I think it's a computer problem on the server's end. We would have to wait until it is manually restarted.

*drumming my fingers* i am getting impatient waiting to find out if i'm a greasy spot on the floor of despise.
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Garrick on October 09, 2012, 12:48:41 AM
If you were alive before the drop, then you should be alive when we come back. A shard crash is different from a normal disconnect.  HOWEVER, should you have become a grease stain I'm sure Cypress will authorize some relief compensation. CEMA if you will, the Cypress Emergency Management Association.
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Bronwyn on October 09, 2012, 12:53:25 AM
The CEMA  hehe I love that.. I was alive when it went down but didn't have all my stuff off my body when it crashed.  Is that bad?
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Aislinn on October 09, 2012, 12:55:37 AM
oh Groovy! so it was a crash and we will go back to the last save?
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Festus on October 09, 2012, 12:56:50 AM
what drop?? Despise?? Dang im sure i missed something good.  Well maybe in the morning ill get to check it out.

Crash will set us back to last worldsave yes..... which means my work on the spawners will be undone >.<

Ok, I have a small update. I just spoke with Cypress who had sent word to the host about the situation. Cypress is currently working to get the shard back up for us now.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Do you know how cruel it is to make someone adicted then take away the only thing that helps?  Any news yet?
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Lucian Darkfire on October 09, 2012, 12:25:15 PM
Still down here 8:25 EST.
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Aislinn on October 09, 2012, 03:15:30 PM
      I love this game. It is wonderful to hear so many others love it too. It being down for a few hours or a day lets us all know how much we have in common.
           Have a wonderful day today, Sylvan.

Shard host here making contact from my vacation. Had to drive 20 miles to get a data signal on my phone.
Looked into the problem last night when Cypress got ahold of me. Seems like there was a random power drop/loss than cycled the server. When it came back up one of the hard drives reported as having failed. This normally isn't a problem because I have daily backups of the entire server and the saves. However, last night when I was freezing my shebs off trying to remote in via my phone the computer failed to boot back into windows during a restart.

Seeing as I am ~450 miles away there isn't much I can do from here. I am going to see if i can convince a friend to drive 150 miles to my place and physically restart the computer. Barring that I will try and see if i can get my landlord to do it.

This isn't really good news I have, but at least it is an update for you guys. I swear this server knows when I leave for a trip because it has picked those times to have a real problem four times in a row. This is ridiculous....

Sorry guys and We are all working on getting this all back up for you guys.

That sucks, but it's nobody's fault. Thanks for trying from so far away.

If it helps, I'm game to chip in to pay for your friend's gas and/or a beer ;)

your computer sounds like my kids . the moment i get busy doing something, thats the moment they want my attention.
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Bronwyn on October 09, 2012, 04:31:41 PM
Sounds like my luck!  Enjoy your vacation, I'm sure they are few and far between.  In the mean time us Sylvan Heart fans will try to maintain our sanity.

Right now that would be a broken heart lol
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Kent on October 09, 2012, 06:46:29 PM
a forest of hearts ?  how would I make that  ? maybe a tree with hearts for leaves ?  any ideas ??
Title: Re: Shard down
Post by: Jharnul on October 09, 2012, 07:20:31 PM
I always visualized SH as a big tree with its foliage shaped like a heart. With some red coloration from fall (we're in october after all ;)), I think this would look great.

Just an update, looks like it might not be up till the weekend or there abouts, but we're on it. It seems the computer has been put into hibernation so that we cannot get to it remotely.

Sorry about this, and hope to see you all soon,
