Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

Unlikely. I don't think there's a way to prevent the other players from resubmitting their turn. And there's not a way to really distinguish the ones who had their orders processed correctly from the ones who didn't... :( (notice that I trust the community, it's just that the doubt may remain for the entire game, as Llamabeast points out)

Anyway I obviously suggest you to wait for Llamabeast, surely he can give you better informations about that. :smirk:

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

The game is down to six players. One of them had a stale turn so I think I will consult with the rest of the players and if no one object roll back the turn. If someone objects well, we'll just have to accept this as something like an unlucky event message:
"
Your lab at xxx was destroyed.
The powers that be has intervened and this turn your followers have not followed your orders.
"

:)

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

Your game may be different than the one I am in or perhaps others.

But I DO know of one player in our game that sent his turn in twice during the mess and it never took.

All of a sudden out of the blue a new TURN 43 came in (that was the same turn that was out when the meltdown happened).

He said he loaded it to make sure that he didn't need to redo his turn because of the mess...HOWEVER it now read in the game Turn 44 and said he staled.

A couple of hours later a turn 44 came in and also said he staled.

You guys do what you want...but in our game EVERONE is at war with someone and when its NO fault of 5 people or 1 person I think you roll the turn back.

If it was 5 of you and the one person had a wonderful thing happen to him you certainly wouldn't take it as a 'your Lab was destroyed' event. You would vote to roll it back.

As I said, its your game do what you want but I know that if they don't roll it back in our game at least 1 person will just say AI me and I don't blame him.:eek:

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

What's up with llamaserver?
I see on the page that it's back and I've gotten a turn file from one game but not from the other.
So should I play the turn I got or should I wait or ...?

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

There's a message here:

http://www.llamaserver.net/index.cgi

I'd play the turn because ... hey what else are you gonna do, when the llamaserver's down?

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

hmm i just got a "llamaserver has recieved revised turn 25 for Jomon" email. That was last turn... we've all recieved turn 26...

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

Its pretty much messed for everything I think.

I'm planning on rolling back in all my games (or asking for it) to the last turn before the server died, I'm not sure what else to do really.

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

well, the turn's i've received in my 3 games have all been fine. rollbacks should only be done if a game actually was ****ed up, like giving someone a forced stale.

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

I'm just off out, so haven't got time right now to read all these posts. However, I just thought I'd let you know that the server is now back up and running normally. Hurrah!

I had abortive attempts to get it going both on Tuesday and Wednesday, which explains it appearing to come to life then, and then not doing anything.

Also please read the e-mail you should all just have received. The only really potentially messy situation is if you were one of those who got sent new turn files both on Tuesday and Wednesday. In that case, it's very important that you delete any 2h file you may have produced from Tuesday's turn, and take your turn using Wednesday's file.

I don't anticipate many games will need rollbacks. It may have looked crazy from the outside (it sent a lot of mad e-mails), but I don't think too much crazy stuff actually happened to the games in the end.

Re: Llamaserver: I´m being mailbombed!
 

Oh yeah - I you think you sent a turn in, check it's arrived. I had to delete a mailbox full at one point because it had got itself in a tangle. I think it had already read most of them, but maybe not all.
