Revision as of 12:58, 12 March 2019
Ever since the ability to respawn the Ender Dragon was added it has caused the server to crash for an unknown reason. The admins have spend a large amount of time trying to fix this but have never managed to get it to work. For now do NOT spawn the dragon.
The 'Great' Dragon Crash
Despite the server being taken down a many times already by this problem, unaware new players still made a big deal about the crash on March 11th, 2019 because it was the first time they experienced it themselves. Here you can read a timeline without any timezone attached for the event.
Timeline of Events
- ~12:05pm - The server crashes for the first time. DakkaDok is contacted through Discord.
- 12:17pm - The server momentarily goes back up. The players are relieved.
- 12:19pm - The server crashes again. Many people start gathering confused in the Discord server.
- 1:03pm - DakkaDok mentions seeing things related to the Ender Dragon in the server crash report.
- 1:41pm - Jokes about Struthio (aka the biggest lag machine in the server) start coming up on Discord.
- 3:36pm - The server comes back up.
- 4:48pm - The server crashes again after AntHand, who was in the End at the time of the first crash, joined. This makes it clear that the server was crashing when Anthand Loaded the Ender Dragon.
- 7:18pm - Our lord and savior MisterStrawman fixed the server to a collective sigh of relief. Anthand logs in again to no crash, confirming everything was back to normal.
In all, the whole thing lasted over 7 hours, during which a lot of discord hijinks happened.
Meanwhile
Other servers did not crash, so high IQ players such as Porkington just went there and didn't care about dragon stuff.
