Intermission

Every day, at midnight, Paradox time (03:30 MST/MDT (Mountain Standard Time / Mountain Daylight Time)), the game servers are taken offline to perform a number of maintenance tasks as follows:

• Create a full backup of the database
• Increase day counters
• Increase all players' turns by 50 (to a maximum of 250)
• Reset daily statistics (food/drink consumption, mining permit, device operations etc.)
• Select new items for leaderboards
• Delete old chat messages (more than 2 days old)

At present this takes only a few seconds, but any players who are logged on at the time will need to log on again once rollover is complete.
