Hello Commander,
We plan to do a server maintenance later today in preparation for CE3, between the following times:
2020-03-25T20:00:00Z → 2020-03-25T20:30:00Z
We do not expect delays but they might occur. Ticks will keep running until the server is down. Ticks will not start running until 10 minutes after the game is back up.
The tick engine and server should feel slightly smoother after this change.
Could you hurry it up already? Ticks are ticking 
Ticks are paused and will be until completion.
Apologies, maintenance has run into a snag. I expect the server to start recovering within the next hour.
Its been two hours…
Ticks will start in about 30 minutes!
Okay, ticks are going. I set timers depending on the world - Havoc starts this hour, BD starts in about 7 hours, Galaxy starts in about 3 hours.
This should give everyone plenty of time to nap a bit, call if needed, and so on.
