New connection error:)

·2340 words·12 mins

Man must have crashed it good this time….most of the time I get a connection refused error when game crashes…..this time I’m getting ’no route to host’ :) whoever kicked the power cord, plug it back in!!

Resouh

WinSock error 10060: Connection timed out

every time. but the Life Info thing says everyone’s still online

nods, think that was the last data received from the game server before it crashed is why…..

We’ve had this error in the past. Usually it means the game is fine and chugging along without us. The physical connection to the server is hosed. If anyone has Brian or Rick on speed-dial, now would be a good time to get ahold of them. Most likely the only thing that can bring Sloth back is a call to the host provider.

Can any imms that are checking the boards give us an update or an idea how long we’re gonna be down/if the game is still running and the problem is w/ the provider/etc.

Resouh

sux

yeah ive been checking the server info applet….the current time on the website isnt the same as everywhere else….and the groups are still identical and the same people have been logged in….IMHO the mud is completely down and nobody is actually on it….just seems like the server is locked up…..

not sure but thats what the evidence seems to point out….

which as ole aaron says in one glorious word does indeed

SUX!

Since the site’s not hosted in the same location as Sloth (as far as I know), Sloth could still be running internallly as 12345 says, but if the site has no connection to the server then it would probably(?) continue to display the last collected data on live info.

The Mud doesnt seem to be currently running it just seems that the site isnt getting info from the game just like we cant. And the server seems to be completely down.

You realize of course that if there’s no route to the host, there’s no way for anyone to be able to tell if it’s still up or down. That’s like cutting to phone line to someone’s house and then trying to call to see if they’re home… it just won’t work. Sloth was up when the host became unreachable. Since no one has been able to connect since then, it’s difficult to believe that it would have crashed between now and then.

I just had a lil bird fly into my window….and he says they are physically Moving the server to a new location and that it may be up as soon as an hour or 2……

M

fo realz??!!

First of all little birds cant physically move servers, they need some type of force field or large machinery. Secondly Warriors cant talk to little birds, maybe this was just delusional tap tap tappings on the chamber door. Is there a way to cast ‘chronos’ +2 hours and get this over with.

Mike

I had a frog that had alleged server-moving skillz once, but then I hugged

him a little too hard and he peed a little blood from his eyes. The frog

was discreet though, very discreet.

So, how’s the army treatin’ ya?

It must have been a bullfrog, thats the only cold blooded creature I know that can run cat5. Im wondering if you ate him or just left him to die? Did you ever take him to a picture show?

It seems that the host is moving their server. There is no ETA on when the game machine will once again be accessible, a couple of hours possibly at best.

Once the game is accessible again, the address will be different.

As of this moment, the address wll be

mud.slothmud.org port 6101

if you use IPs the IP will be

209.139.208.64

Once again, there is no ETA on the completition of this move. Just hang in there.

Akasha

Fuck yeah I took him to a picture show, what am I, some sort of freak?

And it wasn’t a bullfrog, it was a yellow-bellied munnifrog, from the remote

jungles of Borneo. If you lick their back, it makes you feel like you’re

afloat in a lake of beef stew.

Us that use wintin.net and has the Connect how would we manually change that address to get it to connect to the new address. (Me being a new wintin.net user and never exp. this b4)

Maybe 2 birds carried it… 2 African swallows with a string held under the dorsal guiding feathers…

Actually, my personal theory is that Marvin tried logging into Sloth and it commited suicide.

ROFL ..brilliant imagery :twisted:

Very cute Mike and AA

The army is treating me Like a total fucking prince….Ive never been more happy its kinda freaky actually….im kinda waitting for that fattening me up for the kill thingy to hit….

I tell you what was so weird im sitting at work reading the new company SOP’s and a drill comes up and started telling me dirty jokes and shit…(with the round brown on) and not 5 minutes later asked me to fix his puter…..and then he actually said THANX….when i did……

creepy……

Im not sure if its cause im reclassing or what but this army exp is completely different from the last one…..

i had fun last time…but now im being treated like i shit tiffany cufflinks…..

A quick note to Dikus…easiest way to do that is to uninstall wintin.net and install wintin 95 version 1.8 – Feel free to blame Splork at any time for the inconvience.

In other news… PC files got ‘mishandled’ and as such… the pwipe nobody wanted just got re-introduced. In that train of thought, I’d like to be the first to welcome everyone to Sloth IV.

Course this could all be rubbish and hallucinational from licking that weird toad discussed earlier.

But, in fact I didn’t have access to the ‘real’ toad since I live here in North America and had to in fact, snag my pet’s plastic chewtoy and basically lick

it.

Anyone know if catnip is harmful to humans?

Would I reinstall it now or when sloth IV is up or is it up now? or can i just do it now?

Can install anytime… now would be good since you have time to readup on it and start tinkering…

Oh… can we get a chat port up like last time… spamming on website is lame..i wanna spam in real time.

:roll:

dear god a global wipe …..ugghhh…. wouldn’t even want to imagine that. But just incase ur not kidding, first dibs on autumnal;) lol

Resouh

Let’s not even get started on this one… Seriously, it’s been played to death. :roll:

As of this moment, the address wll be

mud.slothmud.org port 6101

if you use IPs the IP will be

209.139.208.64

[/quote:3od6u9vo]

It seems plain old slothmud.org 6101 is now directing to that new IP 209.139.208.64 ..so perhaps you don’t need the subdomain ‘mud.sloth…’ in front..

Hey Akasha, I’ve been meaning to ask for a while, and since we have all this downtime…Did you name your imm after the bands or something else? Just trying to fill the time :)

so in actuality mud. doesnt have to be there correct? the address is still gunna be slothmud. org or should i just set up a new connection with the address of mud.slothmud.org and keep the port at 6101 and name it Slothmud IV?

Well, I played Lestat before I immorted. I also had Akasha, so I immorted Akasha, and gave Lestat to my cousin. But the reference you are wanting is obvious :P Anne Rice’s Queen of the Damned.

figures the mud would belly flop during my one week of play time… so i went ahead and uninstalled wintin.net and installed wintin 95, should we just go ahead and load tintin++ :) it should be easy to load our old script files from wintin.net into wintin 95, yes?

surprised there aren’t more eddings names out there. anywho, just thought i’d pipe up.

anyone have any medical questions?

Hey Kheldar, have you found any medical uses for ‘cure light’ yet? If so how would you recommend putting this to use?…..Well Thanks in advance!

Nod, that was my original guess, but I just learned about two European bands both called Akasha and I thought it might be something more obscure than Ann Rice, either way its a fun name tho! :D

Actually, you can still refer to it as Sloth III or Sloth 3.99999999

If Weasel is getting access to mud now, he is no doubt cycling kobolds.

He should be put down.

:twisted:

yeah so i was on the wards last week and this guy presented with abdominal pain… really excruciating, and all of the sudden he hiccups and holy cow he is gone. well, this freaked out my whole team, including the attending physician. but not me. i just cast ‘detect disease’ and then cured it. no prob.

i wanna play sloth. wahhh.

see excruciating blow has yet again toppled the weak!

:twisted:

Gratz Kheldar Maybe we should clone you for all hospitals around :) ok Hades i will change the name to sloth 3.999 etc :p but that should work in theory correct?

Well 9:30 pm here may be off to bed just depends :) Mud gets back up by morning 8) have fun mudding. But maybe on in an hour or so just depends.

You would have to find someone more familiar with wintin.net and wintin 95.. myself, I have NO expereience with wintin.net.. and Splork being on the other extreme would probably grovel before you NOT to switch from wintin.net to wintin 95.. I will however give some examples since he is busy afk oh whatever he does when he’s not doing here…

type these for starters

#action {^You are hungry.}{get food bag;eat food} 1

ok the ^ symbol is known as an anchor.. You might know this so I will explain if u don’t..The second set of brackets is what action is taken when the 1st bracket goes into affect…the " ; " in the second bracket allows u to have several actions respond to the 1st bracket. The number 1 is allegedly how quick this action takes place.. I never seen a difference in the number used

#alias {wb}{cast ‘waterbreath’;!}

you should know about alias’s so this is pretty simple.. basically what action does only you trigger it instead of the game

#write

after u get some actions and alias’s set.. this will save for use later

as you play over time, you will add/edit many actions and alias’s.. this will save alot of headache

#read

used at the beginning of your game session.

You can also use highight and sounds to enhance important stuff that might be missed in spam or while ahem afk.. these I won’t go into cause I don’t support botting.

Ok, I do support botting but that’s besides the point.

:D

Well if everyone did get wiped, the first thing I will do is create a char named autolycos…..hmmm….and just think about all the fun I could have with that…

i.e. Autolycos gossips – ‘I have been so wrong these last few years and would like to appologize to all parties involved. And p.s. I love weaser.’

and then when done would offer char back to the real auto for 5 miiillllliiioooonnnn coins puts pinky finger up to mouth in best dr. evil impression

Resouh :)

or not..

First come first serve I say… if I get dibs on Autolycos, I’m gonna play as a pirate who terrorizes my fellow PC’s.. Hell I may even start a clan

wait a minute…

:o
