Angeló Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 how are we supposed to play YYB then ? ! :ohno: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseykins Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Before sending any scores check and see if the site is loading by loading a totally different page. If the page loads send your score, that way you're not wasting your time. :) Aquamentis12, FoolishFancy, hrtbrk and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rntracy1 Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 This is totally ridiculous. They haven't had any site maintenance forever. Now, during AC, they decide to do 2 days worth of site maintenance. They do this all the time. They do it during the end of the obelisk, during AC, during poogle day, which they never had like they said they would. I am so tired of this. This has been going on for almost a year now. Thanks for listening to me vent. :sick01: Hannah., Aquamentis12, rowtiderow and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kandygrrl Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I honestly yelled with outrage when I discovered this because it is bad enough when I press the wrong thing while playing Yooyu Ball and then I lose everything. Why now though? Shouldn't Jumpstart just work during the night? Oh well... Hopefully none of my scores get rejected TT^TT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelperk Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 Well, isn't this ridiculous? I've been away for so long and this makes me feel grumpy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted June 2, 2015 Share Posted June 2, 2015 I'm sure they'd not be doing this during AC unless they had absolutely no choice. Because they'll be well aware that people will be reacting in a less than happy manner.

hrtbrk Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 They could be optimizing AC things, so hang in there. I'm sure they're aware as to what is going on :) Duskitty and Mouseykins 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twilight790 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Noooo! Must. play. Yooyuball. lol I've been doing lots of AC work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquamentis12 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 If anything, they COULD have pushed the AC back a month, or even a couple of weeks instead of doing it day 3 out of what is probably the biggest, and one of the most tedious, annual site event they do! Like it has already been said, they COULD have done it before the AC even started. Oh well, not so great time-management, I suppose. -_- HOPEFULLY The intermittent down-times won't interfere too badly with the YYBing, also, it WOULD be nice if whatever they are working on improved things. I guess if things get better after the 48 hour period, then it'll be worth some frustration with having to replay games and whatnot. It would be nice though, if TNT could whittle that down to CERTAIN blocks of time that the site will be offline. So we can play around those times.

TwistedRose Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 So much for me starting faerie quest fortune cookie 4 days ago then :mellow: And me playing the altador cup too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrtbrk Posted June 3, 2015 Author Share Posted June 3, 2015 Turns out it is their server provider and unavoidable. You can still use your cookie, TwistedRose. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseykins Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 The downtime won't be for 2 days straight, just sporadically over that time frame. Like hrtbrk said they could be optimizing AC things. I wouldn't worry too much about the interruptions. At least they're doing it now and not the last few days of the AC. They are being courteous by letting us know ahead of time what's taking place. I'm sure they don't want to take the site down anymore then we want to have our AC interrupted. It's just a case of unfortunate timing, as hrtbrk stated above. Chin up everyone! :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karenna19 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Darn, and during AC season! Oh well, maybe it will make me do the actual work I have :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marae19 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 I don't quite agree with their timing of doing this on day 3 and 4 of the AC, but I'm assuming that it's unavoidable, because they're doing it on those days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jellysundae Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Turns out it is their server provider and unavoidable. I imagine they're wanting to string their provider up right about now then! Poor Jumpstaff, all the ire that's going to be aimed at them about this, when it's not even their fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeniem55 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Hopefully, the updates won't be long updates and the sporadicness doesn't affect too many people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mouseykins Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Just so everyone is clear, that JumpStaff is not trying to sabatoge the AC by having downtime, here's what they posted in yesterday's news. SITE MAINTENANCE: Neopets.com will be experiencing sporadic periods of downtime during a 48 hour maintenance window, starting at 8AM NST on Wednesday, June 3rd 2015 with unpredictable service interruptions through the morning of June 5th. Scheduled maintenance is being performed by our server provider, and is not exclusive to the Neopet's site. As things are, we are not able to postpone or reschedule the possibility of downtime in this 48 hour period of time. However, while we are offline, we invite all of our fans to stay up to date with the latest news from TNT by following us on Facebook or Twitter So there's nothing they can do about the downtime. Their service provider just picked an inconvenient time to do some maintenance. If you're worried about losing your game scores then refresh a different page in a different tab, if Neo loads then send your score on through. Saves wasting your time and a high score if you get one and it doesn't go through because the site isn't responding. :) Aquamentis12 and jellysundae 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaotic_fashion Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Is it down for everyone right now?? I was REALLY hoping to train my pet and play AC xD eh..the one year I actually can/want to play...I can't lol. I find that extremely funny 0:-) mtsparky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtsparky Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Oh, it's down still. I wanted to play a few games before I have to live in the real world. Its time consuming already but I only RSed for a hour earlier, 1/2 day. Arg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cookielover1989 Posted June 3, 2015 Share Posted June 3, 2015 Thanks for the heads up! I was wondering why I couldn't access Neopets even when my other sites were working :P! Darn.. Was there any warning earlier? I could've finished my "Things-to-do" list earlier if I knew -.-... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowtiderow Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 No, and on FB they just basically keep saying because they're not in charge of it, they can't give any specifics. It's been down for a solid two hours already. I could have had so many YYB games done by nowwwwww. And there were bonus points for my team on SS, so this is pretty frustrating. I know they say they can't help it, and I understand that, but I'm really hoping that they'll at least give us another day of play time because of this inconvenience. brakebills 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brakebills Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 i'm honestly so bummed :( trying not to refresh too much haha chaotic_fashion and rowtiderow 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowtiderow Posted June 4, 2015 Share Posted June 4, 2015 Ditto. Every time I refresh and it still isn't working, I die a little on the inside. Okay, not really, but kind of. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
