What the heck is wrong with gyruss??

Dogmeat · Post by **Dogmeat** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 5:15 am

Well today Malkia joined and he was dead. He says he double checked and had food & drink at his home for 28 days, then he went for a weekend play with some friends or something. Then he comes back and says he's dead?

And that's not all. The weirdest thing happened to me too. I played a while today, there were like 6 players there. I was real happy i was gonna produce the first Turbos and tune ups of gyruss, as I have been trying to build this fact for ages as there was no plastic around and today it was finished.

So i waited anxiously to get it pumping out, i talked to the players, hired a few. Then i went to my house, and went AFK for like 10 mins. I came back, food/drink bars were zeroed and my health was full. I went to wait in top of the factory, for like , 5 mins, then out of nowhere I exploded and it said RED HEALTH WARNING or something, even if my health was red?

And then... 2 mins later.. I DIED!!! EVERYTHING!!!!! MY 20 BUILDINGS, MY 4000s BANK ACCOUNT... my turbo factory

so i ask.. what the heck is wrong with Gyruss?? Leigon please can i have my stuff back.. Its not fair losing everything i've been building for weeks because of some stupid bug that hits random people for no reason?

see this crap never happens to the newbs its gotta hit us veteran players, im a blow toch as far as my head is concerned.

Check mine two, dog was nice enough to grab some of my buildings but that doesnt matter now, leig just get our stuff back and grant the Jehova Hunters their money back, i dont care for anything of money or inventory, just my buildings and my family., all my buildings are:

In between Imerial Mud, Mud City, and some other MuD Family town, all the buildings on the corner are mine, The Gas Station, The Tea shop, the butcher shop, my house, the oil/gas tank, and thats all i remember for now.

i kinda agree thier...
either newbs or people who don't know they shoulden't stock chems/explosives.
and its always the same people on different islands when it happens.

this bug has happened on zoric too.
and all the times it did they had no food/drinks in thier houses the night they mysteriously died, or they were on for several hours outside thier house before they mysteriously died, or were afk in and out of small alot while not in thier houses.

Um, I seem to remember having that happen to me once, in my house, with 28 days worth of food stocks. It is not always a mistake on the part ofthe player, not by a long way.

28 days in game time?, it's the time in brackets you need to look at, but im sure I dont need to tell you that....

Nope, 28 days of RL time - dig out the original thread, if you don't believe me. It went on for pages.
