It was my understanding there wouldn't be a maintenance this week. I was all set to squeeze the last few hours from that cake!

Oh well, I guess it had to end some time. Was good while it lasted.

    Seriously though, did no one else notice the "no PC maintenance for the week of April 11th" banner at the top of the forums until the middle of last night?

    Did someone spill coffee on the hamster whilst we slept to warrant this sudden reversal?

    Inquiring minds!

    Nah, it said 11th April - no PC/Mac maintenance at the top of the banner - ie. no maintenance in the usual Monday slot
    At the bottom it said 12th April - NA PC/Mac patch maintenance, then under it 13th April - EU PC/Mac maintenance

    So it was advertised in advance, just in a way that meant you had to read all the banner to get to the details of today's maintenance.

    It never said that.

    The top line said "week of April 11".

    The next line said no maintenance on April 11. (just plain "April 11", not "week of April 11")

    The lines after that said maintenance on April 12.

    You didn't read past the first two lines. Every time they do a one-off change of the maintenance date, they will say no maintenance on the regular day, and then maintenance on the rescheduled day. So whenever you see "no", you have to keep reading to see if there's a rescheduled date.

    Also, they had announced the rescheduling on Friday:

    It was below that towards the bottom of the list "4/12 PC/NA maintenance". Any time they don't do regularly scheduled Monday maintenance it says at the top "No maintenance" but you always have to read down the list as there may be something scheduled for later in the week.

    Confusing I know and it's got me a few times as well.

    Yeah, I just wish that if they were delaying it anyway they could have delayed it by 8 or so more hours to let people finish off cake week, but eh, it is what it is.

    You must have missed the 3 million threads complaining about lost cake time and the numerous Dev posts about the maintenance being pushed to Tuesday

    Regardless of whether this maintenance was scheduled or not, I feel like Zeno "owes" us an extra day of cake now. Hopefully they feel that way too.
