Server Maintenance [March 7, 2021]

[PF2K]

Age Of Empires Online Celeste Fan Project will undergo planned server maintenance on the 7th of March 2021 starting at 5:00 PM UTC (6:00 PM CET). The server will stop responding to login requests at 4:00 PM UTC (5:00 PM CET) meaning you will not be able to log on from this time. We expect the maintenance to last until 7:00 PM UTC (8:00 PM CET).

We also expect to have a few server hiccups and restarts after the maintenance.
