REMINDER: Next week's downtime will be on Tuesday due to the holiday break. Please plan accordingly.

Holiday Week Downtime Change: Also, due to the Thanksgiving holiday next week’s downtime will take place on Tuesday, November 24 instead of Wednesday, November 25. November’s MOPR will end at that time, so plan accordingly.

We believe that the recent lag issues are due to the system trying to grant promo cards and booster packs at the same time. To address this we will manually grant the promo cards associated with these events. Booster packs will still be given out at the end of an event as normal.

We are sorry for this inconvenience but we believe this is better than dealing with more lag issues.

The system will be down from 8:00 am PDT / 1500 UTC to 1:00 pm PDT / 2000 UTC

The system will go into ‘No Pay’ at 5:00 am PDT / 1200 UTC.
Store and trades will shut off at approximately 7:45 am PDT / 1445 UTC.
This downtime is expected to last approximately 5 hours.

We will have a small build. Here is what you might notice tomorrow:

General

• Forest #156 -Commander Theme Deck: Enchantress Rubinia is now tradeable

User Interface

• Users can now leave clans by right clicking on name
• Now when you press F3, Alt+U, etc while dividing damage, the playing of the spell is properly cancelled and you must start over. This prevents you from accidentally casting a spell divided improperly
