There was a db error and it crashed the game. To make it even worse, the last auto backup didn't run. I'm sorry about the error. I have discovered what it was and have fixed it. Seems there are still some ghosts from WoW that want to haunt us every now and then :(

well those top 4 sky states would def have taken 1-4 bar any big wars...

They won anyway... I hope the record will show that in some way.

I'm not Sky's biggest fan, but they deserve to have that on record.

Mr. P I hope you will consider giving those top states (well top one anyway) #13 the premium bonus a top state gets for finishing 1st...

He would have won I am sure.

I have already spoken to 1 of the top4 Sky states... he is understanding... but I feel Kris and the others may be upset (I would be)

Anyway... at least the game isnt Broken!

On we got to April... was a pretty boring set anyway.

I sent in a support ticket to try and see if the server co can do a backup. If they can and it's recent then we'll finish the round. If not, then we will start a new round in 6 days.

I am working to get a backup put back on the db. As long as it's not too far back I will go ahead and have it done. if it's more then 2 days then i won't do it.

We can work with 2 days. I can adjust the turns and we can end the set in time. Just won't have a large waiting time till the next round begins. I do feel
bad for Nations who worked hard.

I was at 58m NW and had a completely full bank. :( plus 2 more days of turns I was looking at 120-125M NW. I think top 10 material but probably not top 5. Kind of sucks for all the stockers... having a backup being restored would be nice.

This is just ***.

A biased game host.....just as we are to spill some turns in finishing a state.

He pulls out the plug!!!

If you give my new state a 40B start I wont press charges!(or rub asbestos in your nostrills!)

75B lost and I was online 15 minutes before it crashed

Mr President

I'm really sorry guys. It looks like we are stuck like this. The server companies backups are more than 48hrs old.

Perhaps this set wasn't in the cards for us. Our own backup system fails and during that time the server co doesn't do a backup either.. lol Strange odds.

I'm very sorry to the top states and nations. You got screwed out of some net. All states that were in the top 10 when the crash happened will receive a 1 month premium. For those who had enough stock to jump into the top 10, you will get a lolly pop. :)

Again I'm sorry this happened.

No biggie.

I guess kris is the only one who really got hurt with that one. Pretty sure he had the possibility to go for 400-500m networth. I was going for 300. At the moment of the crash I had just sold 45m ships, so I had money/food for ~400 turns, so I think 300m could have been feasible. Dunno what Margus's goals were, probably higher than mine anyway.

So yeah, too bad :(

Sky was having one of the best set over a very long period of time and now it's all gone. But hey, you said you were tired of seeing the same people win set after set so now I'll leave room to others.

Haha :D But that great going set dissappointed me since I wanted to see Sky onto LoR.

well since farmer produces more than indy and it's a lot better to keep expenses low, I calced that it would of been possible to get around 450m nw when buying half ships from bm and half from public market with my stock.
I also remember when my 650m+ nw record (can't remember exactly how much it was) was lost because of a database error... :/

Of course it's logical that netting nation is going to declare a war because of one triple SA. However terrorist bombing my buildings is another story...
