Possible crash (ugh ...)

[gorboth]

The game froze on me about five minutes ago, and I have the bad feeling that there has been a crash. I've contacted Cotillion to see if this is true. Can others confirm whether this is their experience as well?

I doesn't work for me. Seems there is some kind of connection established but there is no text broadcasted.

[Hektor]

Yep. Connection established but no return of text for me as well.

[gorboth]

Heh ... back up now. I was working on some code for the Necromancer guild and ... well ... it almost crashed the game. Golly! Last time I did that was in, like, 1995. I didn't know I still had it in me ...

In his own words, Cotillion worked some *very* Black Magic to right the ship. Kudos to him. I'm going to go sit in a corner now.

Will it be a new spell for necromancers?
"cast kill donut" - connections of other players dropped for 5 minute.
Necromancer still has his connection active.
"cast resurrect donut" - everything backs to normal except for player who was killed by necros meanwhile

[gorboth]

Yeah, but it will remain just a wizard spell. So if you want to use it, you have to become a wizard and join the Necromancer's guild. But even then, the spell can *only* be used in pvp that is based on good solid roleplay, and any uses other than that will be reported to the playerarch who will ...

Oh, nevermind.

Ah. You're reintroducing the "LAG like it's the 90s-spell". Excellent!

Hah. Exactly. Or running to your friend's computer in the computer room to see if you survived, since he for some reason isn't lagging as much as you.
