Server hardware problem

I bet all of my places are within the nuked areas

But seriously, would it be technically feasible to send a copy of the world's state to Jorb's computer once a week or so? The whole process seems pretty automatable.

*edit*
Oh, damn. Got a list of the nuked parts?

Hope its not my plot ;( I was in the middle of redesigning it.

I bet I lost my 80 meat quantity pigs. They're the main reason I still play without updates

Let me give some back ground, I have been playing for two or three weeks. I have a palisade that needs fixing that covers a whole massive island, and I was 3 ropes from my first mining hole. Also my village just got established yesterday. Leading into that... if we have to roll back so far why not go all the way with it? New people (not including me) might not be over eager to start AGAIN in a world where people in steel armor can come roll over them, I finally after a few steamrolls myself found a place where I could be established. For the sake of progress it seems advisable. It'd SUCK, don't get me wrong... but in a way that felt like no one was getting special treatment. Plus you get that new world thrill. That said, if we can keep the map up till the last few days (which still means redoing my mining hole lol) I am all for it.

Most people would lose a LOT more than you. And starting new world without new features sucks, either they commit to it so we don't get those new features for a looooong time, or they don't and it's pointless to play in a world that will be deleted in a matter of weeks.

Why would it be deleted in a matter of weeks? Loftar simply shelve some of the updates that might have been world six reboot worthy updates in favor of a MASSIVE world 7 update. I know a lot of people would lose more than I did. But new blood is equally important to old, and a lot of what would be lost would be cumulative rather than individual

Wiping without new content is pointless its just going to be another newbie rush for resources again, and the ppl who dont make it begging for a reset, ppl who lose the great wars or ppl who start late who cant get anything in life all want a reset again, repeat having to do everything from scratch again 10 times, you'll get the picture.

Newbie rat race sucks.

Yeah, fuck balancing the sieges, we can do that next decade

It isn't like world six is right around the corner, more like six months around the corner after Salem is released. Which is fine, Salem is the money maker that puts the Haven bread on our table, but in the meantime if it looks like half the world is nuked all to hell or even part of it some people are majorly losing out anyway. Let me put it this way, if the RUA is completly screwed, and I get my land and everything right to the second I logged out I would still think it only fair to wipe and redo.
