At the following time, we will be performing FINAL FANTASY XI maintenance on all worlds. During this period, FINAL FANTASY XI will be unavailable.

Thank you for your patience.

* You may receive errors such as "POL-1160" or "POL-0010" during the download process due to heavy server traffic. If you are unable to access the update, we ask that you please wait a while and then try again. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding in making this a smooth version update.

At least I have to work until 9:00pm(est). Hopefully there wont be no 10hr downloads. Now if I could get X-box to push the maintance back a day on X-BOX live i'll be all set.

I think you can still bet on and watch the races even if you don't participate in them. But then, I'm a Corsair and I'm inclined to gamble.

Hm. FFXI seems loads bigger than other MMOs, even some really good console rpgs. I'm really gonna enjoy this game. And the day before I get the game we're upgrading our cable connection so it's even faster. Doubt I'll have lag. ;o

I never intend on leveling wookworking, dark knight- i've only been to the Den of Rancor like twice. Ifrit's Cauldron? Pfft, I can teleport to Ifrit, and I got tractored into ZM stone. San d'Oria? Bastok? Yeah, as if i'd ever betray windurst (which is better anyway).

Diabolos? I'm not a SMN, and even if I were, i'm not that far along in COP, and even if I were, i'm not 75! Why should I have to download an update for him?

FFXI is an MMO. it has updates. you might not need them. get used to it.

Wookworking? Is that what Chewbacca does in FFXI? LOL

Seriously, it seems like woodworking is the best word for typos out there. I've seen workworking, wwodworking, woddworking, woodwroking, woodwokring and the list goes on.

I vote Woodworking for typo president!

Don't act like you've never worked wodd, Haggai.

Euro players value for money ftl.

How many maintenances is that this month already and lost primetime EU hours?

Re: All Worlds Maintenance (Mar. 28)

I bet I misspelled that because of the tonguetwister aspect.

and griz, SE will start treating EUs like people the instant you guys have a decent playerbase. Are you doing your part to spread FFXI fandom in europe? Go ahead, pass out five copies of the Vana'diel Collection 2007 to random people.

Funny you should mention that, they never released the 2007 Collection over here.
