I deeply feel for the tragedy that occurred in Japan and I'm not upset in anyway that the game will be unavailable for an undetermined period of time. My full support to them and the fact that they shut down their servers to conserve energy. This was a charitable act on SE's behalf.

However, they should have multiple data servers throughout the world, not in one location... This is a single point of failure problem many businesses should recognize. Especially with an international customer base. I realize this is an old game and that they probably haven't taken advantage of cloud technology & virtualization... oh well!

See you guys in game soon.

Cheers,
Perrin
