    yea, we are just that good apparently. out of the 11k "claimed" members, there couldnt have been more than a few thousand online at the time. i myself was in class and im sure many others were offline as well.

    DoS must be it :P

    I don't get it.... If ford made a model of car... and every one blew up minutes off the line they'd stop making cars.... why is programming immune to quality control??? I understand we don't pay to play but all them ads must generate revenue either PPC or by the '000 page load. Either way. If i did my job as shoddily as this has been done for the last couple weeks I'd be standing in line @ the soup kitchen.

    I feel like crying lol! I pushed the button to attack and it crapped out after I had it all ready to attack.Scripts my azz,this piece of donkey dung code needs to be improved to handle at least 5k players on at one time.I bet there was at most 3k guys on 1/4 of the server at most when it crapped out again.This poor bastard can thank OMAC along with his other 3 buddies from his KD.Was gonna do a set of 4 hits,had all 4 of them's intel.Was gonna do 2 plunders and 2 T/M's.Man I hope this thing works properly when it starts again.

    There was an error on trying to load my throne page I noticed also,was showing a big string of codes etc. that I shouldn't have been able to see-kinda weird.So used MY military advisor for OME for dragonportal.

    All for not :(

    they are going to make us wait at the top of every hour cause of ticking? WTF - When there were 100K+ players mehul NEVER had a problem - at least not one he couldnt promptly fix - with that!

    Indian is right!@ And no way do they have a friggin clue - ever heard of CAPACITY PLANNING SIMULATORS or um TESTING YOUR CRAP CODE BEFORE DUMPING IT ON US -

    "Server down temporarily.
    We have taken the server offline again. Upon opening up the site at 20:34 GMT this evening it was innundated with traffic. We need to assess whether this was from scripted bots, whether it was malicious or whether it was simply due to high demand from players.
    We do not expect to open up the server again this evening. We will update again in the morning."

    GDM, these two guys have no clue about Utopia...it's f@#$ obvious why the server crashed, you 'turds! Your server and also coding style cannot handle more than few hundred players...

    anyway....back to RL....I kinda started to enjoy it:P

    Will they have to do a further assessment of player vs bot everytime they restart the most important & high traffic log in of the game? Can't find my thread but 7x spells, 1x military, 1 time sci, 1 draft change = 10 server requests per person + theft + attax + AID with everyone having cash built up that can be stolen & troops to train > this is the first log in oop = incredibly high log ins - make or break your entire game.

    At least open up the game & let ppl input their spells, military, sci requests, stance etc now (as at game start) (not taking effect til game start ofc) & get some of the traffic off the server.

    Doubt if more than 20 - 40% of peeps will be attacking oop.

    Let's get the fing game going & get past this high user period so we can get on with our lives.
    Shaken not stirred.

    You can't attack -- it goes to an Oops page, or it did, when it was up.

    We all have lives of some sort. We just also love playing this game for a whole host of different reasons. We just want to play. So everytime it is online we are going to be logging in and desperately trying to get everything up.

    The whole code and server clearly cant handle the requests or however it works.
