Wiki server went down for what should have been relatively quick upgrades, but ran into some unfamiliar issues. Unknown downtime. Sorry

EDIT: Should be fixed, everything looking good, but let me know if any issues are noticed.

The wiki is never coming back.

As always, let me know if you see any problems.

Olaf

This is correct.
Server was crapping out again, so I shut it down. Haven't been able to backup yet, to then be able to reinstall, and hopefully be fixed. Might turn back on wiki in read-only mode, but will still have server errors.

Olaf

Tracked down the problem to the entire drive (all 24gb) being full, still tracking down the exact cause of that, though. It also ties into the wonkiness I'd been seeing previously. The root cause is probably the same.

Olaf

I'm very sorry for the big downtime. I probably won't be able to try to fix it until Monday. And I'm thinking it will involve a complete reinstall.
Again, sorry, it's driving me crazy, and I haven't been able to devote time to it yet.

Olaf

There's been some screwyness for the past week or so that I haven't been able to track down the cause of yet. Until now, it hadn't affected hosted sites, though.

It's back up now, but let me know if it drops out again.

Olaf

Testing it for now. I'd tried Project Wonderful quite a while ago for maybe half a day, and stopped for stupid moralistic reasons, but server costs add up over the years. If it doesn't make a significant amount of money (current projections are only like 40 cents a month), I'll get rid of the ads. P...

Olaf

You know, I might as well get in on this.

Bon Voyage, erfMortium!

Olaf

Kinak with more puns? So, just Ryme?

Olaf

What is your purpose for posting the sale logs?

Olaf

There isn't any mechanic for staging a coup d'etat Somewhat related, we need better permissions in leagues. For one, the ability to set someone as a "leader" with most permissions, without fear of getting kicked or de-leadered from their own league. Maybe just a buying stuff/distributing stuff perm...

This is a standard-issue framing hammer just like you can find at the local hardware store or a fine online retailer. It's not particularly intimidating, but it'll scare any criminals made of wood or drywall. Well, probably.

Olaf

Quick migration. Will be down for about an hour at most.
EDIT: All done!

All the cool kids are building their own Raspberry Pi tablets.

As a runner-up, I don't want to hear "oh, the winner paid one star more than your maximum bid." Because, despite that being the whole point, hearing it is always a kick in the gut. I understand reasons for it staying the way it is, though avoiding hurting people's feelings is a bit iffy. Maybe an e...

Olaf

It would be nice if we could see what prices recent auctions have finished at. Currently, only sellers and winners know.

Olaf

Still looking into how exactly it happened, but the wiki is down 3/31 and it's all my fault. All data is fine, but we might have to have an image upload party when this is all over. EDIT: Good news, it looks like only extensions are affected. EDIT 2: All clear! Hopefully I don't make that mistake ag...

Last Nostronomian doesn't seem to be working. He doesn't give a leaving message, and just joins me again when I go back to Renegade Robots. I've never actually seen it before; just going off what the wiki says should be happening.

Olaf

Bedraggled Squire doesn't start Riding in the Lists, both with and without sidekick. Third time with horse transportation worked, though. I assume this is recent revamp related.

Olaf

I'll look into it. Temporarily, I could just change the question asked. Ideal solution, I think is some kind of api setup ingame that you can't create a wiki account without a game account. I'll look for a plugin or something for manual activation. It still wouldn't stop the actual account creation,...

Olaf

This Guy should be a villain.

Only name I could think of Suspicious Activist, but then it sounds like he should be at the university riot, but he doesn't look the part. Apparently his name is Boris, though. "Boris the Burglar" to be specific.

Olaf

Host is doing some server maintenance, so will go down within the next hour, but shouldn't be down very long.

EDIT: All done. Everything looks fine, but let me know.

Olaf

My vote is for Joe Schmoe.

Olaf

This is maybe a better Ryme question, but if you were to start TH from scratch, back when it did, but with the knowledge you have now, what would you do differently?

Didn't know we had that in the first place. All I can find is that the ability to /disable/ it had been removed in the current version. Will look into it more later.

Olaf

Yes, sorry, both the breaking and fixing was my fault. I had been messing with something new before going to bed, and forgot to check in the morning. That specific issue has been resolved.

Olaf

Wiki down for several hours today. Reconfiguring everything, hopefully will avoid the reoccurring problem. Future unplanned downtime should only be a result of my own stupidity.

EDIT: Wiki uploaded. Let me know any problems, thanks.

Olaf

It's not the host (I don't think), it's somewhere in my config that just hiccups and I have to restart it. It's been an issue for a while, but since it was only maybe once every couple months at most, I just let it be. I'll look into it more tonight, but having local computer troubles right now, too...

Olaf

Good stuff. The park with the zoo and museums is Balboa Park.
Next time you're in SD, you should check out the Wild Animal Park, too, if you've not already.

Something making the rounds on tumblr that seemed relevant to here:
Click on it twice. These are your two super powers.

I got Intuitive Empathy and Force Armor Generation. Not too shabby.

Olaf

Since the bosses, at least the current one, resets after each day (I'm assuming), it would be helpful if there would be some way to know if anyone else has contributed to the fight without wading into combat to see what stage the villain is on. I agree with this. Having the records room end-of-figh...

Only the first 20, alphabetically.

To go along with that, I made this userbar a while ago. Just uploaded it to the wiki, and feel free to use it wherever, or even host it yourself somewhere. http://th.blandsauce.com/wiki/images/9/9a/Userbar_th_26a.png [url=http://twilightheroes.com][img]http://th.blandsauce.com/wiki/images/9/9a/Userb...

Olaf

The wiki is back up and should be working except for email functions, so getting a new password won't work at this time. I will work on that within the next couple days.

Olaf

The server needs to have some heavy reconfiguring. I plan to take down the site around 6 pm Pacific Time 1/13/12 and potentially could be down for the whole weekend.
All data should be backed up at time of takedown, so no changes should be lost.

Harry Dresden wrote:Question: How impossible would it be to create a World of Warcraft-esque system for linking to item descriptions in chat via control-click?

Curious about this. Is it just Ctrl-clicking an item ingame causes you to say the item name in chat, which when clicked brings up the description window?

Where are you talking about? This forum, or Metroplexity's? Because this one is already phpBB3. And talking about Metroplexity's doesn't make sense in context. :/
