Honestly, it was a rotten mistake on my part. When I moved all of my games to the new server, I created them all again from scratch. Unfortunately, I missed one critical setting on the Sub-zero game and allowed unlimited deaths. So the game got pwned quickly by people who caught my error. I felt like a complete tool, and hopefully those who got wiped out can accept my sincere apologies.

Sysops are certainly not perfect, and I know we all do the best job we can. I mean, why even take the time and expense to build and run a server if not to try and give the players a good experience?

I try hard to give players a fun and enjoyable server to play on. Once again, I apologize for such a rookie mistake.

laff, one simple mistake has cost me plenty of times and I will probably continue to make them in every script I write. The thread I started on "The moment you realize" or something like that has a few of those wonderful moments...

The mistake on no death dealy in the SZ was in the original edit I believe - we just miss catching it sometimes.

No hard feelings Rival... you have a great site and i enjoy playing there... the point of my comment wasn't your mistake...but the way people play now... We observed the truce and has soon as it was up we kill all players... thats not the way my corp plays... we would rather take a team with 10 level 6's than kill the guy that just started that has a level 3 ... My question was do you enjoy rebanging games every 4 days ? I understand the game is tradewar not tradehugs... but why do we kill everyone as soon as we can...

if i can make a suggestion... how about some time limits on your games... 20k turns and 4 hours or unlimted turns and 2 hrs... then guys can sit on pdrop... just a suggestion take it for what its worth...
