4/19/2017 - Resolving Server Issues

Hey all,

 

As many of you have already noticed, we missed a few turns (the last 4, specifically.) I looked into the issue as soon as I got online this morning and was able to resolve it.

 

This issue affected everyone - no one received MAPs or turn revenue for the last 4 turns. Additionally, war length was not shortened during these turns either. I will not be compensating for the missed turns or income because it affected everyone in this way, and it is fairer to just let things continue as normal, with everyone on relatively even footing.

 

This issue was caused when ss23 was upgrading the server earlier today, and he forgot to update a value relating to the database, causing an error in the turn scripts. While this is an annoyance to you all as players, and frustrating, we have upgraded the servers considerably and you should see reduced page load times and these issues should not persist into the future.

 

I apologize for the inconveniences caused.

 

On an unrelated note, with the upgrade to the servers I will likely be tinkering with Credits prices and things for the next month. I'm looking to get some player feedback to aid in the process, so if you fill out this form, you'll be entered in a drawing to win 1 Credit (20 will be given away total, so reasonably good odds.)

Thanks.

I disagree on this part. It would be fair if everyone gets their MAPs. For exaple some people will now have to  fight others ofter update and therefore fight more troops then they would have if there is no bug. Definetly not affected everyone same.

Alex. Learn to make a survey that works. What you have given to us doesn't assess how players feel about the credit value or cost in anyway other than "which of the following is the least bad out of all of these terrible options".

 

I know it's just a freaking survey and I shouldn't get too tilt over it, but this is what you use heavily to assess what to do with the current credit outcome, and I don't want to see you botch the credit system again because of a terrible survey design.

 

Include comments next time.

Not compensating will result in people missing turns due to sleep timing and the update timings to be different, which could result in the tide of war turning. Plz compensate <3

I don't want comments - I get comments all the time.

 

I want data on how much demand we would have for Credits at varying price levels.

From a PR perspective, you should have waited a week for this survey.

This is literally the only reason that tI is losing not winning as much as they should be right now. 

I guess we all know whose side Sheepy is on.  :v

You people need to make up your mind with this blame game thing.
