But it was a backup from 11 days ago, therefor I bet if the Alt generator runs again, we'll get differnet results... :-B

it's a rotator, not generator. pathetic autobot science.

Rotator, still has a random generation of choices...

The rotator is not random. It cycles through the list.

HMW was up yesterday? Must have been before I logged on to get the "Seibs will return after these messages" page instead of anything else.

*sigh* if I wasn't so busy I'd be missing HMW really bad right now.

Thanks OS...

But then do the rare alts loose their rarity? If you just wait long enough they'll be back...

by **Tammuz** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 2:56 pm

the question is whether or not it will acknowledge last tuesday.

EDIT: Rare alts takes longer to rotate back in, CJB, as a smaller fraction of them are available each rotation

by **chrisjbrandon** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 3:04 pm

But if they're gonna rotate in anyway, you just wait 3 or 4 rotations, and poof they're back...

by **Tammuz** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 3:12 pm

it takes longer than that for the commons to fully rotate through.

EDIT:
Cons
Rare = 41(18weeks to fully cycle)
Common = 128(8weeks)

Bots
Rare = 46(20weeks)
Common = 129(8weeks)

becuase the total amount of alts in each class doesn't divide about the amount cycled in every rotation, it may take one less cycle for a given alt to pop up.

HMW worked. And Zero was happy.

Exigazer alt was rotated in. And Zero was happy.

Zero had the day off from work, thinking HMW worked. And Zero was happy.

Then Seibertron vanished, later popping up the commercial break message. And Zero was sad.

HMW is down, and Zero has no money for booze, and Zero has to go to work at Gamestop 3 days before XMas. Zero is sad and depressed.

All Zero wants for christmas is boobs, booze, and HMW. Is that to much to ask?

by **chrisjbrandon** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 4:09 pm

No Zero, that's not too much to ask, I wish I could accommodate u, man... :APPLAUSE:

Oh well that's great amount of info Tammuz... Thanks...

Hey, I played again for the first time in like two years last night and then it went down for the entirety of my 4 year anniversary, but I'm not sure anyone is really happy with it being down.

Wish I knew when it'd be back though, but I know time it's down won't be time wasted.

by **Tammuz** » Sat Dec 22, 2007 5:21 pm

i'm a scientist, working out stuff is my job.

now if only i could get to play HMW at work....

Well I most certaintly didn't support the "Bring back Bun-Bun" campaign.

That's ok.
I didn't support the "Vote for Burn, cause he's going to be voted in by n00bs anyways so we might as well get him out of the way and quit splitting the vote" campaign. :wink:

Too busy suffering from the heat and watching Die Hard 4.0, followed by Black Sheep.

I heartily recommend Black Sheep .... to be avoided!

Yeah, yeah... Rub it in that you're south of the Equator and hitting summer. Here in the mid-west U.S. we're freezing our bearings off.

I think, sad to say, HMW may be what caused the site crash. Seibs mentioned a setting that he thought would allow it to work (in a thread that no longer exists), but after a round of missions the whole of the site went down. Patience all! Things will be fixed and be great and life will have meaning again! :HALUC:

I should have.

Can you imagine the number of defections we would have gotten for the Preds if HO was elected :twisted:

Guess I should start campaigning for him...

*edit, just realized there is now a limit on the number of embedded quotes you can have in a post... bet that's gonna kill alot of fun for the spammers in the party forum

Nah, it's set in new zealand, and is like a cross between a zombie movie, a wearwolf movie, and a mobive about sheep.
I liked it... even if it did use horendously outdated puppetry for some its effects.

And there were a few interesting topics I was partaking in, and it is slightly annoying to utterly loose all of them.

Darkmount is once again there for all to see (though it's easier to post again), the pictures are still all cropped dispite (at least on my screen with my resolution) there being a good 5th of the screen with nothing but BG, and once again we;ve had to redo our sigs n avvies n **** AGAIN.

Oh... And HMW is still down...

So yeah, not a vast improvment, all in all.
Vote Redimus for round 5!
Better RED than DEAD!

I have a latter day G1 Shouki, and a Train Robo (Diaclone) Getsuei, but I still need the 4 others to complete Raiden!
PLEASE PM me if you find any auctions or online shops with the remaining G1 trainbots!

*Sighs* Its so sad that nobody when nobody gets the point. Black Sheep is a brilliant movie! Its supposed to be a pisstake on the whole NZ + sheep joke that those Aussies seem so fond of tellin so much and a homage to Peter Jackson's film work... You liked the special effects in LOTR? Try hiring Bad Taste and Meet the Feebles from your nearest vid store and then youll see what I mean.
Bad puppetry?!.... *sighs*

Having to deal with smaller avatars, info being on the right instead of left, picture cut-offs, boring layout, no quotes/weapons on the top of the post, and all was irritating enough, but then we had to lose everything. I feel bad for all those in the RPG. They managed to save a lot of it but the recent pages are gone, so posters who took a day off or so are going to have no clue how to get started again. We're lucky. HMW is relatively easy to get back into after a wipe, at least more so than the RPG.
