Nice app. I was wondering, however if the date/time shown on the top alert was posted by Dr. Who or of that is supposed to be projected date/time of service being restored. Because it shows a time which is at least six hours in the future for this region and the sub alerts seem to reflect a more likely time of posting. Bear in mind that i do Not get my Xbox live service from the opposite side of the world. I'm only 1 time zone away from Microsoft in Washington state.

Durham University PhD student Matthew Hedges and his wife Daniela Tejada.
A British academic has been sentenced to life in prison for spying in the United Arab Emirates, according to a family spokeswoman.
Matthew Hedges, 31, and a specialist in Middle Eastern studies at Durham University in England, was arrested on May 5 by UAE officials when he was leaving Dubai airport after a research trip. He had previously been held in solitary confinement for almost six months on spying allegations, but was released on bail last month.
Nikita Bernardi, a spokeswoman for the Hedges family, said that Hedges had been sentenced to "life in prison following a five-minute hearing in which he had no legal representation."

Tropical Storm Pabuk is expected to make landfall about 7 p.m. local time Friday (5 a.m. ET) near the Chumphon archipelago, on the eastern border of Thailand's Surat Thani and Nakhon Si Thammarat provinces, but heavy rain has already arrived.
Tourist hotspots in the Gulf of Thailand, including Koh Samui, Koh Phangan and Koh Tao islands, along with islands in the Andaman Sea such as Phuket and Koh Phi Phi -- made famous by the movie "The Beach" -- are expected to be affected by the storm.
"We are still compiling the number of evacuees. I can say several thousand people for over 16 provinces," government spokesman Putthipong Punnakanta told CNN by phone.
"It is high season, there are many foreign tourists at popular destinations. We have informed them in advance since two days ago. I would say most of them have left islands and come to the mainland."
Phuwieng Prakhammintara, director general of Thailand's Meteorological Department, told CNN the storm could cause waves as high as seven meters (22 feet), but that waves were more likely to reach 3 to 5 meters in height.
Schools in coastal areas are to be closed and Thailand's armed forces are on standby for Pabuk's arrival.
Thai men move a fishing boat to a safer location in Songkhla, southern Thailand, in preparation for storm weather conditions on Thursday.
Bangkok Airways announced the cancellation of all flights to and from Koh Samui on Friday "for safety reasons." Affected passengers will be able to rebook their flights without paying fees or charges, the airline said.
After crossing the Chumphon Archipelago the storm will, if the current track holds, make a second landfall over Surat Thani province early Saturday.
The forest is being cut down to make way for activities like cattle ranching, soy bean farming, mining, hydropower dams and new highways.
Deforestation fell dramatically between 2004 and 2012, but in recent years it has been increasing, and the powerful agricultural lobby in the Brazilian congress is pushing for more development of the forest. It endorsed Bolsonaro during his election campaign.
A fire burns trees next to grazing land in the Amazon basin on November 22, in Ze Doca, Brazil, 2014. Fires are often set to clear forest for grazing land.
Brazil's Ministry of Agriculture is heavily influenced by the agricultural lobby. Soon after taking office this week, Bolsonaro signed an executive order giving the ministry responsibility for certifying indigenous lands as protected territories.
About 13% of Brazil is legally designated as indigenous land, mostly in the Amazon. That land is reserved for the country's 900,000 indigenous people (less than 0.5% of the population). Indigenous groups said the president's order would lead to "an increase in deforestation and violence against indigenous people."
Franck Ribery warms up during the Bayern Munich training camp in Doha.
"He used words that we, FC Bayern, cannot accept and that Franck does not have the right to use, as a role-model and player of FC Bayern."
The statement added Ribery was invited to try the steak as part of an advertising campaign while on holiday in Dubai.
It denied reports he paid 1200 euros for the steak, but added that Ribery and his family were "savagely attacked" on social media before he "publicly "stood up for his family and fought back."
However, talking at the club's training camp in Doha, Salihamidzic said the response was inappropriate.
