-LOCKED - We're back up...
Posted on 2014-11-13 11:30:54
Hey all,

It's been a very long afternoon/evening/night for us. We had a huge glitch regarding the expiry of trades. Because of this, we have temporarily disabled trades expiring. We worked out that an extra 2,000,000 (million) SB and 5,000 GB had been glitched into the game, which potentially could have crashed the game's economy. After an hour or two of deliberating over the best course of action, we made the decision that we had to roll back to the first backup before the bug happened. That was the morning of the 12th November. We have fortunately been able to save all forum posts, in-game messages, modbox issues, and event progression.

Unfortunately we had to reset your SB, GB and event currencies to what they were when the game backed up on the 12th November. We have also reversed all trades that happened during that time, as well as any lionesses claimed, stats gained, and so on.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience of being down today for several hours, and for having to roll the game back almost two days. Hopefully you'll understand what kind of impact this could have had on the game if we'd let the extra money stay.

If you purchased GB between the 12th November and now, and they have not been restored to your account, please send me (Abbey, #1) a message with your PayPal Transaction or Receipt ID and I will retrieve them for you. They may not be restored instantly, but you should see them back on your account within 24 hours. (Please copy and paste the ID directly into the PM, it's much easier for me to use than a screenshot!)

Thank you for your absolute patience, and we hope that there are no further mishaps from now on. There will still be a Friday update as usual tomorrow, so we'll see you then!

'K looks like I got my lionesses fed and bred before you back up Lioden, so all I really need to do is play with my pride.

And yeah I lost all progress I did after that, but that was mainly just exploring, hunting and a few studdings, so no biggy. No biggy at all.
I've experienced worse "loss" when The Sims 3 crashes on me before I remember to save xP

Fan-flipping-tastic! I had all of my lioneses perfectly fine, fully fed and full moods. I had around 600 or so SB. I had at least 3 Okapi carcasses and 2 zebra that would have fed my pride for tomorrow and maybe the next day.

BUT! Now I have 2 lionesses ready to leave, I have to interact/feed ALL of them all over again, I have 1 ibex carcass that will barely feed my main lion, and I have 22 SB. I don't give a shit about glitches, to be honest, unless I can easily notice them, but yay for fixing it!

But having to re-set EVERYTHING is just a bit ridiculous. I worked hard to keep my lionesses from leaving, I had finaly gotten a 4% fertility preggers, but now I have to do my entire day from scratch, with fuk nothing.

This may sound a bit weird but I'm kinda glad of this rollback, it means I have a second chance to sex change my male cub that I forgot to do before XD
But I'm glad the bug was fixed :)

Thank you very much Lioden for all your hard work. Dealing with coding glitches is *the worst*.

Though I've lost a few items and lionesses due to this issue, I am very grateful for the hard work that you put in to restore this site.

Your efforts are greatly appreciated!

I'm glad you found & fixed such a majorly economy-breaking bug! You guys are the best staff & I love you for all your hard work!

I won't say I'm not sad about losing the stunning lioness I claimed while exploring - Prune with Onyx Siamese & Panther, PERFECT for my breeding project. Goodbye Wandering Grape, may some other deserving player find you & love you like I did.... ;_;

I REALLY hope we get at least one event day back or 6 Shaman quests at one day or like a piety refund day or whatnot, because I lost out on 9 piety points, that I got v.v...

This is extremly frustrating and I wish it would have been handled like the illegal money from the GMO Cows v_v ...

Thanks, though ...

I had 2000 SB and quite a few pretty lionesses, a lot of territory (and I was on level 2 :'D). But ey, having 2 million SB would be a nightmare
the power
the power
really tho we'd all be going insane

You guys really are amazing though, some staff don't even bother! I'm so glad that you fixed it, thank you so much!!

EDIT: Oh, I have plenty of stuff for the event that I don't need. I'll put it up on my branch or a trade or something ahaha

Good grief some people are taking a game rollback WAY too hard. *laughs* The only thing I'm really curious about is if we'll get an extra day on the event to account for the piety we lost? :)

Keep up the good work!

I'm quite impressed at how quickly this was fixed! ^^

And guys, with things like buying/selling stuff, I should think that you can just contact who you bought/sold things to and re-buy/sell them! Something can't be re-bought however, like hunting and such.

However, wouldn't it be better to rollback and you lose a few little things thank to keep a horrid bug around? ;3
