Please be aware that there is additional maintenance for select realms. These realms are listed in the following post:

Thank you for your patience.


Remember, these are always estimates and realms may return a bit earlier - or later, than currently anticipated.

This is always an excellent time to do those chores on your own system to make sure your play is enjoyable and uninterrupted in the week to come. Scan, update, etc.

Tuesday recommended reading list.



Also, here is a handy time conversation table for timezones.

As all maintenance schedules are provided in PDT, should you not live on the pacific coast, you will need to adjust this time accordingly. :)

Here's a quick table to reference:
    HST = PDT - 3 hours
    MDT = PDT + 1 hour
    CDT = PDT + 2 hours
    EDT = PDT + 3 hours
    ADT = PDT + 4 hours
    Newfoundland = PDT + 4.5 hours
    GMT = PDT + 7 hours
    AEST = PDT + 17 hours

Q u o t e:
Any chance you can tell some of the PR guys at starcraft to post something? Forums are in an uproar over ther about sc2, and most of us cant post there because we cant access our characters to log in.
They gave no notice of downtime.
Thanks and excuse the intrusion


Thank you, Nejaa.

This is part of normal maintenance, but yes - we'll look into having a message posted.

Q u o t e:
Wait, so starcraft 2 has to go down with WoW every week? ( ゚д゚)


Only if authentication is in maintenance. That doesn't always happen.

Just a quick note folks, our wonderful Billing Representatives will be available during our normal hours today - but what they may be able to assist with while realms are unavailable (and therefore some of our tools) may be limited.

Just a heads-up.
