Maintenance falls in the line of both. They could be doing the maint. to the server to prepare it for the comming update. So when it's time for an update, it just takes a keystroke. If you download a trial version of a game, it takes a few mins., but when you decide to get the full version after trying it, it takes mere seconds. Your computer had maint. done on it to prepare it for the full version, so when you updated for the full it was done in the blink of an eye. At the same time it could just be maint. for say the "Null Attacked You" glitch, that has been plaquing my extra account for weeks now.
Meaning YOU BOTH ARE CORRECT, no need to be a wise as.
