    Thumbs up

    For people who lost something I feel empathy. For the Modies I hope the recent defense improvement is a good sign of things to come. Give the defenders a chance is all we ask. As for the error of sorts. It happens. As go figure with technology even growing but not as fast as the user base of the free game. Look at Ever Quest, WOW and Wizard of the Coast type supported on line gaming. See how many times they crash. The response time from Evony on this issue was perfectly fast as they could be and there reply to make up for it and make things right. Simply said right on the money.

    Way to go tech support and Moddies.
    Yes, I pay some for Evony Coins and I say good job. As well done Evony crew.

    Wow, I can't believe everyone is so nice today. You can't get on for 3 hrs so Evony sends out some gifts. Last Month we couldn't get on for 10+ hours and we don't even get a sorry. All I got was was 1 reply from the 3 evony representatives I wrote to directing me to a forum post for a similar situation that happened weeks before that one.

    Could this little show have anything to do with Evony's call for people to write nice things about them and have them published. Is this blood money from them to ensure that good things are posted online about how great Evony is.
    Don't get me wrong I'm sure we'll get the coins and amulets. Who doesn't love amulets. I finally got my first Michealangelo script off of a spin. In 4 months of playing on 4 servers that is pretty sweet. Of course you can keep the 50 junior battalions I've recieved. I wonder which payment we'll recieve first. Will we recieve this payout or the prize for voting in the Queen of Evony contest first?

    I find myself spending less and less time on Evony and useless feel good bribes like this aren't making me want to go back to spending hours and hours on the game anymore. Instead of a feel good bribe how about addressing some of the ideas players have been clamoring for. I want to know why the exchange items button for iEvony still says coming soon. When is soon? Is it soon like the announcement for the Queen of Evony contest. (I was beginning to feel like it was the Minnesota Senate Race between Al Franken and Norm Coleman.) I sent out the invites and I got credits. Why can't I use them? Maybe they could look into a staple of virtually every RPG game's store. When you collect a bunch of useless items or equipment you can go to the store and sell them back for a fraction of their value to buy something more usefull to you. I would really like to trade in the 3 change ID items that are pretty useless to me and I have a guy in my alliance who is looking to dump the 2 Ritual of Pacts that he is holding since we have 98 members in the alliance. When do we get to hear about something useful?

    Evony does something nice for us and you whine about it. Way to go. Epic fail.

    I think this is a nice way to pay back the users who lost things from this downtime.
    Whether it was leaving their tax on 100 and coming back to a reduced army, or
    leaving their tax too low and coming back to escaped heroes, this should really
    help out the people who lost things.

    Thank you Evony.

    Whine who's whining? Those of us who have been loyal to Evony through much more than a piddly little shut down have a right to complain. We have never recieved so much as an aknowledgement of all the shutdowns or suprise game mechanic switches we have dealt with and labored through. Now when they are trying to run a positive publicity campaign they want to be all so sorry and here let us give you a gift. It's sorta like the bartender giving you a free drink after he beat you all night playing bar dice. You finally got a free drink but you already paid for a dozen rounds.

    And stop with the Epic Fail stuff. that was so over last year. It's no longer cool.

    Hey Zeb, what server are you?

    I was on server 25 and just before the downage I was within an inch of taking a lvl 10 town hall city from someone. Had to wait until the downage ended but I wound up getting it. What annoys the hell out of me is that I log back in to find that I'm missing 3600 cav and none of my heroes bear the lacking loyalty of having lost a battle. I have only 1 of 2 expected reports saying that the gates were opened and my cav were destroyed. Somehow the guy I wiped managed to open the gates just as the downage happened. So I lost a lot of forces and couldn't do anything about it.

    I want to thank Evony for the nice gesture. Most games I play online don't do a dang thing when they have a problem that effects players.

    And this is the very first time in the history of evony that they said sorry. I'm not trying to naysay the gesture I just think it will take more than free amulets and cents to get over the everything they have done to us in the last 4-5 months. Notice they didn't apologize for any previous game outages which were a lot longer than the 3 and a half hours this one was. I dont want additional gifts. I just want Evony to acknowledge the previous issues of those of us who have stuck with evony. An apology goes a lot farther than a bunch of amulets when trying to restore faith. And apologizing for ONLY the latest mis-step doesn't restore a whole lot of faith.
