Title: Maintenance - The Big 1.8 Update / Attempt #1
Post by: Foob on 2 Jun 2015, 13:43:28
Hi guys,

Noobstown is going into maintenance as of 2pm BST and is expected to be down for the majority of the day/evening as we upgrade to 1.8. Please note, this is a large update and things may go wrong, in the case of this we may well fall back to 1.7.10 to avoid long delays to your playtime. If all goes well, Noobstown will be 1.8 including as many of the features that came with the update as possible.


WARNING:

Name changing will still be blocked after we go into 1.8, we still have a couple of tweaks here and there with our plugins to make the magic happen for name changing, so please continue to be patient regarding this and we will continue to work towards supporting this.


Changes:

If the update is successful there will be a number of changes and new additions to the server, as pre-planned for 1.8. Further information on these changes will be released with the 1.8 update post.

I'm glad to hear this is all coming together so quickly, you guys must have been working non-stop for all this to have come around so swiftly! Even if it's not successful this time, it's a huge leap in the right direction and I love it!

Can't wait to hear and see the outcome! Thanks again for all the hardwork everyone's put in!

My experience has been a terrible one, the issues started surfacing a week or so after what appeared to be a successful upgrade. Mainly caused by the plugin (spigot running native hasn't been an issue).

You guys are braver than me! Best of luck. That said, when it runs smooth, it runs smooth enough.

Well, if this attempt does not work for some reason, I am sure you guys will figure out a way to make it work eventually. You always do. I am patient. So here's hoping attempt #1 works on the first go around and everything runs smoothly. I cant wait to see what is in store for Noobstown. Thanks so much for all you guys do. You are the best.  :)

*Foob is 1 click away from turning the server to 1.8* "Its time", says Foob confidently. He glances over at Melonworth,
the melon lord nods."Lawrence you ready", Foob asks "Yup",Lawrence replies."All systems ready" Foob says, confidence clear in his voice."5 4 3 2 1", Foob clicks the mouse. Computer explodes. Foob faceplalms the desk so hard it breaks, Melonworth grabs the nearest melon and cradles it. Lawrence stares into a wall."Okay who's up for attempt 2?".



Good luck guys ;)
