Subject: World of Tanks 2nd Anniversary Fracas - All Tiers [Update]
Link on message: #4199223
husband, on Apr 14 2013 - 18:13, said: It has happened before with a tournament due to server capacity
strain on one occasion human error ended a weekend special one day
short. However the timing and posting of dates, start times has
plagued clan wars with the north america event.
It seems that they do not have a test server for stress testing or doing a dry run.
It seems that since - just speculating on this..that if things go wrong during the event - the back up plans are hard to implement to customers satisfaction since it is the weekend and everyone went to a lot of effort to re-arrange schedules, since we can not swap out team members.
It is a high profile event with prizes, and the tournaments are evolving for the better I hope.
It takes many hours to coordinate and train a team to work together, commit time to participate. I wish the compensation was more.

lord_farquad: weekend specials are not related to tournaments. But yes one of our
events suffered extreme lag on the initial battles due to server
strain. This was primarily due to the fact that we had never run an
event so large, and were unaware that it would be an
issue. Otherwise.... your assessment is very accurate.
There are a lot of moving pieces, and we try to find the best
solution for the majority. Unfortunately with a situation like
this, involving this many people, no matter the solution, someone
will be at an inconvenience.

previous events, issues are quite rare, unfortunately those tend to
be the ones that are remembered, but the vast majority of our
tournaments go off without incident.

everyone who was accepted into the original event (regardless of
participation, however this does not apply to teams who were denied
entry) 500 gold and 1 day of premium.
Once again, we do apologize for the inconvenience caused by technical issues with our tournament.

servers is mostly through people that have spread it around. I
don't have a topic like this on the EU/SEA forums.

Hypnotik: Hello all. I've been getting a decent bit of feedback lately, and
seen traffic increase quite a bit lately, so I just want to give an
update on what's going on with the timeline and address some
questions/issues brought to my attention.
Blank Maps
Recently there were a few maps that didn't have any colors filled in. This was caused by a database problem, which threw the rendering off. This has been corrected, and the maps were re-done with all the data intact. They should render correctly from here on, and I will keep an especially close eye on it the next few cycles.
Missing April 4
The API on the WoT site was changed without any notice, so the data is not available as normal. I'll try to go through it by hand within the next few days.
April Fools
I'm glad people enjoyed it. It has been replaced with the actual data now. I'll come up with a way of the joke map/data being available full time.
Server Transfer
It's taking a bit longer than I had hoped to get this done. Everything is set at the new server, but I also set some very lofty goals for myself (which I still intend on hitting) before I move it. I'd expect this within the next few weeks, and the only downtime you might experience would be due to DNS issues. I can't wait to get this on my new (stable!) server.
Thanks for the support everyone, it's been awesome to see my "this might be a cool project" idea catch on and reach thousands of people all over the world. As always, any questions/bugs/suggestions, feel free to post here or PM me.

CatStalker: You guys gotta give us a bit more credit than that. The list was
cleared and refreshed pretty regularly, and the winner responded in
chat within a few minutes for almost every giveaway.
I know it can be disappointing to not have your name drawn, but it doesn't mean that those who did win didn't deserve it.

CatStalker: I was able to message most winners today, but anyone who I
announced as a winner and didn't get a message should be hearing
from us by the end of the day monday.
Also, even if I had been able to message you today, the processing of the winners and submitting the list to the right department takes time (meaning nobody except the gold code winners will have thier prizes this weekend).

that would not allow us to determine what actually happened from
replays. This is the major reason we had to reschedule the event
for tomorrow.
