Posted November 11, 2013 Yeah I've thought of plenty of ideas for the Fort I'm working on making for Sass on the hillside next to Rad harbor lol. Some nice ideas for sure. But first gotta get back in there and finish up the mining oporation lol after feeding those poor starving animals of ours o.o Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 11, 2013 Luckily The server time stopped after the first day of downtime so your animals should be fineand usually what i need done is easily done, when there are more than just one person working on them...... oh well i play solo gotta do everything on my own Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 11, 2013 Has the Test server been turned off now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 11, 2013 Also that many people on server its lagging.If you notice, the same exact thing that was happening to us on the main servers is happening on test. Smells like a DDoS, feels like a DDoS... we have ourselves a disgruntled (ex)player. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 11, 2013 So, just wondering if the servers were stopped then since no one can get on to tend to their fields and animals, or will there just be a roll back? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Said numerous times that they're stopped, frozen, but the first day they were down still went by (IIRC.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted November 11, 2013 Well guys.. time for a little Wurm Offline.. Ima go smash my neighbors house down. I've already destroyed 4 surrounding my house, I've informed my neighbors that I intend to replace their houses with fields of wemp and potato. I've processed all the neighborhood pets, and i've been working on some HFC. Pretty soon I intend to expand my house both outwards and upwards, I was thinking 11 stories. I got in a dispute with a neighbor over a guard tower, I've drained their token and catapulted the majority of their house. Whoever is behind this is going to have a mess to clean up, i'm going nuts! My neighbors will only mix so much mortar by hand, even though i've graciously given them a place to stay. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's still not as crazy as the other guy who ran outside naked after "dieing to a troll (bearded fat man)" screaming for Fo to smite thy demon amongst the street. Then turned around after stand in the street for a minute "praying to his altar (Toilet paper stand) and meditating on his meditation rug for another 2 minutes (bathroom rug) claiming that that spot was perfect for the path of insanity because it was a special place on concrete. Oh my, I think this downtime is seriously effecting people now haha should see youtube xP flooded with people in similar ideas as that one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should take quarters and in sharpy write "1s" on them and give that to your neighbors as payment for helping. Tell them after they get 10s, they can ride horses and drive large carts! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But I could be totally wrong too, lol Edited November 11, 2013 by Kegan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted November 11, 2013 Rolf, you've handled this as best as anyone can in your situation. That being said, I'd like you to review your options after this situation smoothes over. There is always room for improvement, especially when a weakness is made apparent. To quote some people commenting, Rolf... I also very much appreciate the recent change in development/status transparency. It means a lot to all of us who are a part of your community. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is always room for improvement, especially when a weakness is made apparent. (quote from Makarus the quote thingy didn't work properly!) I don't think he has been sat on his hands twiddling his thumbs all weekend and I'm sure lots of options and ideas are already in his head, down on paper or even in the process. Who knows. But Rolf, you are amazing, you have persisted to get the game up and running at a very dire time, sat through the anger and hate of players directed at you and still gone above and beyond to get the game up and running. Hats off to you just isn't enough. Of all the games i have played in my 27+ years of gaming you have been one of the most informative Devs i have come across.

Posted November 11, 2013 aw man, 3rd day running now T_T havent been able to play literally all weekend... Methinks a change of ISP is in order, perhaps to a company somewhat more professional, with a better response time to problems such as this... it cant be that hard, dont think ive ever experienced downtime for such a prolonged period on any other mmo before bcus of a DDOS/flood before, surely the isp has multiple redundancy's in place to take care of these things?
