Code: Select all
Greetings,
As some of you noticed, there was an unexpected Armageddon a
few hours ago. The reason for the crash is a quite unusual
one. What happened was that, after a bunch of jokes on
Discord about if it would be possible for a player to crash
the game, two players, for some absurd reason, decided it
would be a good idea to actually try to make it happen.
Their plan was to buy massive amounts of messengers (thousands),
and dropping them in the same room. After spending tons of money
on messengers they eventually did crash the game.
We will of course attempt to fix this loophole, so it will not be
possible to crash the game in this way again. I also apologize for
my own and Greneth's involvement in this, since we took part in
the Discord chat yesterday and joked about some sort of "Come and
try crash our game"-event as a promotional tool to draw in more
players. Obviously we were not serious, which I am sure everyone
in the chat also clearly understood. Not in a million years did I
think anyone would actually try to crash the game "for fun", but
clearly I was wrong...
If anyone lost any items due to this crash, please contact the
AoP team and/or me and we will try to restore anything lost.
And to the two of you who did this, it was a seriously lame
move, causing lots of extra work for us wizards, and messing
up the game for the other players who were playing at the time
of the crash, or indirectly suffered due to it.
