Quote:At 6:19pm EDT yesterday, the datacenter complex in Virginia that is being used to host the World of Warcraft beta test was hit and damaged by a tornado. Because water was leaking into the building in which our servers were located, we shut down the servers as a precautionary measure and flew out a team of our network engineers to the location to survey the area and provide a preliminary assessment.

Heisenberg said Everything is Uncertain.
Therefore, everything is relatively uncertain.

The datacentre is being repaired as we speak, by a crack team familiar with this sort of thing!

They were apparently successful 'cause the servers are back on line!
