From the time servers went up until now, no I haven't. A lot of people were saying the same thing in chat rooms. It seems to get stuck alot on downloading the text patch of the update; if it gets to that point.

For anyone having this particular issue who doesn't want to download the patch directly from elsewhere: I recommend turning off all thingies that aren't the vanilla POL thingy until you've successfully updated. After downloading the update, most thingies will work fine.

Except the teacup thingy, but that's always been a thingy to use at one's own peril anyway.

Yes, all of us Americans are lazy and unemployed. Oh, and SE is racist.

I believe you.

I give up now. @.@

Got my download to work around 11:30 PM EST last night. I know FF11 might not make that much money but I would think it make enough so SE could upgrade their server's capabilities from time to time.

may not necessarily be an issue with SE's servers. There could be an ISP/infrastructure issue as well. Some regions are prone to throttling or otherwise have issues with high loads. My downloads from the Asian regions can range from 1 Mbps to 6Mbps depending on the time of day....from the same servers. Likewise, sometimes I get updates from SE over 2Mbps, sometimes it's 200kbps.

Just saying...there's a lot at play here, and ramping up their network/servers may not necessarily fix the issue. And before someone pulls out Redmond or something like that....this is a company based in a region that is known to have some issues with high load international traffic.

Probably a PoL thing anyway, and nothing to do with SE.
