Slight Change of Plan

We had a major hardware failure today on our development server. That's the server we use to create and test out new content. As a result, we are not currently able to continue development on the expansion, and there are several things that need to be finished before tomorrow.

So, what we are going to have to do is temporarily shut down the main sleuth server so we can finish up that development work and still launch the expansion tomorrow. The reason we are doing this is because we need to use the main server to finish working on the expansion.

SO, the sleuth server will be coming down at Sunday night 7 p.m. MDT (server time) and will remain down until approximately 3 p.m. Monday, when we will open it up again, with all of the new content for the expansion.

It's unfortunate that we have to do it this way, but it's our only choice if we want to get the expansion out by tomorrow.

In accordance with our subscription policy, all current subscribers will be credited with an extra full day on their subscriptions.

RECOMMENDATION!!!

To all of those who haven't had a chance to finish their cases:

DO IT NOW!!!

This is the last day of the Sleuth you've come to know for over a year. Tomorrow everything will be brand new and updated. I, myself, will shed a small tear tonight, seeing the interor of the 'classic' Sleuth for the last time. This IS unfortunate, like Ben has stated.

But, I suppose nothing much will change. I'm being a bit melodramatic right now, but I really will miss the old Sleuth. Even though the new expansion will be twice as good.

*Sigh* At least I'll have a chance to do something, knowing Sleuth will be unplayable until the new expansion.

*Goes off to finish his last set of cases before Shadow of the Villains*

The 'old Sleuth' you know isn't really the 'old Sleuth.'

The REALLY old Sleuth can still be seen if you play the Tutorial.

Actually, the really old sleuth had a pink background. I should put up old screenshots some time.

Pink... *tries to remember if he'd seen that or not*


I'm just saying that you can still see even older Sleuth versions around.


*ducks with cfm as he yells* FLASHING NEON PINK!
