We have entire database backups for the situation where something goes wrong, we never use the public dumps as a contingency as they simply don't contain enough information for us to reconstruct the game from after a problem.

So it's simply about stopping the dump which is easier than restricting access to it for the time being. Lets hear everyone's opinions. Do we stop the dumps for the entire first 36 ticks or just for a bit of it?

Personally I think I'd vote for one dump in tick 1 as this allows all the tool sites to get a fresh view of all the planets in the Universe at the start rather than displaying last rounds (or the speedgame) information.

What do you think?
