    I have never seen Neopets shut servers down for scheduled maintenance before

    It'd be great if they were doing something like updating the battledome. That thing has been needed a do-over since a few years ago.

    Hmm.. I wonder if it'll come back with any cool new changes. I'm glad my time zone is the same as Neo so I won't be up while it happens XD.

    Who's gonna be refreshing to hopefully be the first to restock ??
    I'm wondering if the shop will continue to stock during the downtime.

    It's not going to matter too much because the shops will fill quickly and if nobody is around to buy anything then they will stop stocking

    So even if they do stock while the site is down, the first people online are just going to see a regular restock-ish

    THey did restock and auctions went through during the crash of 04 after their bday. a few people were real mad at having their SoS's sell real cheap. But since it is planned this time, I dunno but i shall be here poised and ready in the magic shop :)

    I'd seriously laugh if they're doing this just to organise the files in their database or something - when people come back with high expectations (or just, expectations), they see no changes at all, anywhere. Hehheh xD

    I'm kind of expecting that, anyway.

    Meh it's happened before, but usually only for an hour or two. I'm curious as well, but I doubt it's anything drastic. Alot of users have been saying it'll be an account purge, but I don't think that would take 6 hours by a program. They're probably just updating infrastructure.

    ...or maybe it could also include a pound pets purge? :eek: That would cause madness!

    I'd actually like a change...Now that'd be something interesting to look forward to if they're planning that.

    But they seriously need to fix the glitches around the site instead of ignoring them like they do ALL the time :K

    Well darn, they finished earlier than they said they would. Tharoux, did you get anything? I checked the shops but nothing stood out. And I don't notice anything different in the battledome...
