Cheers for the heads up, always appreciate when the admins give us some notice rather than just pulling the plug with no warning. Midnight EST works out to about 5am here in the UK so I doubt I'll even notice it, probably fast asleep by then unless something drags me back to the forum (which honestly happens more than I'd like to admit).
Just a thought - might be worth pinning this post or putting a little banner on the site itself as you get closer to Saturday, because not everyone checks the announcements section regularly. I know I nearly missed this one. Anyone else from the UK or Europe who tends to browse in the early mornings just be aware you might hit a wall if you're up at that time. Hopefully the maintenance sorts out some of the slower load times I've been noticing lately, pages have been taking a bit longer than usual to come up for me.
