Animal Jam Mysteries - Desolation

    The day was thriving, as every Jammer was playing delightfully on their assigned accounts. Jamaa Township was full, as always. I checked my server - Balkan. As I traveled through each land, trading, I attempted to return to the Township. Big mistake... it was empty. Completely abandoned. I checked my server once again. Still Balkan? Odd...

    In fact, most servers were either completely empty or lightly-populated. This occurred around 1:30 PM on May 27th, 2014.

      A bit afterwards, I decided to go incognito (aka, in disguise) and stalk the area. That is, until I finally spotted some players. I interviewed some of them, but received no luck. Nobody knew what had happened.

     

     For a split-second, I went off guard and made my way into the Penguins-Only Party. Not completely bare, but still lacking a large crowd, as well. 

      Unfortunately, I did not retrieve the server I was currently in for the party. After a while of pondering over the day's mystery, I returned to Balkan. Oh my...

      Full once again? Are you kidding me?! Or at least, that's what I thought to myself. Although I still have no exact answer towards the oddity, I do have a theory. Animal Jam itself couldn't have been hacked, or else their would be more obvious proof. The website, I believe, was likely being either updated, lagged, or glitched. Have any more possible theories?
