pay your game fees, so you don't even have to ask. Such service! Such nice guys!





It's a joke, son, a joke. We're not sending you any money, 'cause you never sent us any either.

Sarcasm noted. There is more that slows updates. Not just forum problems. Seems like the update randomness is finally kicking in. And yes, it screws up my gaming plans as well.

Awww your too kind. ;)

Can you tell me if their is any kind of order to which regions get updated, are the regions updated in size order, i.e, the biggest first? :)

Nope, can't tell you. I believe the word "random" has been bandied about.

These forums are getting real annoying, now that they're even impacting the actual game. What's the deal with the forums?

They've always impacted the game. We just don't mention it all that much, because it's sorta obvious when you look at your nation page.

As to your second amorphous question, there are all sorts of recent posts about them in this very forum. Read.

Ya think?

Anyway, Updates are random. I don't think the size effects the update time at all.
