Server Updates Tonight
Tonight I will be updating two things. One, players will find interesting. The other they will not care about. Let's start with the boring one.
Thing 1: Update to the game's back-end. Since scheduling player kicks doesn't always work and that can allow a person to log into another's character with the wrong password and deny the use of that character, I've changed how scheduled kicks work. They now are done through the hook instead of relying on Tribe's scheduling. They actually work. *Looks at Shorty*
Thing 2: New healing spells to pick up after advheal5. Since remorters are more likely to actually need them, there is less of a requirement on defensive casting in the name of increased divine casting.
transheal1: 500 Def Cast + 50 Div Cast + RL1 + 15 MP = +120 HP
transheal2: 550 Def Cast + 100 Div Cast + RL1 + 25 MP = +240 HP
transheal3: 600 Def Cast + 150 Div Cast + RL1 + 35 MP = +360 HP

Website Updates
I've updated my hilariously dilapidated and out-of-date computer tour section and have replaced it with the new, shiny & sparkly Particle's Computer Tour 2010, Deluxe Edition Limited Release Gold Sample. Go check it out. There's pie, candy, and even a video! I'm lying about two of those things, but it's still cool if you're bored and need to kill three minutes with low production value video entertainment.

Winner, Winner, Chicken Dinner
It was a close match between Caboose and RedneckNoob there for a while, but RedneckNoob won with 9 points to Caboose's 6. Congrats to him, and thank you all for playing.
He chose a Badge of Honor and the $25 Wal-Mart gift card.
We'll have to do this again pretty soon. Watch for future matches.

Christmas Eve
It's nearly time. I will be giving out some gifts over the holiday season. Either today or tomorrow, I will be on and conducting a trivia contest. The prize will be a badge of the winner's choosing: Friendship, loyalty, reverence, or honor. In addition, the winner will have his/her choice of a $25 prize, deliverable as one of the following: PayPal, BK Gift Card, McDonald's Gift Card, or Wal-Mart Gift Card. You must be willing to provide a mailing address if you want a gift card. You must be willing to provide a PayPal account if you want that.
Happy holidays.

Scheduled Down Time
On Sunday, November 22, 2009 the server will be temporarily offline during the morning hours. I will be performing updates to the host machine and VMs. The system hasn't rebooted for just shy of half a year now, so I imagine it's time to get it up to date. There are also a couple instances of Source dedicated server running that curiously have no corresponding process. Yeah, I didn't know that was possible either. Anyhow, down time should be limited to about an hour and will probably be much less.

Recent Crashes
We've been having a bit of an issue with crashes as of late. The problem looks to be related to a certain failure method triggered by a script run by one of our admins. It doesn't crash Tribes alone--it has been crashing the server platform itself (not the machine but the highly modified software I use to run the game server). I've implemented some updates to the code to help prevent this kind of failure going forward, but only time will tell if I've accounted for everything. I would expect there to be some more bugs waiting to be found.
In the mean time, however, the offending script won't be ran anymore. Thanks for being patient.

Unscheduled Downtime
Hey guys. Our server is semi-online right now. The PCRPG server itself is online and responsive, but most services aren't able to see the Internet right now due to a firewall glitch.
I emailed a tech to bounce it for us, so hopefully it'll be online tomorrow.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
