Starting tonight we are moving the daily backup from 1:30PM (EST) and will instead be starting it at 5:00AM(EST). We have done some statistical analysis and have decided that this is a better time to run this backup. The site will be unavailable for approximately 20 minutes while this daily backup runs.

johnlennonI know you've done statistical analysis and everything, but I just wanted to say that having these backups at this time is incredible inconvenient. This happens at 3am my time, which is a time I'm frequently on IJ trying to do stuff. Same with most of my friends. I know it's only a 20 minutes inconvenience, but I thought I'd throw in my two cents.- briankinneyIt's going to be inconvenient for someone, no matter the time. According to Squeaky's statistics, this is a much less active time than previous backup times. That may not be true for you or your friends, but he has to operate on the basis of the userbase as a whole. Personally, I'm up at 3am more often than I am at 10am too, but most people aren't.
