Board up now?

So now that the board is up... how much HMW data was lost? Sorry if this shouldn't be here. I just didn't see any thread specific to HMW about the site being up.

I have no idea, but it's...weird. I can access every thread in the forums except anything of those dealing with the recent tourny.

The data tables for a number of things appear to still be down. Seib's is likely still working to get everything back up. I know, since I tried to access my HMW profile in the game, it seems that the game is still down. Add to that, I can't visit a single profile right now. Getting similar messages about tables not existing and such. Again, more than likely that they're still down, and Seib's has yet to get them back up. Just be patient everyone. Everything should be back up in time, and Seib's would tell us if it's going to be down longer than he originally thought.

Can anyone else access private messages?

I find it odd that that's the one thing on the control panel not working...




Also, no font colours available. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Interesting...

I can't get the game up, it keeps asking me to declare my allegiance at the top, but nothing is loading up, and I can't get on the bugs thread to post this either.

Anyone else have this problem?

I'm sure to some degree our HMW data is there. I find it hard to believe that there would be no backup done in the last five years.

I've yet to get any answer on how much data was lost, if any. Rest assured I'll let you guys know as soon as I do. Anything else is speculation based on data that is around us, such as the forum posts that are missing.

Speculation since you're making an assumption that the forums exactly mirror the game.

The only observation you can make about the game is that it's not up.

I think not, though i did mean 16 of september, not 16th of june.

what I am currently assuming that seibs formated the drive, then recovered the partition table, but failed to pull any actual data off it.

but what do i know...

Level 3? Try one lvl 10, and a whole bucked load of level 9s..., almost all gained in the last 3 or so months...

It would be interesting if everyone had to start from scratch.

if no one quit it would be pure **** Carnage, which would be fun.

though i doubt everyone would stay, and their would be bitching about altmodes, names, and xp, which would kinda ruin it a little


but i'm looking forward to the carnage, if the game code has survived.

I'm sure that, if we have lost xp etc, we'll get compensation *nudgenudge* :WHISTLE:

Three level 11s, a level 10, a level 9, and a few level 8s. Plus my top guy was the second-highest Autobot. He was all upgraded, and two of my guys were a scant two upgrades away from being finished. :cry: Yikes. Compensation, I hope.
