Service window: Lightning server

[Laanders]

There will be some maintenance done to the server hosting lightning later today. We will aim to minimize impact on the game. However, from 17:00 game time and a few hours ahead, lightning server may be unavailable for periods of time. A message will follow here when the work is completed.

The work on the machine hosting lightning has been completed, and everything should be up and running. There was an eight minute downtime from 19:01 to 19:09.

The server's IP address has changed. This should not have any effect on a vast majority of users, but just for completeness, the new address is 122.147.47.142.

If anyone has trouble getting on at this point, you're probably using a badly updating DNS server/cache. It should resolve itself eventually, but feel free to post and ask for community assistance too.
