Is CB down?? (in General)


QBOddBird June 30 2007 12:03 PM EDT

I can't go to my 'Home' page!

<Jonathan> Starting the upgrade described in News, it's probably going to be buggy for a while

QBOddBird June 30 2007 12:04 PM EDT

or fight!

bartjan June 30 2007 12:04 PM EDT

Read the news

Cylo June 30 2007 12:04 PM EDT

it will be ok in about 2 hours OB

QBOddBird June 30 2007 12:06 PM EDT

Ah. See, I'm not in Chat, so I didn't know. Nor did I get that News bit. =P Thanks for letting me know, th00p! Darnit. C'mon, fightpage, lemme in! My EXPtime BA is calling me!

QBOddBird June 30 2007 12:06 PM EDT

Yay tournies! =D

I wouldn't advise fighting until Jonathan gives the all clear either.
Depending on what he is doing, a rollback or two could happen while he is fiddling with the server.

If you train, things *should* get saved to disk and survive most mini-rollbacks.

To allow everyone fair access to the limited cpu resources, each user may only be in one fight at a time.

If you clicked on fight before your last one finished, you will get this error. Remember, 'your last one' could have been a challenge page, so moving to another activity is NOT safe at this point.

This is open to abuse since it's so easy to create new user accounts. Creating multiple user accounts is illegal, but rather than make that process more onerous for legitimate new users (such as by email verification, which in any case is trivial to spoof), we've chosen as the most foolproof method to additionally limit fighting on an IP address basis for non-Supporters. This means that if you're behind a firewall that makes multiple computers appear to share the same IP, your fights will conflict with others from behind your firewall.


^ Doesn't look like I can fight at the moment anyways. =)

Just thought I'd add a little piece of highly intellectual and very insightful posting.

TOURNIES YAY!

Vicious Cat June 30 2007 12:45 PM EDT

So, for those of us not in chat - how do we get to know?

QBOddBird June 30 2007 12:47 PM EDT

I guess via the 'News' on the sidebar.

AdminJonathan June 30 2007 12:53 PM EDT

<Jonathan> OK, I think the worst is over

May still be problems with more obscure corners of the game, but fighting and forging work.

Vicious Cat June 30 2007 1:42 PM EDT

yay thanks Jonathan :-)
now - wheres the tourney sign-up? ;-)

Actually I don't know if I am delusional or something, but I noticed my clan point had been stagnant since 8pm server time, even though I have just finished like 400++ BA , and most of it happened within Saturday :) So it couldn't be the Sunday CP freeze, I don't know if anyone sensed this?
