I think you're exaggerating, but yes, 'twas I. And I'm not playing now, I'm just trolling the forums.

Actually, 3 crashes. 4 if you count one long ago by now, but there haven't been more than that.

There's an annoying memory corruption bug in the server right now, which I'm trying to hunt down (unsuccessfully so far, though). It was the cause of the first crash (the first two if you count 4 crashes), which had a roll-back because the debugger crashed on me while trying to save the data. When the server was down anyway, I added some new code that I wanted to try, and it had a slight bug that caused the second crash (which was roll-back free), and a more serious bug that caused the third crash that I'm trying to rescue right now.

Hopefully, there won't be anymore after that. :)

SERIOUSLY? The game's crashed again?! This is the only game that's been keeping me occupied for the past 3 days and I really don't like the crashing. :(

As are most of us who were playing before the crash. :P But judging by your post it seems you were done with this if they couldn't recover the lost data which they cannot.

Well, I think I managed to avoid any rollbacks on that last crash, except for 4 or so houses that I had to free up to get some memory back. I hope nothing had changed in them.
