Tomorrow morning we will do the Server Upgrade, I imagine no one has enjoyed the last few days but Dante and I have been working around the clock finding the best possible solution.  We did the entire backup today and have been testing everything as much as possible, so no need to wait at this point with some of the current issues.

Tomorrow this is what will happen
1.  Shut down the server
2.  Backup and move the player data so no information is lost
3.  Start up the new Core
4.  List the IP here so you can start playing while the DNS works its way for the next 24 hours.

Thanks and hopefully this goes as smooth as stated above.

Until the DNS resolves the new IP is
216.52.148.101

hopefully it will be the 4-6 hours estimated from the first time he tried to put the update through, but im sure its hard for him to put a time on it, no telling what will actually happen
early morning, id guess less that 30mins to 1 hour.  most players wont event notice.  you will need the new ip address if the play.uoevolution.com has not propagated when you try to log in.  we will post the new ip asap in the morning when we go live

The server upgrade and OS install went seemlessly, most of you did not even notice:)  The login is still play.uoevolution.com and has already resolved for most players.  If you cannot log in, use our direct IP address in razor to log in today
