Mmm did I miss something?
I can't reach the official site from work and did not check yesterday, but my question is, was excaliber upgraded yesterday?
If so, can someone copy paste the original text from GOA here.

(Was wondering last night who had repaired Excal doors. If this is true, than this kinda answers it).

We have completed the final tests and everything seems to be working as it should with the new hardware for Excalibur. We will do the upgrade tomorrow, the 10th of July, and the plan is as follows :
Around 9 am BST, the Excalibur server will be taken down.
Around 11 am BST, Excalibur should come back up, running on the new machines.
Around 11.01 am BST, we take a cup of coffee and monitor the server stability.
Please note that the server may need minor adjustments after the upgrade and that the above times are estimates.

That is it in all its simplicity. See you at the raids !

tis today

Pff they probably just replaced the rat spinning the wheel, cos the old one had Artritis
