Right..

Long story short for you all a certain player exploited a flaw in the UW to set them off instantly one after another on started on GC/Normal 2 days later started on GC/RT and set off countless UW`s one after another.. only one took effect however thankfully

GC/RT And GC/Normal have been been restored as far as possible unfortunate it seems that ore, goods, food, And Fleet are not as easy to do as cash and minerals im afraid

GC/RT

120% to Credits

Minerals from before the UW restored and 30% added on. this took a lot of work on Stephens part so do be grateful everyone ^^

+10 BTCs

Server Effects (All Servers)

+20% Turn Regeneration

+30% Turn Storage

Lasts 1 week !

UW

Stephen has looked into the flaws in the UW itself and fixed several of them full testing In a safe setup that wont cause issues will be done in time and any further issues found fixed for good.

But as it stands UW should no longer be exploitable to do this ^^

Again everyone should thank Stephen for what he was able to do given the amount of time passed and fixing the UW

thanks BW and stephen for sorting what you could as fast as you could and also for trying to prevent this happening again.
S ShatterdDreams
it is sad indeed, it`s also sad that the record logs aren`t as detailed and have a time limit on them as well.... any one of these things could have helped.
S Seifer
yeah sadly everyone built fleets eh. sad that we cant freeze the game after the uw to properly restore everything

S ShatterdDreams
don`t stop there, go for 2,222,222,222 pr
B backoff
lol@SD, well, guess we need to work harder to get more $$ n climb higher next time...lol.....i guess i will challenge to spam to 888,888,888 pr next time...lol....then just sit there n wait to destroy uw..
S ShatterdDreams
you`re not the only one`s to burn over 500 bil building a fleet :( but sadly nothing can be done especially when everyone takes it upon themselves to build, if no one would have touched their fleets then they probably could have been restored. but oh well at least we got something.
B backoff
i wasted 500b to climb up n ready for any potential uw...n yet now, i get nothing but burned all my $$, i guess not only kraven feel sad..

there is no "lucky" player who got overly compensate.. all empire on gcrt is overly compensate. There is 120%gain on credits and 130%gain on mineral for ALL empire. which mean is negate the damage by the uw and around 20% bonus. The only things that cant be restore is fleet, ore and food. But compare to what had be done by the uw, badwolf and stephen have done a nice and speedy job in restoring the server as far as they can.

As a bottom feeder i`ll enjoy everyone coming out of DP at the same time, so this is great.

Thanks for the attempted recovery. I thought it strange that the events gave over 2 days notice and then the UW went off early before the stated deadline. However, it seems that I was overcompensated in most minerals(except terran metal) and credits, because I was online in the game for a time before the "fix" was made. My new accumalations of minerals and credits skewed the compensation "fix" for my empire. I should have only about 6 trillion credits and 300,000 units in each mineral, considering what I had before the UW and what I got afterwards.

I don`t really play my account enough for the extra minerals and credits to matter; play only enough to prevent account cancellation, about 1 day in two or three weeks. However, some of these more active empires might use their improper gains to unfairly advantage themselves. It might be too hard to track what players really loss, because the "fix" was understandably delayed for a time after the UW and some players accumulated new stockpiles, which skewed the "fix" for them. I merely point out that active and "lucky" players will have been excessively compensated by the "fix" than players that could not (in VM) or did not login between the UW prematurely going off and the "fix" being run.
