MOMENTARY LAPSE OF CONNECTION ON TUESDAY

by Hazed

Our cloud service provider, Melbourne, suffered a power problem which took down their routers for a short time during the day on Tuesday. As a result, network connection to their services were lost. That means you may have been disconnected from Fed and unable to log back on again.

The game itself kept on running happily, it’s just that people couldn’t get to it!

It wasn’t just Fed that was affected: all of the services that use their systems found themselves cut off from the world.

The problem was fixed after a couple of hours.

Extended reset on Monday

On a related note: the reset on Monday will take a bit longer than normal so that Alan can take a full off-site backup.
