EW Schedule for outages and upkeep (UP!)
« on: May 09, 2006, 04:08:22 pm »
Ecomic War will be out tonight, Tuesday 9 May, at about midnight.   I'll be needing to make some DB edits which I should already have worked out by then.   I'll be as quick as I can.  If all goes well then you should probably plan on a half hour break.  If it doesn't go well, I'll use this thread to keep you posted.

These outages will be a nightly thing as I adjust the map to reflect the ongoing game.   I'll use this thread to keep you posted of all future outages so as to avoid spamming the forum.   (I'm starting to feel a little guilty about that already!)

I waited a bit for some folks to get out of mission before taking it down.   The server went down at 12:15.   Start your timer from there.  ;)

Yes, I've been (The Dread Pirate) Roberts from the start.   I like the voices for Syndicate.    ;D



It's been half an hour.   Things are going well, it's just that certain overlords were a little more ambitious than I was expecting.  Keep watching this space.  Progress is being made.

Going to be much longer?

And does it have to be at THIS time everynight? can't you spread the love around a bit so the same folkes don't have to keep hitting refreash every night?

Then again I could always complete this donation form to the re-elect Ted Kennedy fund with your address on the mailing label, ensuring you get mail from them for years to come   :flame:

Well, it's back up!


(Finally)

That took a bit longer than I expected.  I've made note of the trouble spots in the process, and will hope to prepare things to move more quickly from now on.

Oh, and Bonk:  I am definitely going to rework my DB editor to work on ranges of hexs, rather than having to put in one hex at a time!  (However, I don't expect to ever have quite so many hexs to edit next time.)

Server down for editting and cleaning.  It went down at 12:03.

I have no trade routes I have to add tonight, so it shouldn't take as long as last night.

Burt-sama, after the server went down the Soryu was blown to smithereens by an asteroid base.  Am I assuming correctly that if the server comes back up and I still have it, I am to SD her?

Server down for DB editing.

Sorry if I caught any of you by surprise.  I logged on and tried to make an announcement, but I couldn't get my chat to work.

I'll have things back up as soon as I can.

Hey, guys, I made an error taking out an old trade route and putting in a new one.  It's going to be a little longer than expected before the server goes back up.  Should be up before 1 EST.

It's been overtaken by replies, and is about a dozen posts up in this thread.

For ease of finding, here it is again:  ftp://www.fourpower.com/pub/Phase2B.zip

It's also at the end of the EW Info thread.  The latest updates will ALWAYS be at the end of thta thread, and should stay easy to find since I keep that one locked.

The server is back up.  Took a long time this time, as I had a lot of trade routes to erase, replace, or revise.

You guys with the ghost accounts, check things out and let me know if you are OK now.

I believe I am now caught up on my treasure hunt replies.   However, I have not received answers from KATBEARD in some time.  So, if you sent me any clues, better send them again.

Remember:   The treasure hunt is an individual effort!  I've got a prize for each original cartel, but only one person (the first to solve the whole puzzle) can claim each.

Deadparrot said he was waiting , KATbeard is fine  ;)

Ah, no worries then.  Deadparrot's last answer had come in with a bunch of spam yesterday (somehow, for a BeastRaider, that's fitting.....) and I had missed it.   I replied tonight, however.

Down for editing on Sunday night.

Still haven't heard from all four Overlords, so for now it is still going to go down all Monday starting at 8AM.

I'm having a bit of trouble here.   Someone pointed out a hex doing weird things, and when I try to edit it I corrupt the database.

I'm working the issue.

I haven't been able to fix the busted hex.   It's still busted.   However, if I leave it alone, the server runs.

I'll have another go tomorrow when I have more time.  Maybe I can just edit out the hex and insert an old copy of it before it became busted.

I started another thread with this announcement, but then figured I better put it here today.

I did eventually hear from all four overlords last night.  The server will remain up today.

Aaaaarrrrrr!

You mean where?  The server is down today (Tuesday) for the combining of the cartels from the four semi-finalists to the two finalists.   It will be back up at 8AM on Wednesday.

C-racks on cruisers and many online piloting kittens
Captive Fed prisioners their fingers all bitten
Buxom young yeomen dressed in G-strings
These are a few of my favorite things

Fun roleplay threads and K Rolling's colorful doodles
Good strategy and tactics and my team using their noodles
Fun pilots that fly placing T-bombs on their wings
These are a few of my favorite things

Hondos nurses in white minis with blue satin sashes
Massaging me gently and coyly battling their lashes
Sexy purring on teamspeak that melts my heart strings
These are a few of my favorite things

When the games crashes
When the servers down
When Bethke's had strikes
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad

It was another machine crash, this time complete with a blue screen.  The server is now up again.

Darned if I could find anything wrong with it.  I did clean the database, which I didn't do last night.

*Remember not to attack hex 24,17.
*Remember not to remove any of the embassy hexes that belong to defunct cartels.

*If you are attacking any hex with a base in it, check to be sure that the empire and cartel ownership shows up properly.   If it doesn't, stay out of the hex and let me know which hex it was.

So, I'm going to sit here and watch, and let's see what happens.  Let's hope today's problems were just random failures.
