Swatch0 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 (edited) Just a suggestion for next time...maybe give us a heads up that TE will be down for a while and if you can't do that, at least give us an eta on when TE will be back... Really frustrating that i've heard nothing since it went down. But thanks for everything so far admin, you've been great. o/ Admin o/ TE's return Edited January 2, 2013 by Swatch0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clash Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Every time this happens I keep my fingers crossed for the Godzilla wonder. That, and the Tavern improvement combined with the Brewery wonder. Ooohh. Yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samwise Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 It's kind of like Y2K when all the computers were going to go nuts at year 2,000, but CN style and 13 years too late. (Holy crap. It's been 13 years since y2k. O_O) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingNeptune Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Agree with the sentiment of the OP. It would have been nice to have been given a heads up, polite even! I find it extremely doubtful that maintenance was scheduled for New Year. More likely a forgotten reset / scheduled server reboot, Admin forgot and more than likely won't notice till he's back from his Christmas and New Year hols. Cynical maybe, but I think the disinterest and lack of some form of acknowledgement speaks volumes about the future of this game. Shame really. Hope all concerned have had good holidays and I still appreciate the effort that's put in. Look forward to continuing to play if anyone can be bothered too, or is sober enough to press the appropriate buttons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Komplex Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Very true.. They should give awards like automatac 500tech to your SE nation if u play TE the whole round. They will get many SE players to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There needs to be an easily achieved goal, such as being in the top 100 or top 25%, that requires people to actually [i]play[/i] for the whole round.

Scooby Doo Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Speaks volumes that the system would go down for multiple days. Honestly- I'd be extremely embarrassed if a system I was responsible for went down for multiple days. Is it really that difficult to run servers?

wasso Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I hope this wouldnt happen Swatch . It's just the idea that TE has ONLY 600 nations , and the server cant hold them all , how could this be possible ? Also , Admin ,please consider recruiting new nations from SE to join TE , through giving some prizes . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lazaraus45 Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 I agree, we should be able to plan around these updates so that we can all blitz a night before maintenence ensuring no counter blitz and a 2 day war instead of 5, this games just no fun if everything isn't predictable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clash Posted January 2, 2013 Report Share Posted January 2, 2013 Sometimes stuff breaks, it happens. Anyone who has ever had their own website knows this. Yeah, I know it sucks, but relax people.

Maybe Admin is implementing some past suggestions. I also agree that this could be the end of TE. I don't recall a mid-round take down, ever. And while I am in an agreeing mode, I agree that there are ways that Admin could improve and generate more interest in TE by implementing some past suggestions. It's his call and let's all hope he makes a favorable decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machanidas Posted January 3, 2013 Report Share Posted January 3, 2013 o/ maintenance Despite some low numbers in recent rounds, TE remains an excellent game. Admin will give us our toy back soon enough. In the meantime, hugs for all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
