Game server down/up

Jan 29, 2008 RelayeR link
"Stuff is broken" was the message prior to the game server restart.

Back up now.

Bah. Why would you make this thread and force me to explain my message?

A vestigial process we call 25602 got disconnected from erlang. I guess it's not really vestigial in that it's currently vital. It's not part of our new design, but it's temporarily still used for one thing (creating bots). I tried for several minutes to boil this down to something better than "stuff is broken", but in the end I decided getting back to full operation quickly was more important.

And now I will attempt to determine how it happened in the first place.

Oh, that would be my fault. I was making tunafish muffins to hide in Lebers valk and forgot to turn off the stove...
Sorry...
Oh and Leebs, you'll never find them!

Because people need to know? :P

Heh, so it's still stuck in that roid?

That would actually make a cool addition. It'd be like that scene in star wars.

Actually if you get into the big cave in the middle of the the racetrack roid the levis' head is sticking neatly through the wall . Looks like some daft old miner shot it and had it mounted ....
