Telic Event, Dec. 28 Discussion

[BiG D]

Any discussion for the Swarm event goes here.

 

[Ronin Storm]

Just FYI, Big D, the times for the event are just fine in GMT. vBulletin, being a competent forum, takes account of these things.

Nice one on getting all this setup. I think I'm going to have trouble making the 28th, unfortunately...

 

[Behind You]

I'm getting back from my vacation on the 26th, count me in. Any time a few hours before that or many hours after that works for me.

 

[Pestcontrol]

I may have a lanparty, so i can't give 100% certainty, but i'll probably be there.

 

[Fuzzy Bunny]

I can show up if you need me. If we end up with more than 6, I can sit out

 

[Pestcontrol]

I'm sorry, but it doesn't look like i'll be there. Damn lanparties.

Big_D, i think it's best if you just use webadmin to PW the server and change the title, player slots etc.

 

[Fuzzy Bunny]

I'll be there.

 

[BiG D]

Looks like everything is set, then. We've got some extra space yet, so don't be afraid to sign up if you haven't.

 

[Haven]

I'll be there ... and no I'm not carrying the ammo for all you flamer wh0res !

 

[Ronin Storm]

Good luck with the event tonight! I really can't make this one, but I'm up for another one another time.

 

[Behind You]

Really really sorry I wasn't able to make it, real life did what it does best and got in the way. I'm willing to go for another event though.

 

[BiG D]

Aye, no problem, fuzzy was the only one who showed up in the first hour, and there was an issue with incredible lag, so nothing really went on...

 

[Fuzzy Bunny]

We almost beat Aqueduct on easy... almost...
Should we reschedule this for another time?

 

[BiG D]

Well, time isn't something I have a lot of after this week, so I doubt I'll be able to make it to many events.

Don't let that stop you though, you have the power to organize an event too

 

[Behind You]

The rest of this week isn't great for me, but the following Sunday through Tuesday I'm open.

 

[Ronin Storm]

there was an issue with incredible lag

I'll chat to Haven and Pestcontrol and see if we can figure out what was happening there. Given the reports were both web site and game servers I'm suspecting that it's at ValueServer's end of business.

 

[BiG D]

It seemed to be a packet loss issue, as the server was pinging fine for the most part. It's happened a few times before, once or twice just before the server went down...

 

[Ronin Storm]

Haven wondered if we were having CPU load issues. We'll keep an eye on it.

Whenever there is lag, i always check the server. 95% of the time it's fine, ValueServer themselves seem to be the main cause.
