And ignore my response because I actually check my e-mails before the forums. :lol:

For the record though, I check my e-mails and deploy simultaneously. :wink:

The site will randomly log me into someone else's account, and I am able to send their bots out on missions and stuff

Is it the same account each time or different?

I just logged on here from the Wii a couple of hours ago for the first time and I was able to do the same thing. I didn't try to send any to missions, I then logged in under my account and had no problems. Weird though.

had a very odd occurrence when I clicked on the Game tab to go to heavy metal war, the system logged me in to the player Anonymous' registry even thought I had not logged in at all

I suggest you look into this just in case something is wrong

We know about it. It only happens when people aren't logged in as themselves.

I hate to say this but the CR Chamber is working for free. This is great because then i get to keep all of my money but then there is no challenge. Is this just me? or is it supposed to do that at level 0

Are you sure? I just checked and all of my bots are in the system for 172, 126, 200, and 200.

I also checked my math and the correct amount was taken out for the auto placement as well as for regeneration.

I just raised Iron Pig's strength from 5 to 6, but when I went to install that extra ton of iron armor, only aluminum was available. I've never seen this happen before. Is there an upper limit for certain armor types, or are there certain times that not every armor is available, even if you have sufficient rank?

Hey man awesome job on that 20k XP pull on the Hell mission.
To answer your question your faction may be out of Iron.

Check the armor section. If you don't see the iron, then your resources have been depleted for that section.

Aluminum / Iron are rank 0 and you don't need any points into rank for it.

Oh, right, each team has its own reserves. Somehow I never knew that. If I win the contest, I'll reset THEIR OWN ASS into an allicon and remove his iron. It was a good joke for a while.

Thanks for the shout-out Anshin, and I'm sorry your contest hasn't gotten a bigger response. The categories are good ideas, but maybe some thought it was all too complicated. Is the deadline 11:59 PM Saturday?

Yeah I had a feeling that people thought it was too complicated. I will be setting another one up in a week or so, so keep an eye out for it.

Yes the contests ends at 11:59pm (23:59hrs). After that I will award any winners the awards. The Mods will have to go through the submissions (You) for the alt awards. I would strip down one of my alts of Iron if I thought it would help you, but alas I can't donate across factions.

Weapon: "Claw" Flame-Throwers
Just recently everytime i upgrade tactics on any of my tf's i get a error message like this

GAME ERROR
________ doesn't have enough experience to raise Strafe another point.

________ doesn't have enough experience to raise Strafe another point.

So it seems to think i input upgrading tactics twice but this same thing doesnt happen when i upgrade anything else.

It's a Firefox thing. I don't think it happens in IE.

I just got that bug as well, with all five of my characters. Whats worse is that I can't even see the log of the mission in the first place.

Looks like the Mission Tables were reset. If you look at any mission now it has started over from 1. Your mission logs were cleared because those missions logs no longer exist. Chances are you and I both entered missions while the mission logs were being reset and effectively kicked out and damaged. Just gotta CR them and trust that this won't happen for about another 3-4 months. ;)

I got scared when I went to the command bulletin and saw that I had no mission logs and my bot was in misson number 5.But at least now people dont have to look at my crapy arena logs. :-$
When I look back at the posts I made all those years ago, my grammar makes me want to hurl.

Unknowns are back. For right now stay out unless you have enough money to cover constant CR trips.

So far my total cost is 5k.

The entire site has been moved to a new server and Ryan has a LOT of kinks to work out of it. So until such time as you hear from us, just don't play.

Saw the post yesterday on Facebook and the updates. However I figured since the servers were up for an hour earlier it was safe.
