MP: Noobs & Vets: Rise of the AI Menace. EA, BI. Game Over. Team ACGHHS wins!

[Septimius Severus]

I'm adding 24 hours to the current turn to allow time for any more players who need to patch and to honor a delay request by Chrispedersen.

[Squirrelloid]

I don't know where my team is... don't suppose they could be given 6h or something, if Sept is watching this.

[Septimius Severus]

Ok, I'll throw another 6 hours on the clock and see what happens.

[chrispedersen]

We suspect that the turn hosted early. I am sending a message to Gandalf and Sept.

[DrPraetorious]

It most certainly did not - I was watching the timer.

[chrispedersen]

When the timer on the page said 5 hours to go, that corresponded to 1:30am for Grudge.

Grudge got up at 12:30 am and sent the turn. And was staled.

The current turn was sent March 17, 17:28.
The last turn was sent March 13, 12:27.

Since 6 hours was added to the time, it *clearly* shows it hosted an hour early.

March 13: 1227
March 14: 12:27 (24 hours)
March 15: 12:27 (48 hours)
March 16: 12:27 (72 hours)
March 17: 12:27 (96 hours)
March 17: 18:27 HOSTING TIME.

And since it hosted at 17:28 IT HOSTED AN HOUR EARLY.

[Gandalf Parker]

The timer never says time to go. It gives an absolute time, and an approximate countdown in hours. Which I have always said "sucks".

But testing it at the moment, it says
The game last hosted on Tue Mar 16 22:27:33 PDT 2010
And should host again on Fri Mar 19 22:27:00 2010
The NaV.cfg is set for 72 hours, approximately 34 more hours.

I have 12:22
plus 24 hours would be
12:22
plus 10 more would be
22:22
For an approximate countdown its not looking too bad.

And everything on my system from timer logs and including a pretty clear sequence of emails, seems to show that you missed the stated hosting time (not the countdown) by one minute. I have no idea what the countdown timer was.

Everything I have on it has been sent to Septimius

[chrispedersen]

Gandalf;

Just look at my previous entry in the thread. I listed the time of the previous turn, and the time the current turn.

They hosted 101 hours apart, not 102. Ie., an hour early.

[Gandalf Parker]

That might have been because of daylight savings time in my area. The clocks rolled back an hour.
Im not sure how. But it still would have reflected plainly on the webpage.

[GrudgeBringer]

Just in case there is a doubt...is there any way I can copy my 'sent turn' file and post it so it shows I sent it in BEFORE 12:30 AM CST (lol, well 2 minutes before, but before)
