    Big Wheel and Mixboards Returning!

    02/09/2011
    The Big Wheel and Mixboard will be making their way back to our servers come 2/10/2011 maintenance and there will be one major difference from before all costumes obtained via the Big Wheel and Mixboard will be PERMANENT.

    That's right no more timers running out, no more need to pay for extension.

    All items purchased through the Big Wheel and Mixboard prior to this update will still have timers and be able to be extended after the 2/10 patch. Expired Item will no longer be accepted into the Mixboard.

    Due to items in the Mixboard and Big Wheel becoming permanent and requiring no extension costs, the price of W-Coins will be increasing after 2/10/2011. W-Coins purchased before the patch however will still be valid, so purchase what you can before the patch to ensure you pay the lowest price.

    February ISP Work Schedule: Possible network downtime

    02/08/2011
    We have been made aware of several important ISP work plans that may have an impact on network performance for all our titles and Websites.  Our ISP has recognized a possible issue with their routers that run their backbone network lines, and are taking steps to fix the problem in an orderly and quick fashion to prevent a bad degradation in service or disconnection down the road.

    Where we fit in this plan is any router that is updated must be taken down for 3 hours or so, which makes traffic reroute to other routers so the network traffic continues.  When such rerouting is done it usually is accompanied by a change in traffic speed because of the longer route and possible capacity issues with the new route.  Furthermore if that router is very close to our servers it is possible no route is available and we will be "blacked out" while the update is taking place.

    Our ISP plans on doing these ISP maintenances through February. Many of you may have noticed a network drop late January, that was the symptom that started the ISP investigation and plan to fix it before it happens again.  Below are the known ISP maintenances that have the best chance of directly affecting our service availability.

    • February 9 : 2am - 5am  Possible Black out, and/or suboptimal routing (Latency)
    • February 21 : 2am - 5am  Possible Black out, and/or suboptimal routing (Latency)

    Please note that during February there is a strong likelihood of intermittent problems in the morning hours due to these updates taking place throughout our ISP network.
