Here is the exact message as we received it on our end:

There is a major power issue at the Datacenter affecting most of our equipment. Miraculously, our server is not one of them. Unfortunately, our resolvers are down which is why e-mail is unable to leave the server (working on that).

Colo4 is aware of the situation and is working to restore power to everything as soon as possible. Unfortunately they are unable to provide an ETA, but as you can imagine, it will be back as soon as it is humanly possible.

Problem has been fixed now. It was something that affected millions of sites.

Our apologies for the fuss,
ZE Administration

after crash you should have a 24 hour attack ban. It would not be fair for someone to lose their fleet through no fault of their own.

I believe everyone was without zorg for the time that it was out. And I am glad we got it back up and going.

So my fleet has been crash by gozar of course.
People need to sleep some time.

Why was an attack ban not placed?
Zorg should have been able to imagine this would happen!

REDACTED

Not only my fleet was destroyed, but the number 1 got even stronger.
In my opinion the game should be put on hold right now and a restore should be started to the point of failure.

Kind regards thor
