We’re having some technical difficulties and trying to resolve them quickly. Weewar will be back up in a bit.
[Update 3:25pm PST - And we're back. Terribly sorry about that.]
We have weekly scheduled downtime today at 5pm PST to roll out some updates to our internal tracking system. Please be patient, we’ll be back shortly.
[5:02pm: We're back.]
Weewar will go down briefly today at 5pm PST (UTC-7) to address a bug with kicking players.
Have you noticed any major lag on Weewar recently? Our last update on Tuesday should have fixed it, but if you still experience any slowdowns, please let us know!
[Update 6/24/10 5:14pm - We're back!]
[Update 6/25/10 - Yesterday's update introduced a bug in player's signing in after registering. This is pretty crucial so we're releasing a fix for it today at 5:30pm PST. We'll only be down very briefly.]
[Update 6/25/10 5:40pm - A bit longer than expected, but we're back now!]
Weewar will be down for a brief update at 5pm PST (UTC-7). Please bear with us. The update should reduce the lag so you are not sometimes sitting at your computer for a minute waiting for an attack to finish.
[Update 6/22/10, 5:38pm - We started a bit late, but we're back now! Thanks for your patience.]
[Update 6/22/10, 5:55pm - We broke something and will be back in 5 minutes.]

As we continue to make improvements to Weewar, we decided it would be best to have updates and server downtime at a regular date and time so that there is less confusion about when it will happen. Thus, starting tomorrow, every Tuesday at 5pm PST (UTC-7), unless otherwise stated, we’ll shut down the server for about half an hour to push out bug fixes and add some new features for you all. We’ll post an announcement at the top of the main Weewar pages to remind you beforehand of the downtime.
This Tuesday, we’ll be rolling out some internal improvements that will help us measure user activity so that we can see where the game needs improvement and how our future changes affect user numbers and activity levels on the site. There won’t really be any noticeable changes for you all.
We are also thinking of starting up the test server again and testing re-balanced unit specs there. Sound off on which units you think need the most rebalancing in this forum thread!
Let us know how we’re doing too! As always, your feedback is very much appreciated. :)
[Update 6/15/10, 5:35pm: we're having some technical difficulties and will be back as soon as we can]
[Update 6/15/10, 6:10pm: we're back! sorry about the delay]
We’re rolling out a quick bug fix to address problems with players challenging other players. We’ll be back in several minutes.
[Update 2:34pm, 6/10/2010: And we're back! Down for only three minutes.]
This summer, we are offering each of you a FREE 3-month subscription to Weewar Pro! The promotion will be launching this evening after the downtime, so be sure to come back to visit and redeem your FREE upgrade.
For those of you who already have a Pro account, no worries. We will automatically extend your Pro subscription by 3 months when the promotion launches.
Look for information on how to upgrade tonight after the downtime!
And for those of you who don’t know me, I’m Lillian and am joining the Weewar team for the summer. Feel free to invite me: lillian (creative, I know).
[Update: Click here to upgrade or check your subscription]
[Update: Currently, our system only allows you one free trial for your lifetime. This means that if you participated in any past free trial promotion, the system will block you from subscribing to a new one. We are working to fix this and will give another update as soon as possible. Thanks RD for the tip.]
[Update: Players who had a pro account before but don't have one now who could not sign up for our new free trial promotion should be able to do so now at the upgrade link above. Please let us know if you have any trouble.]
We will have more downtime tomorrow, June 9th, for about half an hour starting at 4pm PST. (See it in your time zone here).
More details about the update will come tomorrow.
[Update: We're back!]
We will be bringing the server down for about an hour tomorrow, June 4th, starting at 10:30am PST. (See it in your time zone here).
We’re removing old Zapp games with players who have not logged in for some time. Hopefully, this will help Zapp move again.
We will also be pushing out a fix for the game page not automatically updating at times.
[Update: We're back!]
