So far I've been updating since 3:30pm EST and I haven't even downloaded 400 files. My brother's is almost as bad. Does anyone else have to suffer this? It happens every update, I've got like 12 hours left of this ><

I am never able to update two computers from the same house (I use to update my Labtop and my Desktop using my alt and Main, I've since given up and just update the one because every time one of them will simply stop while the other contines)

Maybe since the whole world is now getting back from work and trying to download at once?
If you were on earlier (when the button first appeared) we downloaded in about an hour. :P

:X I wish, school was in the way.

If it keeps failing I think I'll try digging up some wires and seeing if I can update wired.

Ya, like Haseyo I got mine as soon as the button popped up so only took an hour. Updating now is going to take a while since everyone and their sister is on there trying to update...

Update when windowed mode was released took me 14 hours, since I was at work at the time and couldn't get home til prime DL time. Add in a couple D/C's and I was RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGEEEEEEing.

If traffic is high, and you do get connected, it can take a long time to upload. It has for me sometimes, other times, i guess traffic isnt so high, my loads go pretty quick.

I started mine bout 15 minutes ago and it only says 1 hour 11 min remaining. I hope that's not a lie, SE would do stuff like that too.

I had to wait to download mine untill hubby was done on pc downloading his, think it took him longer then one hour.

So it had crashed after I fell asleep with 900 files.

Took me 12 minutes this morning, tops. -.-;

Although I woke up to find that now my laptop's left mouse click is broken. SE is evil, I say!

I started my download 1 hour 10 minutes into the maintenance (17:00 GMT) and it took me about 40 minutes. It's all about timing folks, got to beat the mad rush!
