Could we have a warning when we are in-game that the server is about to be shut down?

Giving players a 15 minute grace period to finish up whatever games are in progress before shut down would be nice to have and something I have seen in other games.

Just a thought after being kicked out in the middle of what was promising to be an interesting match.

Edit: Inserted poll

Edit2: Confirmed will be implemented by Bryan Eckman in NGNG podcast #64 00:25:04

Would like a warning before they shut servers down to. Happend to me serverl times recently, in a middle of a good match then they take servers down.

I agree with a 15 minute warning, gives you time to finish up a match or to decide not to join one if you know you don't have enough time to finish.

It should be there anyways, especially for emergency server updates, like what happened weeks or months ago with regards to ELO deployment.

I would like to see some sort of warning system implemented for emercency maintenance. I've been in the midst of a game only to have the server unexpectantly shut down, leaving everyone annoyed and waiting for the servers to come back up. It would be nice to see a warning system implemented for maintenance that is not regularly scheduled.
