They are implementing an update, and 3 hours in the scheme of things is no biggie :p
Maybe they didn´t know about it before? Communtiy Managers get only the Information from other Teams. So if they get the Informations about these Update 30 Min ago they have to post it then. I don´t think this Maintance was unplaned. They just don´t know if they can do it today. Maybe there was some issues they don´t know they can fix in time. They only did a post about the Maintance if they have Green Lights from the Testing team/ Devolper. Sometimes there are unexpectet issues during Maintance which have to been fixed in time. Thats the reson why a Maintance should need more time than expectet.
So you see the CM had no Chance to communicate with us before this post. If they had post "This week no Maintance because issue xy" there would be a massiv shitstorm incomming.

You wanna tell me that a scheduled maintenance needs to be announced 30 mins before the actual patch since there could be problems during updating? Hm, I wonder why it's called a scheduled maintenance. I actually don't wanna rant about gameforge since it seems that they don't understand what publishing a game means anyways. This is not the first time the servers unexpectedly get down, this will not be the last. I'm just tired of it. Kinda sad, since the game has potential. Keep making excuses for them, this game is bound to die anyways.

Previosly they posted maintenance notices on forums and tweeted days before maintenance. My point is that it came 30 minutes before the whole maintenance, not day before.
