Hi.. I was playing last night, just before the maintnance was about to begin on the servers..
I did not see that it was going to close it down for 6 hours.. So i startet up the game. Went into battle.
I was playing as Type E (arty), and i managed to stay alive the hole battle.. together with another enemy arty!
I began to cap their base , while he was capping our base.. but i came first, so we did win with 100% base capture, while the enemy only got 99% base capture..
When the battle ended i was looking at the stats, and i got a INVADER medal.. and should have got a RAIDER medal to.. But the screen just went black.. and i needed to close the game down hard..
It was down until 05.00 (27.03.2012)
So when i woke up this morning to see my medals.. I GOT NOTHING AT ALL!!
WTF??? ggrgrrrrrr:Smile-izmena: "¤&¤%"/
i got a replay from the battle.. but no medals!!

I've always thought they should do a "soft" shutting down of the servers before maintainence.
Just throw out a message about 20 minutes before server goes down and set a flag that prevents new games to start. That would let the running games run to the end and let players log out safely before shutting down the server.
They do like this in other games. Why not WoT?

or instead they could stop letting games start lets say 5 or 10 minutes before the maintenance, telling people this will be the last possible game before the maintenance. e.g. when i play online poker, the server also does not fold your hand and says: too bad, breaks up now. no, they let people finish what they are doing at that moment and then start the break. it could also work like that in WOT.
btw, i also had a really nice game going which was just a few seconds before the end and then... blank screen, forced quit... and surprise: scheduled maintenance?! it felt like they announced it 1 hour earlier. i look like every day on the main page but i didnt see anything about game server not going to work during my sunday prime time!
so be nice WOT, let people finish their battles.

Stand in line friend 
.I have lost 3 epic battles like that. About 100 000 creds and 9000 xp lost because Wargaming Net cant add a simple soft shutdown notification 15 minutes before the server shutdown to tell us to "Stop playing, all progression will be lost"
Sorry Im out of +1's for today

This is clearly not fair for anyone involved. I have seen a fair few threads about this issue too.
As already mentioned they should implement an early warning system. If CCP (Eve Online) can do it then I am sure WoT can do it too.... It would save a lot of frustration and anger WG.

This is really really easy.
WoT fix the final game beginning time as the start of the maintenance window -16 mins. That way you guarantee that all games will be finished and closed before the beginning of the maintenance window.
Guess it shows the naivety of their customer relationship group that they've not as yet done this.
