    I noticed the banner just changed from in progress to extended so they must have encountered something that has delayed their estimate. :)

    They never used to even give us an estimated finish time. And unfortunately that's all this is - an estimate. As for natch potes, this is just for the hotfix they made a post about.

    Yep. This is why they never gave us an estimate for the longest time. Stuff happens, it takes longer, and some people immediately start the OMG THE DEVS LIED FIX YOUR POS GAME LAWYERS LAWSUITS COMPENSATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I wouldn't start complaining till 10am EST goes by. ZOS is famous for going over the limits they set. Let's just hope they get the grouping fixed once and for all.

    [EXTENDED]
    And good luck with them fixing that has never worked properly from the beginning.

    Nine times out of ten they're done beforehand. Sometimes by 15 minutes, sometimes by 2 hours (anyone with curiosity would be familiar). Last time it was right on the button.

    This is different with the holiday and the xmas break problems still plaguing everything (and that includes what happens to personnel over that break).

    I'm guessing since the ability to group stopped existing yesterday they are unable to test the group finder issues they solved with the patch 😅 how can they give patch notes if they are rewriting the patch as we speak? Patience in all things, even in tamriel.

    I got up at 5am did my hiring downloads, crafting writs, went banking, updated my guild traders, then got my dailies set to do when I log in. :)

    I was really hoping i didnt have to switch sets, but there is just no way around it, they are too good. Ancient dragonguard + new moon is just absurdly good.

    :shrug: Yes, the maintenance is done when its done, and if problems crop up it will take longer. However there are posters who, if an estimated time is given, will immediately grab pitchforks and torches if things aren't back up at 1 minute past the estimate. Those people never bothered to notice when they finished early.

    Not mad just annoyed since the last 2 maintenance times have been when I had a day off work.

    Doing it on a holiday is not a good idea on ZOS part.

    For the record, I was not making that post to defend them. I don't see getting done early as a "treat for us" given that no one's realistically going to check to see if they can get in early. For the vast majority, you give us a time when you're done, we show up at that time. [EXTENDED] is no bueno.

    What so ever.

    United States, some of the government offices and schools do. I work at a newspaper and part of our building is rented out to some local university offices. When I pulled in this morning, the parking lot was so empty I had to double-check my phone to make sure it wasn't Sunday (even though I knew it couldn't be because I'd watched trader flip last night, which is always Sunday).

    To be fair MLK day should be a national holiday in the US.

    OK we've now figured out the reason for the extension. Zos wants clickbait-y controversy over the holiday and why it exists.

    I want a martian server.

    My ping is in the millions and we have an holiday all month in January.

    My DPS is -1000 I actually heal the mobs when hitting them and I keep getting kicked from groups. WHY?

    It is.

    More than just government takes the day off, many utilities do as well. Most larger businesses will if it does not impact the core business functions. I work for a very large utility (dozens of large power plants) and MLK is a hard day off, heck veterans day and the day we vote are both floaters but MLK is one of the core off days.

    Voting should also be a holiday, forcing people to work during that is just silly.
