Inwegen Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 So, we've once again brought Sheepy's server(s) to its(their) knees. Just a minor hiccup again, right Sheepy? 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spooner Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) The server crash/lag resulted in quite a few of us missing the window of opportunity for a pre-daychange blitz (despite starting the assault a half hour before daychange). Really sucks not being able to use your rebuild cap on an assault like that, could have some pretty strong effects a few days downstream from the wasted potential. Oh well.

Administrators Alex Posted June 14, 2016 Administrators Share Posted June 14, 2016 I am actively working on refactoring pages to make them faster. Can only do so much so fast, though. When everyone tries to be active at once, it's hard for the server to keep up. Quote Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Guest Rin Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Can you just increase bandwidth for update this week then bring it back down after the upcoming blitzes? Also if we didn't have a "double buy at update" mechanic, this wouldn't be happening so much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inwegen Posted June 14, 2016 Author Share Posted June 14, 2016 Host it with a more scalable service? Most prominent cloud services can spin up incredibly fast. I have no issues with AWS (or Heroku or IBM, but I prefer AWS) spinning up as needed resulting in 0 controllable downtime. The only downtime I don't control has been when they've had issues. Which has been 1 time in my zone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
