White screen of Death

Wow. Great! And what exactly is incorrect?

Brian said about future.
Most ppl forget about this host file and in the future they will ask "where your site?". Because only reinstalling Windows will help them :)))

[Eus]

True, every average user will probably forget about that. Hosts file is quite used nowdays nevertheless - you want to block an ad company which gives you headaches and makes your favourite game run slow - you add the domain name pointing to 127.0.0.1 -> problem solved. This is just one example. There are some 3D role playing game servers which requires users to make changes to their hosts file, in order to be able to play (this called "private servers"). It's all about the person who uses the computer. It could be troublesome indeed, if they just forget to revert the changes tomorrow morning when everything works fine.

what?

Game is PAUSING till (at least) 10 am GMT

[IsleofNemesis]

The UT jitters aren't as bad as i thought, we here can wait. Good luck with solving the issue. :)

[Atreeus]

the game is pausing? What?

[explague]

how the **** do you PAUSE the game. Does that mean when it starts back up it will be 10 hours behind... the 22nd will now be the 12th? or will the date stay the same, just no ticks for the 10hrs.

That's going to confuse my unpaid/unfed/unhappy soldiers.

[DHaran]

Pause means pause, the dates aren't ticking so nothing will be missed.

[lastunicorn]

Do you think you could freeze it for closer to 12 hours? If not I might need to take an embarrassingly long "restroom break" during an important meeting where I am also trying to make a good first impression.

Pause means pause, the dates aren't ticking so nothing will be missed.

So will the in-game date just continue on from when the game was paused, thus changing how the in-game date corresponds to real world time? I.e. the month change in the game was at 18:00 GMT, but if the game resumes anytime other than 24 hours from when the game was paused, that will change.

Yep!

[cantrips]

The message says the game is "undergoing maintenance" - is this a polite way of saying that you're looking into alternate web hosting? :P Or is the game actually being worked on?

[Lazy]

Its a good thing I have given up trying to figure out what game day corresponds to what real life hour, a while back it was exactly synced to EST but I think now it is slightly off, i just worry about my local time... which is why every page in utopia should display the game date!!

[explague]

not to say i want to go a full 24 hrs without logging, but wouldn't it make more sense just to resume it 24hrs later.
Instead of 10hrs, 14hrs, possibly less or more.
It would make all the dates/times match up. Just means we missed MARCH.. not a big deal.
