[TECH] Unified announcement thread for Pitbosses/NatNeg Server hosted by Caledorn

Yeah, at last check only the PB18 instance survived being hosted on my server. After the rest of the games kept crashing I threw in the towel. The usual server should be available in a few days. For such a short period of expected down time I'm not spending more time on troubleshooting the problems to find out why the games kept crashing... The fun \ hassle ratio on the recovery project is sliding the wrong direction for now...I dropped an inadvertent F-bomb with my son in the room yesterday when one of the instances crashed. (And to prove he does listen sometimes he immediately pointed out "Daddy, we don't use that word!") shhh Oops!

No, PB18 is the sole survivor. The pitboss program window for 18 is still open, hasn't crashed anyway, so it should be reachable. 8:33 on the clock, dtay and TBS to play.

All games other than PB18 remain offline until Caledorn reports back that his server is available again. I haven't talked to Cal since Sunday, so I don't have anything new to report, but he'll let me know when the server is available for us.

Update, since my server bounced this morning I haven't been able to get PB18 going again, it crashes every time I launch. However, today's lucky game is: PB23!!

For whatever reason PB23 is staying up without crashing so far. CH tested logging in and it didn't explode, so we can call PB23 open for business. Players, use the information I PMed to you previously to connect. Maybe it will stay up....

Has anyone contacted Sunrise? He can only host a single mod game, but we could at least get one more going...

I emailed/PMed him over the weekend but didn't hear back.

I got an update from Cal this morning -- parts still haven't arrived, so the server is still down. No ETA on when they will get there.
