TW forums post on steam launch

I expect we will see a number of new players come into Chaos. Talk to them kindly, please. We have a chance to gain some new players from this.

I've been in contact with TW sysops about this and, as I have been over the years, trying to guide them in a direction that will help them to retain these new players. Hopefully a bunch will stay in the game and help all the zones.

Schedule for round 7 (out of 14). The second half will just be repeat games, except I'll move some matches around to match current top teams with other top teams and bottom teams with bottom teams near the end to maybe keep some excitement about your placement through the season. Which will eventually sort of backfire as a quick repeated match-up somewhere in the post-season. Also players on rosters will be locked there before the round is played. Unrostered players like Partsi can still join a squad up to.. let's say Round 10.

Round 7 (of 14, mind you) will take place next weekend.
Didn't manage to schedule early, when I tried the servers were being updated, and then we had no biller connection etc. Poop.

Bots back up, so all should good for today's Pro League games and Chaos' fun'n'games!

nm! Caer cancelled the league games today...

As you may have noticed, the Central Biller went down last Wednesday around the time when the two week reset was supposed to occur. The Biller came back up a few hours later, but no reset occurred. After doing maintenance on the bot server yesterday, the Biller did not allow all the bots to log back in, and today it will no longer allow any connections from the bot server to log in. After some experimentation on my part to try and remedy the problem, in a hilarious turn of events, now I also can't log in! 

So, it appears that when the Biller came back up on Wednesday it launched in a bad state and needs to be rebooted. I've sent out the bat signal to try and get that done, but I have no idea when Priit will get to it.

So, if we have no bots, that will impact the weekend's games... The websites and forum remain up.

I'll update when I get more info, but I basically expect the Biller to get rebooted at some point and that will fix the problems. If you see the Biller reboot in the zone (green text that says "NOTICE: Connection to central database server restored"), please post that info here.

Players on rosters will be locked in for all movement after this round and before the next. Technically only just before the next round starts, but with some leeway to protect any super ninja like kicks.

OUTLAWS - B.I.A. -- 1298585

And I'm pretty sure rostered pilots will be locked on to their respective squads before round 7. And playoffs will probably be 2 byes, 4 pro, 2 aml.

I can get into every other zone, apart from Chaos, which I was just in yesterday for league play. I don't know if it has anything to do with this or not, but I travel for work and I've been out of state for about 3 weeks, now I'm back home and my isp is different. Regardless my connection is fine, but chaos won't let me in...it just tries and eventually does nothing, then gives me a crap error msg.

Can someone correct this?

Thanks,

Tidal
