各位午安，因為期中考周的緣故，許久未在楓版發文
感覺楓版的人氣也跟最近的氣溫一樣直直落惹...QQ
================================================================
好的，總之今天也是為各位帶來國外的消息（雖然本人已完全放生國外帳號w）
相信有些人看到標題就會覺得好像似曾相似...？
是的，歐洲和國際版楓之谷的合併案
繼6月的金流系統合併後，現在終於輪到了遊戲伺服器本身啦！
就在今天這個時刻，EMS正在進行維護，也就是將資料和美服同步
http://maplestory.nexon.net/news/18310
http://en.maplestory.nexoneu.com/Maple.aspx?Part=/News/
Notice&mode=view&uid=6545
（https://goo.gl/sJTX1K）
維護時間從0900～2330（歐洲中部時間CET=UTC+1，比台灣慢7小時），長達14個半小時
維護後，EMS的版本將直接與GMS打平，並且歐洲的伺服器合併成單一伺服器「Luna」
也就是說，以後GMS的玩家也可以在這個伺服器創角
（不過此伺服器依然會架設在N社歐洲機房，所以連線可能會有所延遲）
而相對的，EMS的既有玩家也能到廣大的GMS各大伺服器來探險囉！
另外，上面提到，由於合併後版本會全部同步
對既有的EMS玩家來說會直接從歐洲的v117大幅提升到GMS的v177
（歐服目前只開到凱內西斯左右、並包含了海外內容：幻獸師和GMS的馬斯特力亞劇情
對他們來說，等於是一次開放楓葉英雄、菇菇神社異聞錄和秘密佚事）
所以，也有許多的資料必須要捨棄，詳情請看下方的原文公告翻譯～
==============================================================================
Hello Maplers,
On November 10th, Nexon America will begin to service our European MapleStory
players in addition to our existing players around the world. This migration
brings a lot of benefits to all of our players and we want to make sure you
understand what is happening and why.
各位玩家好：11/10起，美國Nexon將會和歐洲楓之谷合併服務。
本次的合併將帶來許多好處，而我們想確保您知道將會發生甚麼，以及為何會這樣。
For current Global MapleStory players, you will now have the choice to create
new characters on the Europe world, Luna. These new worlds are located in our
European datacenter so depending on your location, you may find your
connection to these servers better or worse than the current North America
servers. You will also be able to interact with a new population of players
migrating from the European MapleStory service.
對於既有的國際版玩家，你將可以選擇在新的歐洲伺服器Luna中創角。
此伺服器位在歐洲的機房，所以根據您的位置，
你有可能會發現連線品質與北美伺服器相比會更好或更差。
您也能夠與來自歐洲的眾玩家們交流。
For our European players migrating over, there’s quite a few exciting
changes for you. We'll go in depth on some of the main changes and include
the complete list of changes below.
對於轉移到此的歐洲玩家而言，則有一些令人興奮的改變。
我們抓幾個重點，並將全部的內容條列如下。
Immediately following the migration, you will be prompted to download the
full v177 client that will provide you access to all the latest GMS content,
including Heroes of Maple, Mushroom Shrine Tales, and the recently released
Strange Stories content. With this migration, European players will now
experience all of the current and future events occurring in Global
MapleStory. Please make sure to accept both the service migration and the
MapleStory game migration in order to begin playing on November 10th. If you
miss your chance now or wait until after November 9th to migrate, you'll have
to wait for an upcoming maintenance in order to access the MapleStory world
in Europe.
在合併完成後，您將會需要下載國際版專用的v177主程式，
內容包含了楓葉英雄、菇菇神社異聞錄，以及最近剛開放的秘密佚事。
這次的合併將能讓歐服的玩家完整體會到國際版的最新內容及活動。
請確定您已經接受了合併條款，以便能在11/10合併完成後馬上遊玩。
如果你忘記了，那你必須等到下次維護才能繼續遊玩合併後的內容。
Next, the existing Demethos and Kradia worlds in Europe MapleStory will merge
into one world, Luna. Previously, we planned to migrate the two worlds over,
so we asked our European players from each server to vote for their new world
names. But after further discussion internally, we decided to combine the two
worlds to provide our Europe MapleStory players with a larger population to
play with immediately following the migration. Out of all the votes between
the two servers, the name Luna received the most.
目前的兩個伺服器Demethos和Kradia將會合併成為一個伺服器Luna。
先前我們計畫同時移動兩部伺服器，所以我們向歐洲玩家們詢問了新伺服器的名字。
不過經過進一步的內部討論，我們決定合併兩部伺服器，讓更多人能在合併後一起遊玩。
而在所有的投票中，Luna這個名字最後出線。
Other additional changes as a result of the world merge and service migration
include:
在合併及轉移伺服器之後，其他的變革包含了：
●The amount of character slots you will have in Luna will be the higher value
of either character slots or characters created in either Kradia or Demethos.
您在Luna的角色欄位數量將會是您在原本兩個伺服器中的最高者
○If the total number of characters in both worlds exceed the maximum amount
(40), all of your characters will transfer to Luna. If you delete characters
that are over the maximum amount, no character slots will be freed until you
delete characters below the maximum amount.
如果您在兩個伺服器的角色加起來超過40隻，角色依然會被轉移
不過直到您刪除既有的角色前，都將不會有可以創新角色的空格
●The amount of Storage slots you will have in Luna will be the higher value of
either the number of items in the Storage or the number of Storage slots in
either Kradia or Demethos.
您在Luna的倉庫欄位數量將會是原本兩個伺服器中的最高者
●Character Card settings will be maintained if you've only set it up in 1 of
the worlds. If you have set up character cards in both worlds, your settings
will be reset.
如果您只有在其中一個伺服器設定了角色卡組合，則此組合將會原封不動轉移
如果您在兩個伺服器都設定了，那麼所有的組合都會被重設
●Quests that shared between both worlds, will keep the data of the furthest
progression.
跨伺服器的任務資料將會原封不動轉移
●Burning character settings will be reset.
燃燒角色設定將會被重設
●Cash Shop settings such as Cart Inventory will be reset.
購物商場的設定（例如購物車）將會被重設
●Cash Shop items that are tradeable as a result of using Avatar Scissors of
Karma on it, will be reset to untradeable.
購物商場中，曾經使用過神奇剪刀的物品會被還原成不可交易的狀態
●Your community data such as Friends list, Blacklist, Guilds, and wedding
information will be reset.
您的社群資料（例如好友清單、黑名單、公會及結婚資訊）將會被重設
●Your Monster Life progression will be reset.
您的怪物農場資訊將會被重設
●Macro settings will be reset.
技能組合會被重設
●Any rewards you still haven't accepted from the Reward System notifier on the
left of the screen, will be lost.
任何您尚未從螢幕左方的禮物盒領出的物品將會遺失
●Following the merge, support for restoration of characters will be extremely
limited.
由於合併的緣故，還原被刪除的角色的服務將會極度的受限
●All Cash Item gifts will be adjusted so that the sender's name is "Gift"
所有點商送禮的送禮者將會被設定成Gift
●In-game rankings such as Mu Lung Dojo, Donation King, and Tower of Oz will be
reset.
遊戲內排名（例如：武陵道場、捐獻王及海底之塔）將會被重設
●Friendship and wedding rings will be deleted.
好友及結婚戒指將會被刪除
Although there is data that unfortunately will be reset as a result of the
migration, we plan to compensate players for the loss and reward our loyal
players for sticking with us as we complete this migration process. Details
for these rewards will be revealed soon.
即使有些資料很不幸地必須因應轉移作業而重設，
我們已經計畫好，在轉移作業完成後提供各位玩家補償，詳細資訊將會另行公告。
In addition to the worlds merging, you will also be able to create brand new
characters on our North America servers. Although this will technically be
available, we strongly urge everyone to choose the server closest to their
location to get the best gameplay experience. You will also be able to
interact with a wider community on our newly relaunched forums as well as on
our social sites like Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Twitch.
除了轉移之外，您也將能夠在北美服內創角。
即使這樣的做法可行，我們依然強烈建議您選擇離您最近的伺服器以保障遊戲體驗。
您將能夠在全新開放的論壇及社群網路（如FB、推特、Twitch、IG等）內與玩家互動。
This migration has been in discussion and planning for a long time and many
teams around the world have worked tirelessly to ensure the process is as
smooth as possible. Having said that, we know there may be some unforeseen
issues that arise as a result of these changes. A large project like this
will always have a few kinks even after launch. But we are committed to
making sure your experience is as smooth as possible, so we will work hard to
resolve issues as fast as we can.
本次的轉移已經過多個團隊長時間的討論及策劃，確保作業能順暢完成。
然而，我們必須坦承，我們也知道可能有許多未知的問題會隨之產生。
像這樣的大型專案即使在啟動之後，總會有遺漏的眉角。
但我們已經向各位提出保證，所以我們會以最快的速度盡可能地解決問題。
We are all extremely excited to see the launch of the new combined service
and we hope you all enjoy the new Global MapleStory service.
我們很開心能見到兩個服務的合併，希望你們會喜歡全新的國際版楓之谷。
Thank you,
謝謝。
