Re: Bug is back Admin
Ok, the last backup of the game I have is from several hours before the war started (8th june, 00:30 GMT or INGAME 8 june, 15:30).
Anyone even so much as secretly discussing why that particular time, will get their account banned permanently, I am in no mood to waste my time responding to spam right now, discussion is forbidden now and in the future.
Now, we have 2 alternatives.
I throw in the last backup which takes about 2 minutes and you guys can go bash your heads in with your enormous egos.
Or I spend my afternoon and probably half the night, or maybe until the morning...
Writing a script to:
1) reverse run everything that has been done since the first illegal login until now (weapon sales/purchases, untrainings, trainings, attacks, trade center actions, message sends, resource sendings, etc.)
2) forward run everything that has been killed and lost to be applied to the respective alliances ME (as well as obviously recreating the alliances)
I am certain everyone will want to wager to wait so that specific strategical advantages both sides are under the delusion of having can be kept as much as possible.
However there is a possibility that I will run into an obstacle that will make it impossible to have a clean run through the logs for whatever reason.

if necessary i can write a summary of those episodes
I definitely do not believe you till i see this summary in the next hours...
But then you had enough time to see these episodes since this all happened...
Admin do what you think is right, this is your game after all :p
I say we try to focus into fixing the bug + finding the one responsible for this as first priority...
Losing the war is a bummer but c'est la vie...
But it will be fun...
Imagine castravete rolling back inside FIRE and playing the loyal subject

One other thing. You can put the entire server on 24 hours of PPT while you fix up the patches.

what patches?stars wrote:One other thing. You can put the entire server on 24 hours of PPT while you fix up the patches.
the bug is fixed, it was within 5 minutes of me finding this thread.
it's the aftermath, please read the last post
and yeh, ppt ain't gonna happen, there's smarter things that can be done, dont see why they shouldn't be just because other admins are lazy bums

So you're making the 2nd option?

Re: Bug is back Admin
I think the only ME that would be gained would be the items done from the time of the back up to just before the bug.

Re: Bug is back Admin
obviously, but it's still a pain
As I said, either I can have the game running in 2 minutes or 6-12 hours. Depending on what the end result should be.
I am personally hurt in my pride so I'll go for the latter option, not letting a wanker force a rollback.
If they are feeling pro they can try hack the host to actually get directly into the database, that's probably the only time I'll be forced to do a rollback.

no it's not possible to block it effectively.Vesper wrote:Maybe after this bug is patched you can make it impossible to log in through a proxy server? I Know a few games that have coding like that. Not sure how it is done though
It's a check on the level of a child safety. Some troglodyte would get stopped by it, but considering it's the "smarter" people are the reason someone does it, then it's a total waste because a) you will never get a full list of proxies and b) you can easily make new proxies
Re: Bug is back Admin
I vote the first alternative; seems to me the fastest & cleanest way to get the game back up, & I do understand what will be lost if/when this is done... sorry guys JMO...

Re: Bug is back Admin
The last roll back was an hour or two before TIE hit castravete if i remember correctly. If it was one of the massed accounts attempting to force a roll back to before they got massed then they accomplished their goal. That is why I think it is best that we put things back to how there were up until a bit before the hack occurred. Perhaps admin can go through and sort the code until the activity slowed down. To save admin trouble and time I would ask that he only recalls information leading up to last night 00:00 game time. That will save the admin some trouble and afaik nothing happened from 00:00 gametime and the time of the hack that would impact the server other then farming. If someone did any large scale massing then by all means add that in as well but I know that TIE massed best but I believe that we were done by 00:00 gametime.
If everyone agrees to this I think it will make life easier on the admin.

Re: Bug is back Admin
Ok, so I went over the logs and I basically need to run back 14k pageviews since the first illegitimate login to reverse whatever shit happened.
And I need to run forward several thousand attacks, sabs and assassinations to be correctly added to war experience of several hundred different players.
That'll be heck of a fun
And no, I wont be running it back to the time when you suggest vesper, you got the times wrong

That sounds like a good plan.
I think rolling-back the server when there is such a huge war raging (i.e. i d say close to half the server is directly involved) should be a option of last resort given the huge ramifications it should have.
That said - admin if you honestly feel the difficulty involved in sorting through the damage done by this bug is too great proportionally to the benefits gained from allowing the server to progress "naturally" without the benefits of hind-sight.... then do the roll-back.
If there's a reasonable chance you can fix the damage done and keep the server as it is though - that i think should be the priority lol

Re: Bug is back Admin
I think I made it pretty clear I wont make a rollback considering I have a list of all pages visited and probably a list of 98% of the actions that people did.
But as I said, it'll be a while

Re: Bug is back Admin
tbh I consider this a "hacker" fail.
They logged into admin account, looked around, found no special pages, and left.
Now imagine this'd be dune ....
