So basically, what happened is that some uneducated construction dredger operator cut the cable, and killed server access..

I though stuff like that happens only in my home country..

Good job PGI with the Premium time injection and event extension. Way to handle a bad situation..

Also, thanks to Bobby Jubraj from customer service on a quick response after I reported the issue...

In my head there's the mice surveillance droids in Star War eating the cable, then an Elemental coming by with a flamer to scare them off. 3rd shift thoughts are the best sometimes.

and the surveillance droids laughing about the flamer cause of freakin no dmg?!?!?

I demand compensation!!! ... no, not for the server outtake, for having to sit through 3 hours of battletech trivia quiz in our team speak group... my poor brain...

example? (paraphrased from memory)

"Which colour had the mech piloted by Katherine Steiner's husband?"

Spoiler

trick question, she never married...
do not mix her up with Katrina...

There are now officially (in my book) people who know more obscure facts than the ones being able to answer the famous "What are the names of the fish in Picard's aquarium?" question...

Thats sounds like a fun quiz. What unit are you from? I wish my unit did that in down time.


Good work as always PGI, thanks for giving me an extra day for farming out the last of my halloween bags. Woo! <3 <3 <3

If you refer to Katherine Steiner-Davion... That we know of She may have married Vlad Ward... Though that is incredibly unlikely... To the best of my knowledge the remainder of her story was never filled in. I imagine she would have shown up in the Jihad era novels, if they had ever been written...

Also... There is another Katherine Steiner from the mid 25th century who was Archon after her husband, Alistair Marsden, died. He was a tank commander, though, so it's still a trick question
