Another Test Round Posted By: Lefty2k59 at 19:42pm Greetings my fellow Online-Text Based-Space-War-Game Enthusiasts! Thank you to those who participated in last week's test round, you helped us find quite a few bugs in the code. The bugs should (hopefully) be fixed, but we're going to do another test round to be sure more problems will not arise. It's worth mentioning that the Rewards bug is still going to be a problem, but doesn't really matter in test rounds. Hope to see everyone again for the next test round, the details are as follows: Signup starts: Thursday 10th May 18:00 (GMT) Ticks start: Friday 11th May 18:00 (GMT) Tick Speed: 1 minute Newbie mode: 48 ticks Alliance setup: Sector alliances (2 per alliance) Private spots: 0 Ship limit: 15 And remember kids, "The Afty says Moo".

And we're back, with 30% more beef! Posted By: Lefty2k59 at 21:12pm I bet you're glad you check this site for updates every day now, aren't you? One thing to mention before we get the rounds rolling again. In case you have not heard, or seen on Facebook (why aren't you following us on Facebook? http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Star-Fury/203 894076310053 ), there's been a bit of a change at the helm here. Aftermath and Systems are going to be focusing on another project, so they will not be running the rounds any longer. They will still be around and still be admins, but responsibility for the rounds is now on......wait for it......Haldir. Yes the man you all respect,love,worship, tolerate is now running the rounds. But fear not, for I won't be changing much in terms of the game. Now that we got that out of the way, down to business. We're going to start things off with a test round, just to make sure everything is good to run. Signup for the round will start tomorrow, May 4th at 16:00 on Sol, with Ticks starting at Saturday May 5th at 16:00. Full details as follows: Signup starts: Friday 4th May 16:00 (GMT) Ticks start: Saturday 5th May 16:00 (GMT) Tick Speed: 1 minute Newbie mode: 48 ticks Alliance setup: Sector alliances (2 per alliance) Private spots: 0 Ship limit: 15 Hope to see everyone back and if all goes well, I'll be starting regular rounds on Sol and Protheus shortly after the test round. -Haldir Oct

Wheee Posted By: Systems_Commonwealth at 13:49pm Rounds are back up....but since you're all inactive gits it's automatically deleted you all! (Hah!) For Protheus we'll restore back to Signups later this evening and Sol to the same time, until then consider this testing! See if you can break the current rounds. If you do, let me know and you'll win a cookie. Sep

Well, That was an eventful month Posted By: Systems_Commonwealth at 14:52pm All sorts of things have been happening here for the past few weeks! It's been crazy! First off, please accept our apologies for the downtime. It was absolutely necessary. So what's been happening? To surmise: we've had hackers, ISP failures, Tornados (not literally) and interference from real life (Isn't that always a pain!) I won’t go into too much detail but the long and the squirrely of it is we’ve had to do a massive security overhaul, not only on the code itself but also on the server (just in case) the password hashing which we mentioned previously in an email and our monitoring of all of the previous. We have all been working hard to try and achieve this and I know some of you are peeved to have had to wait, I know this sucks but it has sucked for us more The good news is we’re almost there, we still have a lot of testing to do and a little more tweaking of the system but we’re close. We aim to be back on Monday 3rd October, a date we shouldn’t have issue keeping this time. We will discuss a little bit later times and exactly what we’ll plan to do with the current rounds, once we know we’ll let you know. Cheerio, Pip Pip and all that guff Star Fury Admin Team Sep
