Seeing as the time is midnight to 2am, or for Sweden 1am to 3am, I would assume it's MA's ISP doing the maintenance.

An ISP would most likely try and do such work when most of their customers are asleep in bed. Avoids all the complaint Phone calls & irate customers.
MA on the other hand would probably do in-house maintenance work during office hours, to avoid overtime rates.
An ISP can afford the overtime more than it can afford the irate customers, and probably has people available to do work at night 24/7 to start with.

All the same, nice of MA to give notice.

Umm. Isn't UTC the same as MA time? So Midnight to 2am for MA

Ah that is helpful

UTC and MA time is the same, but MA office is in a different timezone. Don't know how they experience it, but i guess it would be 02:00 - 04:00 am in Sweden.

Thanks for setting me straight

I made the incorrect assumption that UTC = EU = Swedish time. I see i was wrong in the 3rd place

Now let's see... How many "Servers down????"-threads are we going to see?

Eh you won`t even be able to tell the difference from being knocked offline for no particular reason or for server maintenance anyhow. What I hope is to get dropped less after it`s all done. Been happening a bit more often for me lately.

Since some time (I was away for about a week), I don't get the yellow floods of "item busy" messages anymore, it seems as it's back to normal.

I do get booted occasionally, "Server status: 0%", and I occasionally see that yellow message once in a while, but right now it looks like they fixed at least that problem.
