    As most of you guys know, the game servers were taken down last night because of the Ragnarok Online Server Merge. It’s amazing how hard technical stuff can be for MMORPGs! Anyway, the Gravity Engineers from Gravity and our IT Team has been working non-stop since midnight and at times it really looked like they were in a war room. I didn’t bother asking for updates then because it looked like they were really stressed out. Since it’s already 8AM, I decided to go up to Andy and get an update. So far we have good news. Read on to get the full update and the transcript of our conversation.

    Wauks: Hi Andy!
    Wauks: How’s everything so far?
    Andy Gravity: just finished
    Wauks: wow
    Wauks: are you serious
    Wauks: @_@
    Wauks: so early!!
    Andy Gravity: thats from our side
    Andy Gravity: payletter has to work on giving game time to players
    Andy Gravity: and we still need to test
    Wauks: ah ok ok
    Wauks: were there any problems?
    Wauks: or was the merge smooth
    Andy Gravity: smooth
    Andy Gravity: we can start testing now

    The account splitting was a success and only a few people actually had split accounts. Most of the gamers were able to reduce their characters and kafra storage so that they wouldn’t have more accounts. We’ve already submitted the list of accounts to our billing provider so that they can insert the 2 hours load into the split accounts. The servers are also rather okay at this point but we still need to confirm that in 30 minutes when the Game Play Specialists and the GM Team of Level-up start their testing. As soon as I get more relevant updates from them, I’ll post it here. I’ll also try to get pictures, hehe!

    So far, so good. Hopefully everything else goes smoothly.

      next hopefully “smooth” thing is the account character extension….

      are we half way already? or are we just starting on this “smoothness”?

      i think testing is just the beginning part…

      TRIAL AND ERROR

      See trial or testing is the first part, let’s see if there’s an error.

      anyway, goodluck!
