That's because I just ran the turn. :D


Korexus.

No problem with manually running the turn except that for some reason Bryk was not listed as M-1 although he had no valid orders entered.

Must check to see if the code recognises a blank sheet ie all orders [00][00] etc

Gaz, are you sure that Bryk had not sent in orders?

Maybe they got lost because of the recent "problem"?

PS: Thanks for running the turn again.

Gaz, when I say manually running the turn, I mean running the script which the server cronjob performs once per hour. This script checks for running games which are due to run and runs them. Since you paused the Omega test, it should not be affected.

Xarfei, it is possible that some people entered orders while still accessing the old server, but after the switch over. These orders will not exist on the new server so GMs should be careful. - Players should also be careful as they can check to see if their orders are there themselves.

Gaz, A blank set of orders in the database does count as a set of orders for the M-1 check.

On the "old" server Bryk went M-1 when turn 5 ran.

The only difference now on the current "new" server is that allthough his orders were apparantly blank he is not listed as M-1.

Actually ... I mis-calculated the deadline time and got to entering my orders late. However, the game page showed the game as overdue, but still not having run the new turn -- so I entered my orders.

My guess is that I must have been on the new server at the time when I entered my orders ... so there would have truly been missing on the old server, but in existence on the new server.

Well ... now that I look at my TR, none of the orders I submitted took ... so it ran through as if I did not submit any orders.

So, except for the missing M-1 designation, I guess we're where we should be, eh?
