Please stop performing planned maintenance in the middle of events. Also please start the maintenance at the planned time. Its already hard enough to schedule time to fit with the bizarre round limits imposed on events. You had a full day to do maintenance prior to the event. Why did you wait?? Are the fixes so critical you cannot wait till after the event? Personally I would prefer a delay to events than try to play around a maintenance schedule.
Absolutely, so so much, this. Incredibly poor timing and execution.
Get your acts together!
I agree, this was really unnecessary.
It is not the first time this happens either, and we complained loudly already
