It has been about a year since I've played out MTGO. Lets hop on and give v3 a whirl. See if it is as bad as people say.

This downtime is expected to last approximately 4 hours.
Ok, nothing out of the ordinary there. Should be down from roughly 11:00am - 3pm Eastern.

We are experiencing some database issues and for now the estimated downtime will be an hour (or more) longer than estimated.
Huh. Pretty minor. Most MMO downtimes seem to run over at least a bit.

I have just been told that we have some major database corruption and it needs to be fully restored from the backup.
I have been told to announce that this will take 8 hours to repair before we can go live.
You've still got it, MTGO. See you in '09.
