I didn't lose anything either. I expected my maze to be down due to not refreshing it for a couple of days. What makes you think you had it wrong?

I was gone three days and my house was mostly gone, I did the math and it was about ten times as much decay as normal as best I could tell. If I got that wrong, then ... well, we'll see tomorrow. :)

If it had only been two days it was probably because the server was down for a full day in there.

Well, I made a mistake when I logged out in my bedroom. It's near the top of my house, but not AT the top and I can't open the door to look at the top without resetting the decay counter. So I can't tell for sure today if the decay is slower, but at least that floor of my house still has walls so that's a good sign.

I refreshed that maze twice in the last three days.

We killed many mans last night on the weekend vanilla pvp server. Shot them full of arrows as they attacked us with stones, Stalked them in the night and blew them apart with a shotguns, friendly fired because we were afraid of the dark. You know, Rust.

Then died a few times. Still very ahead on a Friday wiped 50 pop cap.

So it sounds like none of us are still playing much at all? Server bill is up on 3/7 and I'm happy to keep it another month if someone is using it (I did agree to two months when I started it). But if no one here is playing on it, I guess I should let it go.

I'm playing, but not enough to justify a server. Doesn't sound like there's much startup effort, could always just let it lapse and do it again another time.
It's not me, it's someone else.

That's what I was thinking. I'll save off the mod files tonight for potential future use.

And then, the last week on the server begins. Time for a little end-of-the-world madness.

Oh, you are? As I said I'm happy to keep it up another month since that's what I said I would do. Just let me know what you think.

Wipe it today with the new update. Change the title to match the wipe, and Catt, if you would be so kind try doing some advertising around today.

Once the wipe happens, I'll monitor the server, and make some events take place if we get some people on.

If we don't build a population by the 7th, let it go.

Thoughts?

Sure, that sounds good to me. I had no idea there was even an update, really. What's in it? Does it have enough goodies to make a come-back to the game worthwhile?

The only change I'd make to that plan would be adjusting the give-up date to the 6th. That would give us one last day to mess with everything for the hell of it. Air drops every 10 minutes, a completely messed up day/night cycle, junked cars littering the landscape, and whatever else we can think of to screw with. Just because. :)

Sounds very good.

The update details are in the Rust thread in the Games section. Or go to playrust.com.

I just tried to log in to check out the changes, and I'm not seeing our server. In fact, all the servers in my history are gone, and there's very few servers under Community or Modded. Not sure if you need to do anything to bring it up after the update? Will Oxide need an update too?

Damn the Man (no admin abuse) is a pretty good server tagline.

I'll be around if we do a wipe, our base on the pvp server isn't going to last forever. Let it be known that I'm at least third on the pk list 1) Catt 2) Cake 3) Me.

I still feel bad sometimes. Exactish quote from last night:

Me: "Well we killed this guy again, like the third time today, I'll leave his stuff..."

Cake: "No fuck that, dry loot and chop the body"

I was on it last night. Started a character, and in about 5 minutes I found some random dude sleeping, bashed in his head with a rock, and was suddenly equipped with weapons, ammo, and shitloads of resources.

Okay, it's done. Update applied and server is reset and renamed. I don't think Oxide is working yet with the new version, so I'll keep an eye out for an update to that.

I just can't get into that PK shit. Can't do it. To me, killing someone out harvesting resources who you don't know, and have no beef with is the digital equivalent of the Knockout game.

Maybe I'm a square, but I just find no excitement in randomly killing everyone I see. I've been that guy minding my own business and collecting resources only to get PKed. I've also been the other guy. I didn't enjoy either very much.

Also, awesome on the wipe. I'll get on it right now and start monitoring what's going on.

You'll just have to do it again.

Besides, with my house decayed out from under me, it was probably me you killed. So: revenge is mine!
