Downtime Ahead
We're off to new servers, and, as a result, the game will experience some downtime. Yes, for a short but terrifying period, the internet will be without NationStates. Somehow we will all just have to find the will to soldier on.
There are two parts to NationStates: the game and the forums. The game will be unavailable for a fairly brief period, while the forums, which are being completely replaced, will be down for longer.
Here are the details. The entire site will be down for approximately three hours beginning Monday 28th June 2004 08:00 GMT (click for the time where you live). When it comes up, it will look all swanky and new!
The forums will go down at the same time and remain unavailable for approximately 72 hours. When they come up again, they will be part of the Jolt forums, look very different, and not crash every five seconds. There will also be some functional changes.
Watch this page for updated news as it comes to hand!
Please note: the move to new servers (and forums and software) is a big step, and technology being what it is, there may be a hiccup or two. If so, please don't panic; we'll get everything sorted out eventually.

72 hours, i cant last that long. I demand that something is done. Dam NS has taken over my life but its good to know a date for the move. But 3 days how are we supposed to survive.
Also when the forums are back up and running, will all the original threads be there such as my ESUS shivan war?

As long as InvisionFree and EsperNet don't suffer downtime, I think I can make it through the forum downtime...but taking the game down for a full three hours? That's just insane. ;)
*notes with interest that the downtime will occur during the regular morning server update*

Yeah as long as the offsite forums work, I should be ok without NationStates. But still, I may need to see a psychologist.

You know when I first saw the topic, I was like,
??
someone is making a social event out of the move?
do I need a Date for it?
I wonder if LR is free?
