Thank Ryan. He hasn't had much sleep the last few days.

For those who are "upset" with the site being down, take it from someone who's been here for a number of years. On average the site might go down once a year, and when it does it rarely takes more than 2-3 days to bring it back online.

Oh and look! Results!

http://www.seibertron.com/heavymetalwar ... ion_id=511

The site will still be a little slow for a while too as Ryan is still processing stuff.

If you see any NON-HMW errors, use the bug reporting thread in GD.

No I know what its like to run a website. I use to work for an ISP to earn money while I was in high school and college. I can fully appreciate his time and effort over the past few days.

Consider it fixed, I have deleted the offending character, sorry it took so long to sort out.
Please send me a PM as soon as you have re-created it so I can give you the XP it had earned back again.


For the record: its name was Windblade Zero and it had 315xp.



Anyone else still having this trouble?

I can't seem to activate any of my guys. I made sure that I clicked the activate box and tried both individual and six at a time, several times, but no go. They're all stuck at 'inactive'.

Was Firefox, but I think the cookies were shot on that computer. Works fine on mine, thanks. Sorry for the false alarm.

Looks like the xp calculator is broken... i can't get any special tactics to load when an alt mode is chosen, and it doesn't add up any xp at all.

Not browser dependent: I tried it on Chrome and on Internet Explorer, calculator doesn't work properly on either.

This works for me in FF/Chrome/Opera/IE and Safari, although safari seems glitchy. Good thing I don't use it.

AD I have a basic calculator in excel that I have made. If you want I can mail it to you when I get home.

_Anshin_, yes please, very kind, would be very handy indeed. I'll pm you my e-mail.
Just tested it again, still no luck...
I'm not getting any change for:
- Experience spent
- Number of upgrades
- Level

Perhaps it's certain restrictions here at work and not browser-related, but that would seem very strange to me. Curious, anyhow.

At home now: I've tried the XP Calculator on Firefox AND on iPhone's Safari but in both cases the Calculator is still not working properly :-?

Here's what I'm seeing:

Perhaps a character-based problem?

I'm getting the same. Its not actually calculating the XP and level, or allowing you to add tactics to a build.

Ill get someone to email Ryan and see if he has made any changes to the site that may have had a knock-on effect.
And by someone, I mean Sustain.


Anshin, would you mind uploading your excel sheet to rapidshare (or similar) and making it public until we can sort this out please?
