We were down for about 12 hours recently. Yikes! As you may know if you
read the forums, not only Achaea but all of the Iron Realms were down
due to hardware trouble at our ISP. As our ISP promises 100% uptime, we
are not pleased and will be speaking at length with them to discuss what
can prevent this in the future. Such a long unscheduled downtime is
entirely unacceptable. We feel terrible about it, and we apologise to
all of you.

We've given you all a temporary life-enhancing aura which will give you
10% more experience whenever you normally gain experience. Enjoy it, and
thanks for coming back to Achaea.

Penned by my hand on the 17th of Scarlatan, in the year 426 AF.
