[UPDATED: We're OPEN!] There is a problem with the game. So, we will fix it.

But, that means you can't come in for a bit.

We're ALREADY fixing it!

Update (at 10:53pm, pacific): But, seriously, it was more complicated than we thought. And, we're taking extra to make sure that we lose nothing. Still working!

Update (20-something minutes later): I'm still bored of this problem. It's boring.

Update (another hour later): Prffpt. So, sometimes you make a joke and then reality is all like "oh, you're a joker, huh?" and then it messes with you. Well, nice job me. Nice job. I Shouldn't've joked because now everyone has to stay up late and be all worried. I hope I learned a lesson.

Update (another 30 mins later): we've decided to keep the game closed until the morning so we can evaluate the results of all the fixes with fresh heads.

We are sorry to deprive you of the game in the meantime, but fresh heads are the best way to go when your Glitches' very existence is at stake … and our heads are currently un-fresh with fatigue.

  • There's five more hours of morning on the west coast.   What is this "shoulda opened an hour ago" of which you speak?  Nowhere [that I can find] did anyone say 6AM would be re-opening!

  • Have any of the impatient ones factored into the equation that when falling into bed in the wee hours of the morning, people don't typically pop up ready to exercise their best brains at 6am?

    Give the good people a chance to rest and be fresh for later this morning. Go smell the roses.

  • Indeed. There are 5 hours remaining in the west coast "morning" ...

  • Does the game ever re-open at six am? I for one certainly dont expect the devs to get up that early jus to open the game.

    Maybe they should implement a night shift? LOL

  • Everybody's memory seems to have taken a vacation.  Or am I the only one who remembers when Glitch would only be opened for a couple of days and then closed for up to a week or more at times?  There was a lot less to Glitch back then and a lot less people so with all the new updates, clothes, homes, furniture, locations etc., should anyone be surprised about this or any closure.  I hope they find the problem soon and can fix it without another major overhaul, good luck Tiny Speck.

  • ok, well. Might as well learn a little bit about the game then.

    Anyone know who actually created Glitch? I know it says its by TS, but Im wondering who the actual genius was behind the whole idea?

  • @Julie

    I was not playing the game yet at the time of which you speak. So, no, I dont remember :(

  • What exactly was broken last night? Connection issues?

    or are they finally addressing the massive memory leaks in the game?

  • oohh so stoot created it. Thats very interesting.  I also wasnt aware that stoot co founded flikr either. I love flikr.

    And thanks for the link.

    wait , still confused....it says with HIS company Tiny Speck. Does that mean stoot owns tiny speck?

  • You are very welcome.I thought that was interesting to.
    Posted 7 months ago by Gylnne Subscriber! | Permalink
  • i thought tiny speck owned stoot ...
    Posted 7 months ago by crème Subscriber! | Permalink
  • never mind, I googled it and answered my question myself. He does own tiny speck....along with three other people.
    Posted 7 months ago by Serenity's Mommy Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I presume he does, but probably has many investors by now.

  • I'm BORED. Hurry up, it's time. 

    Darn. I hope they have Butlers/Craftybots/Bacon/BACON/BACON/BACON/BACON

    I will now be watching Stoot do stuffz.

  • creative mornings with stoot ^ ^
    Posted 7 months ago by Rudi Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Also, apparently tiny speck is still a small company. So that puts the whole "the game is closed, we have to go to bed, we will fix it in the morning" thing going on right now in a whole new light.

    They work really hard for us to be able to enjoy the game.

    Thanks, Stoot.

  • OH NO!!!!! This is sooooo unfair.
    I have done my study and not even looked at Glitch for one teeny tiny second before I have read my books and stuff and now there is NO Glitch. And now I have to go to work and it will be late when I get back and I will have to do more study and then I wont be able to play and .............

    Pretty please, rest devs and then GET IT FIXED!  Thank you! xx

    "argh, my phone wont work"
    "will you give it a second? Its going to space, give it a second to let it come back from space"

  • Right now I'm currently crossing my fingers that this is related to the memory leaking going on glitch in the past few weeks... and being fixed promptly

  • Oh noes! The Rooks have caused the Giant's imaginations to go all afoul! D: But you guys have this thing on lock. :)

    Good luck, devs! You all deserve a delicious pile of pancakes after this. You all work so hard to make sure we have fun, and we want you to know that we truly appreciate you. :)  Cheers to the best ever game devs!

  • I wish I could make coffee for TS and serve them muffins. XD
    Posted 7 months ago by Impspindle Subscriber! | Permalink
  • I would send them muffins, but that would probably cost alot as I live in OKC, plus theyd probably be stale by the time they got them...so stoot, and devs, just know I am wishing I could send you muffins rofl (they say its the thought that counts, right? lol)

  • I remember those days, Julie.  Completely random closings and openings.  We've all gotten kinda spoiled since the old Beta days, but at least we have an idea when it will be open now!

    I miss hearing the GNG song randomly playing as the only warning to get back to work. :P

  • Most entertaining "closed for maintenance" forum thread ever. Anywhere. Especially the staff comments :) I hope the "tried that thing, didn't work, trying something else" thing is finally working out. My butterfly milkers are so full I think they're going to be sore at me. Ouch. Meantime, tum-te-tum-te-tum, you mean I actually have to work right now rather than goof off? Damn.
