There's a page on g.o somewhere that explains this. I read it a long |
| 49 |
time ago, not sure how much has changed. I think it updates like every |
| 50 |
30 minutes or something but I seem to recall that some servers can |
| 51 |
adjust that to hours or even just once a day if they need to. It's been |
| 52 |
a while but I bet it is still over there somewhere. Got curious so I |
| 53 |
went and found it. |
