PoLiX

RSS feed would be quick and simple... I've been toying with the SSO twitter a bit trying to see how I could feed into it. I did find I could post to it from Trillian so did a test with that I haven't deleted yet. But dunno yet.

The Y2K10 bug has been officially squashed by PriitK, and SSCU/SSCX were updated a little over a week ago with no issues. He has now sent us the new subgame for release. To download, click here and then click download file. Much thanks to Priit for fixing this bug, and the others for making the temporary fixes they did to help out. (Note: Version is still 1.34.14b, but the minor bug will be fixed)

off to spam with this one....

Least hits, no, just the beginning of the drop. And actually I found it odd too, but just means less people were posting, but posting more.

Just some basic stats people sometimes find interesting... Hits, Views, and Topic Views rounded for ratios. I have Hits/Views and Hits/Topic Views goals I like to see SSF Achieve, and round numbers make the ratios cleaner. Beat goal of 1:50 Views:Hits (1:45), but barely above goal of 1:75 Topic Views:Hits (1:78). Taking into account 8,750,000 hits were bots, not a bad year. Not our greatest though as we fell below the 2,000,000hit/month mark in September. But still above 50,000 views/month.

Real players. Want this legit. Thinking of using an old friend's modified SVS+EG sets. If he still has them.

D1st0rt is up? Looking at file edit dates, I didn't thinky you were even using Maverick.sscentral.com anymore so moved it to: http://history.subspaceonline.com/maverick/

For years we have made lame advertisement videos, minor attempts at greatness, but none have ever captured SubSpace itself. I was laying in bed last night, had been working on a video with a friend of mine helping him with some stuff for school, and was still thinking bout ideas for it. Had the music channel on tv and Breaking Benjamin's Blow Me Away came on. Reminded me of the old SS Video I was working on like my x-mas video I did a few years ago. I was thinkin bout the ss intro, and hundreds of ships fighting, etc. The downside to that video, though awesome, its 3D... we're 2d... Then the idea struck me... What if we got 100+ people in 1 zone, in 1 arena, some basic settings, simple map, and just had them dogfighting it out. Yes, a very hard feat... unless TW is down to help. In that, we have atleast 100 players already in there, and it is just bringing more in from the rest of SS. I dunno. Just an idea... and if people are willing to go for it and help, I think with some simple video editing, music, and the right graphics, we could really make something worth... showing regularly. Again, just a late night idea I thought I'd share.

I have to say so far I like google analytics... it doesn't seem to record page views from Bots that die, nor looking at it bots period. Compared its stats to server ones, and found the difference between the 2 was normally about equal to the # of visits and views bots had made. Not always which still has me confused on 1 day there is like a 200 visitors difference, but typically seems to be the normal. Also doesn't record everytime someone refreshes a topic and crap, so instead of 1,500,000+ hits, shows the real amount.

Wow, for someone who tries to talk like a vet, you seem to lack knowledge of when those 2 zones you discussed popped up... Extreme Games, or Rompball as it was formally called, has been around since '97. And Trench Wars and Trench Wars Dark were having their big fight while VIE was still in charge. Quite a few other player made zones are still around from the days of Jeff and team also. So go back to your SVS elitist group and try again, thanks. On a side note: I love doing ?userinfo on some of these SVS "vets" who talk crap and find out that "I've used this alias since I started in 98" was really 2003-2005

I was recently notified by Ghost Ship that PriitK has updated all the SSCU/SSCX zones he hosts with a fixed subgame, and that the fixed version should be on its way to his e-mail. Will keep you guys updated on when it is released.

L.C. requests SSC from the council. E-mails either myself or another council member, we forward it on and vote. Pretty much states information on his server, who the admins are, and what zones he hosts. The council decides from there. Guidelines should hopefully be out soon. They are being pulled back for more modifications before they are voted on again. They passed but was still some work needed.

Cycad from SSCU Extreme Games has modified his version of Subgame to also fix the "Y2K10" log bug. Amongst its many other features, his hacked subgame allows plugins to be coded just like ASSS modules. An example fix he has added is chat 8 working for zone staff. So if you are curious to try out something other than ASSS, or really don't want to try and make ASSS work well on windows, Cycad's subgame is a great option to try out. Cycad's Website

True. BlueT needs to submit an app to SSC for SSC approval.

It's funny after how many times I've mentioned it people still think we're not working on anything. Figured it'd be pretty public by how many are involved/been asked. And noone looks to Priit as a leader of this game. Ghost Ship is who I always goto and who is allowing us to run this project. Priit is semi-awake right now, and if word got out encryption was broke, he would fix it. He's changed the cont encryption slightly with almost every version from what I remember Snrrrub saying. And since the reason we're currently after him is for a subgame fix, it wouldn't be out of question for him to release a server fix at the same time if he found a client fix needed. There is a lot of support behind Dr Brain and his continuing dev with ASSS, and a lot of interest and support behind Bak- with Discretion. The billing server is still up in the air as a few different people are willing to code it, and 1 person who knows the commands inside and out says he is coding one. But where this all goes, we just wait and see. This project is only in its infancy. Continuum's basework started in 99, and was put into plan the same year by the council. And seeing as it wasn't released until 2001, I would say we have a lot of time to go, with a lot less information to work with. But this is all just an idea/plan. With Priit, you never know when he'll pop up with something or be willing to do something. All we can do is try.

You could get a government job. They use acronyms for EVERYTHING that is more than 1 word, haha. "Have your SAA contact your HSO with the HWF." Good times. Taught me a lot about programming, graphics, networking, coding, etc. Amongst a lot of other stuff.

Not to add a skin... to download anything from IPB's resources website.

I dunno yet... was downloading Windows 7 since my Eval Copy gonna begin doing its bs stuff soon, and the torrent was running @1.2mb/s killin my internet. So couldn't do anything, and was bored. Had larry make a graphic, but imho it looked like he either half assed it or did it drunk. So I decided to make it, and thought the idea was cool and the slogan was nice. So figured it'd be something catchy.

http://www.subspaceonline.com/index.php - Think the new Download image catches your eye... Also working on plans to launch a "Get Sucked In" advertising campaign.

$10 + $30 to renew our tech support license... which is bs that we have to have an active tech support license to download something we do ourselves, but meh.
