Initially I thought they'd gone an hour early, but I was wrong. Double checked World Time Server and they were on time.

We need extra time to complete the tourney, us international players. This is not our sleeping time.

The Notification is on the Forum, but I think most people ignored it. It has been up for a while. Hope they allow extra time to finish Tales and Tournament. Americans may be asleep, but for much of the rest of the world, this is our prime playing opportunity!

Exactly! for us it is Daytime and at the moment time is 13:11 hrs.
I do check "Whats New" here on the forum, as you had suggested earlier, but i still did not see any notification regarding the Battles or the Maintenance. God Bless Sam204 who kept me informed.

Maintenance has to be done, no problem with that at all. But they must allow catch up time for international players.

Even as an American, I personally sleep more in the day and I'm up all hours of the night. This is my prime playing time as well and I need to battle for 6 accounts(my family isn't as good at that, so I do it for them) and do Tales tasks for dozens. So it would be nice if we were compensated for time loss with an extension of sorts.

I'm an American with chronic insomnia, I play my games quite often after midnight EST. After a long day of halloween pumpkin carving, getting daughter dressed & made up, trek for treats, etc. I finally get a quiet few moments to catch up on my games. WRONG. This is after trying to find a McDonalds for a breakfast sammich & hash browns. NOPE. All 24hr fast food places are closed. NOOOOooooooo. Hungry belly. No games. No nothing. Now I've lost precious time in DS & FFS. Bad timing. So when I go to sleep & will lose that time ontop of the lost time from a scheduled maintenance. Not cool. Oh. Might I add, that last week, I lost all of my S8 mmorpg accts (that I spent almost 6 years building) when they pulled the plug on those. Feeling very bitter & snarky at the moment. Grrrrrr. Arrrg. Hiss.

Misha, while I understand retiring games due to changes in technology and customer demographics etc, there should be some sort of migration plan/path for long term players.

It is an impertinence that they haven't informed the players with an pop up in the game, not everyone reads the forum every day!!!

And I use to say that the minority is here in this forum.

I lost a lot of progress, especially in the tournament, healing post and crops, I'm extreme pissed off. Who else?

It's not fair they were doing the system maintenance during a flash tournament! I lost two chances to battle and might lose a tournament because of that :(

It's funny you should mention the pop up in games, they used to do this. They were very good about pop ups for maintenance, retired items in games being removed i.e. dragon story, bakery, restaurant, farm. But that was the old storm8/tl. We'd (at least for android, not sure how iOS worked) get a pop up about 2 weeks or so before, to "get yours before it's gone forever". I wish they still did that, because I'm sure many that play these games don't even come on the forum.
