Basically it's the same time period they give for a new install, 2 to 4 weeks. And no, of course it doesn't take probably ten minutes to actually do the work. All they have to do is plug in some wires and throw some switches I am sure. The 2 to 4 weeks is the time it takes to process all the orders that came in before mine. It's a queue is all.

1) Collect .plr files.
2) Put them in the appropirate Savegame folder.
3) Load up game in SE4, and select host.
4) Hit process turn.
5) Zip up the turn, combat and log files for the game that get generated.
6) Email that zip to the players.
7) Collect .plr files.

(newbie) Galactic Combat 3 (NGC3) will go over to the emergency site when the PBW server goes down, deadlines will continue as usual, so don't miss your turns.

When the PBW server comes on-line again turns will be switched back.

Confirmed. PBW is down. Let the screaming, cursing, and withdrawl symptoms begin.
