You should list all beers you can buy in your shop so we can choose what beer to buy for you

Self healing machinery is the only possible solution. Smile, Nod and slowly back away..

your computer is like Christine the car, and can repair itself. It would go on murderous rampages, except it has no wheels.

Did you try percussive maintenance before disassembling your box?

In the military we called them Lockheed Fixes. Sometimes just banging it, or taking it apart and putting it back together, would fix the problem. But I agree it was most likely the connections.

However IF flipping the RAM was the fix then the front stick might have problems. I would run a mem check.

In response to a number of startlingly generous requests, I think I'm going to look into adding a Donate button to the page. I feel a little uncertain though... there is certainly no need for any donations, although I guess I certainly wouldn't object to people offering a bit towards the initial cost of the server, or even just buying me a beer, so long as they emphatically don't feel obliged.
Please do! I'd donate.

My guess is... you were lucky. Resetting everything, including the RAM, set the computer back to operational. I would make a bet that this machine is set to implode again at some point though. It just sounds too fishy.

Default Re: llamaserver and e-mail problems

"llamaserver and e-mail problems",
"LlamaServer 'sploded (though things will be okay)",
"LlamaServer fixed",
"On the mysteries of the LlamaServer 'splosion",
and now even a "Llama server turn time" thread on first page is a little much for my taste. I'm merging all those threads sans the last one.

Default Re: LlamaServer fixed

I have sent 3 emails to llamaserver over 3 hours using 2 different email sources.

I get no response. As it is getting close to deadline, I am going to delay the game, World in Crisis. Llama, if the turn doesn't show in a timely fashion, could you look into it?

If it does, you can force host, if so inclined.

Thanks
