what is wrong with my character name?

I wonder exactly how complicated FFXI's drop tables are. Go in...delete items from monster drop table (or reive reward drop table if it's that) and done...

I just read in the Japanese forum they estimate 4:30 jst saturday

Sure, then the problem with going through every character to see who got drops and deleting them.

Notice of all World emergency maintenance work (7/13): follow-up 3
I will inform you of the situation for emergency maintenance work which is being performed currently. We carried out a detailed investigation continues, but the prospect of maintenance end does not stand even doing this time. As soon as there is progress on the situation, I will inform you again. I deeply apologize that we are apologize for any inconvenience to customers. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　Symbol undecided end time from Saturday, 4:30 July 13, 2013: Date & Time 　　　　For ※ scheduled end time, I inform you through

To hell with deleting drops...it's their screw-up. Let the people keep the items. Especially if it's a wildskeeper reive issue. You take that item and that person just wasted their bayld on no drop because SE can't program their way out of a wet paper bag. It isn't the same as the Salvage duping because you can't control what loot drops into the pool and have no idea that it's not supposed to be in the game. I doubt it's the capes because they'd have done this three days ago. Capes were dropping like candy the same night as the update and they've updated twice subsequently for other reasons.

Hmmmmm, this was posted with all 3 JP Follow posts, how come we get left in the dark. EU got 2 Follows and hey NA with 1..........

日　時：2013年7月13日(土) 4:30より終了時間未定

4:30pm JST would be written as 16:30 JST.

4:30 (assuming 24 hour clock) on Saturday is the time it went down.

The 4:30 JST would in fact be AM, since 3:30PM EDT was when the servers went down...

48 more hours

Little Johnny's mule gets an item it wasn't supposed to and the servers go down most of the day during weekend prime time. I'm having a really hard time believing that the handful of items that entered into the game during the *entire week* was so game breaking that this couldn't have waited until Monday. Turn off the offending events, let us play, and deal with it on Monday.

So has one of the 4 programmers woken up yet?

It's 11:22 AM in Japan they should of been at work at 9.

Not on a Saturday

This waiting around is preparation for the queuing you will have to do if you want to pop fafnir in the next 6 months. Btw re; RMT farming wine etc. from the lol-in INT-insult event, I wonder why SE implemented this during the mogbonanza months where RMT have their dormant chars activated for the MB month, this is the only 2 months when they get all the empty chars reactivated to buy/claim marbles, so giving them 2x honey wine (etc.) per mule for free seems a bit of a mystery to me. Why not wait till August to do the Lol-in, when most ppl including RMT close down all their bonanza mules for another year.

here is a google translation of the latest from SE

I will inform you of the situation for emergency maintenance work which is being performed currently.

A result of the investigation, in Battlefield in the "rock peaks Horure", failure has occurred to the setting of the drop items, in addition to (appear under the name "..." ※) unimplemented items, then drop in the normal we check the status of items never is dropping. In addition, we confirm that the problem has not occurred in the area and other Battlefield other than "rock peaks Horure".

For this reason, for the area other than "rock peaks Horure", will end the maintenance work around 13:00. For "rock peaks Horure", preparation of bug fixes to complete continue, we will continue to maintenance work. End time concrete, will be announced as soon as determined.

I deeply apologize that we are apologize for any inconvenience to customers.

Chronicle

Up to 13:00 time from Saturday, 4:30 July 13, 2013: Date and Time
※ "rock peaks Horure" only pending completion time
Will continue the maintenance work.

FFXI goes offline so people can go play FFXIV beta... lol!

So it will be up at 1pm in Japan. The game was taken offline due to a malfunction in one zone?

Not sure how Adoulin broke Horlais Peak lol. But hurray for an estimated end time.

That's what it looks like, and it looks like it's entirely due to an improper drop table on the server.

So it was items from the wildskeeper reive in the Ravine?

that is what it looks like just so peopl knows its 12:35 in japan as i post this

Ohh Horlais Peak lol

There's something flawed when we have to translate the JP forums to get answers when we're on the official forums.
Oh wait, nobody care's about gaijin

just a moment ago i found the NA post for this

http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxi/th...-%28Jul.-12%29

I now feel less informed than when I started.

Basically, some "."s were dropping in Horlais Peak and this was apparently so impendingly disastrous to game BARANCE that the whole servers had to be taken down for hours immediately to isolate and eradicate the cause.
