Re: game.planetarion.com
As there is no actual information available, the best thing to do would be to repeat the #planetarion topic here
[03:09:15] * Topic is 'Welcome to #planetarion :: game currently seems to be UNAVAILABLE :: no ETA on return yet :: it may or may not still be ticking (all depends on what's gone wrong) :: Information will be posted HERE, the portal and the forums as soon as there is some'
[03:09:15] * Set by A2 on Tue Dec 13 02:38:14
There are (in my mind at least) 2 possible sets of cause & effects::
- Server down
Cause: server crashed, hardware problem, drive full, whatever it is, something thats caused it to stop working
Effect: game inaccessible, ticks stopped
- Routing/DNS issues
Cause: the outside world can't contact the pa server
Effect: game inaccessible, ticks run until someone with server access can get a connection to it and stop them.

Re: game.planetarion.com
thanks for the explanation...if ticks are indeed still running, will we have to back to the most recent db backup?

Re: game.planetarion.com
server itself is not down, it is pingable. web server is down. it isn't a dns issue. that's all i can tell from here atm. (no i'm not pa team just a geek.)
when was most recent db backup? i'd like to know the same.. best scenario would ofc be to rollback right before this happened... anyone know when?

Re: game.planetarion.com
Maybe so people who had put attacks up don't need to do it again? If they start it earlier the scans might be useless.

Re: game.planetarion.com
Well, imagine you were planning to pull at eta 1. It was eta 2 when the game went down. If they restart the game at a different time to what you intended to pull it means that you stand less of a chance to be on to recall. Really its the lower of the evils. IMO, it's the only real solution to any down time.

Re: game.planetarion.com
For more information, the hard drive filled up again. I woke up to find an MSN window flashing at me. Something about not downloading so many lesbian porn movies and leaving them on the server
