Why this time of night? Why not 4 in the morning? Ugh.
Fuck, i just ranked up in MW2.
[QUOTE=JolKally;20032679]Fuck, i just ranked up in MW2.[/QUOTE] Unlucky, Anyone know what the update will include or will we have to wait?
I just bought Far Cry and now I can't play it, "failed to contact key server" :argh:
Meh, was idling in TF2, and still am.
[quote=Steam]The schedule maintenance for Steam is now underway and will last three hours at most ending at 9:00 PM Pacific time.[/quote] Now watch as it doesn't get finished until 7 tomorrow evening.

Argh, now I don't have anything to do. I might have to... study or something.
what exactly are they working on??
Great, not until 11 here. This sucks.
This gives me a reason to hate Steam. As much as its great for some things, the crashes and downtimes piss me off
[QUOTE=jason278;20032986]This gives me a reason to hate Steam. As much as its great for some things, the crashes and downtimes piss me off[/QUOTE] Are you fucking serious? There is almost never any downtime on Steam.
OH god I just want to look at how much I've wasted my life on steam but I can't I guess I'll play some steam games.
[QUOTE=flippy645;20032812]what exactly are they working on??[/QUOTE] According to the original announcement, software maintenance on their servers. [editline]08:43PM[/editline] Nothing more specific.
Because every other 2 seconds that steam community is down is for useful proposes...
[QUOTE=Nyaos;20032657]Why this time of night? Why not 4 in the morning? Ugh.[/QUOTE] Do you want to do maintenance for valve at 4 am so that a few time zones can sleep through it?
[QUOTE=DogGunn;20032794][img]http://storefront.steampowered.com/v/gfx/maintenence.gif[/img] I like the image.[/QUOTE] Valve can be very artistic but lately they've been lacking ( Ever since EP2 imo they haven't been very artsy :c ).
[QUOTE=jason278;20032986]This gives me a reason to hate Steam. As much as its great for some things, the crashes and downtimes piss me off[/QUOTE] I cant remember steam having any proper downtime (not including the years friends didn't work, or the times steam community has died for half an hour) where all of steam has gone down in all the years I have been using it.
I hate when this happens :(
I hate that this is my only free day in the week and this happens...sigh..oh well.
[QUOTE=DogGunn;20032794][img]http://storefront.steampowered.com/v/gfx/maintenence.gif[/img] I like the image.[/QUOTE] They're having downtime to fix the triangle.
Bah, I'm not good at math, nor all this conversion crap If it's -7 GMT over here in Arizona, what time will the maintenance be finished -7 GMT time? Thanks! -coffee
Well, at least Borderlands doesn't use Steam servers.
[QUOTE=windwakr;20034685]10PM in your time. Seriously, your time zone is right fucking next to theirs. You SHOULD know this stuff.[/QUOTE] Bah, I do agree with your statement. However, I don't understand how they're 'PST' I know GMT - Greenwich Mean Time (Or something like that) I know PST - Pacific Standard Time (or something like that) However, I don't understand how to convert these two. ANYWHO, thanks for telling me. I still must wait aboot an hour from now, precisely 51 minutes. I really want to try out this AvP demo. It's not letting me play since it's a multiplayer demo. BUT HEY, who cares! Aslong as I get to play as an Alien, I'm cool :D

The opposite also applies, IE: Atlantic time is GMT - 4 which is an hour ahead of Eastern time and 4 hours ahead of Pacific time.

Let's not forget that it's valve time too. My guess is they'll be a few hours late.

There's only four time zones in the continental US and they go like this, from west to east: Pacific Standard Time (PST) - Mountain Standard Time (MST) - Central Standard Time (CST) - Eastern Standard Time (EST) You are in MST. So you are one hour ahead (+1) of Valve. That means you add one hour to any time given to you in PST. They didn't teach you this in school?
Should be up now. It isn't. Steam I am dissapoint.
. . .and does this surprise anyone at all?
