Re: question
lol, i remember arguing with a pa crew last round that the ticker should automaticly stop when the game goes down, and he said it wasnt possible at that time, but they would look into it..
i know this has been a issue for several rounds, but they never seem to learn from it..

The server has to know that the game is down thou, and as far as JPAWEB01 was aware, it was still online and working fine (I know this, as i have been emailed throughout the morning from main.planetarion.com when the dumper script completes), I can't say what went wrong, i can't say why it happened, nor can i say if there will be a roll back or not.
The point is, its not as easy as you think to detect if a server is 'down'.

Re: question
Heh.
I'm really amused.
It's like the peak of pay to play and the ticker is still on it's - well, round 5 marker. Even with the tiny playerbase.

the alliance ranking on the portal works correctly for the data i am given. IF Spinner / Fudge chose to use diff data in game, so be it (i think its something to do with recruit status (not game but given to me in the dumps... thats the conclusion i came to after speaking to some HCs)

No, it's just my old forum account wich apparently (due lack of pa-history revision) doesn't contain any sort of clue about my IRC nicking.
I did spam your query on IRC, you ignorant boy.

So this means infact you have all needed data to give out an correct allianceranking. which in return means spinner lied again to us that there was no such thing available. since we all know (i think youll support this with your codeing knowledge mit) that changeing the codes ingame wouldnt take even 20 minutes to diplay the dumb you are useing.
