LlamaServer issue aftermath

[llamabeast]

There are two issues outstanding now I fixed the llamaserver:

1) Lots of games ignored hosting delays and I think possibly the ones which disappeared actually hosted early. Very sorry about this.

2) The games which disappeared now have a hosting interval of 48 hours. Make sure to change this if you want to.

Once again, apologies for the chaos. I like to think the chaotic period of the llamaserver is long into the past by now, so this was a bit annoying (bit of a waste of an evening for me too).

our game "Speterf" has reappeared on llamaserver!
thank you very much for your help :bow:

Also I think for such games the heads-up email warning interval was also reset to 12 hours - at least it happened in our game.

And thanks a lot you Lama for taking care of this problem.

Thanks for fixing the problem, sounds like quite a time-sap for you.

Llamaserver seems not to recieve the turn's mails, at least I'm playing as Oceania in Babel_tower and till now no recieved turn confirmed.

It used to be pretty bad in the early days, when it was quite unstable. Mostly I didn't mind - it's a hobby after all - but sometimes it used to drive my girlfriend a bit mad. Thankfully it's been very well behaved for a long time now - the last few weeks excepted.

It tried to go down again last night - the game "FirstBlood" took an infinite time to host again (a rare bug in dominions itself which keeps on afflicting that game), but my newly implemented system timed it out after three hours and saved the server from noticeable issues - muwahaha!


dehm - I'm not aware of any problem with the e-mail checking - is it working now? I'm pretty sure there's no problem there, but occasionally the server is slow to respond (if my internet at home has gone slow), and sometimes it is worth trying a resend.

Not to be a bother, but I just though I should report that some of the games seem to have lost the staling data.

[llamabeast]

Oh yes, I think that all the ones which disappeared did. I can probably restore it if it would be helpful?

[Executor]

I wouldn't mind having the staling data in the games I'm admining of course, as would others I presume,

A Song of Fire and Ice,
Kings of Drama,
World of Symmetry,
Dragon Wars,
Great Forum,
SharpAxe,
Speterf,

These seem to be the games without the stale data.
Some of the games that disappeared seem to still have them.

Hi

Excuse me, the llamaserver seems to recieve my turn.

It is stopped now to solve the turn but that happens sometimes.

Llamaserver seems to have gone on strike,
last update 2.5 hours ago.

[llamabeast]

Aargh, this is caused by recent problems in our internet connection at my house. It's getting a bit ridiculous - think we will change providers ASAP.

Not seeing an New thread, so I post it here.
Seems like the Server went into the weekend on
Friday.

Llamaserver seems to be on strike. Last update was ~5 hours ago.

Just in case nobody noticed ;)

Yeap, it ain't hosting games.
