Just looking to verify the exact date / time that houses will open, from second # 1

I think that there were in depth total calculations made a few pages back. I'm not sure who's was the most definitive though. I haven't personally done maintenance calculations in addition to the original 45 day / hour calculations, so I'm not 100% sure.

Or not. Will they count scheduled times for the maintenance ? Or real times ? Because often, the servers are up before the end of the scheduled time...

I don't understand why SE would do something so stupid as to cater to people who have already unsubbed, on top of giving them a whole month to log in and reclaim their houses for free. It completely defeats the point of reclamation as a method of getting people to resub, and can potentially lose subs as a result.

Agree wholeheartedly with you hun, but the times given definitely don't include maint and they need to be accounted for. I'm only on now just to be on the safe side in case they screwed up somewhere.

Given all the venting I've seen about the free log in event on Reddit and not to mention a friend of mine used hers to keep her house under her name, I can assure you I and many other players haven't forgotten. I'm extremely confident of that the fact that there will at least be some people who have completely lost interest in the game and have no intention of coming back, so didn't use the free log in to extend their tenancy.

Agreed, Lilithium. If they care they have plenty of opportunities to come claim their house. I don't think allowing an extra 20-30 hours on top for maint isn't going to affect their ability to get back on in time to reclaim their tenancy, whereas it's created a massive headache for hundreds of players left in the cold by SE's poorly implemented housing system.

You take the time when servers were down for and add it all into the 45 day timer.

James, what she's trying to say is that the announced amount of time that servers are going to be down for maintenance isn't always accurate because often times maintenance finishes earlier than the original announced time of expected completion.... Meaning it could throw it off tremendously and not be rounded off to an actual hour or 30 minute mark.

Yep. And it could also be different times for each servers...

Honestly I think they should add an icon or something to at least show which houses are at risk/being demolished

that be to easy just like giving us a time when to expect them to be reclaim
