News and Announcements / Worlds back online
August 30, 2011, 02:10:30 PM
The game worlds lost connection to the login server last night, and due to some DNS issues, I could not turn the login server back on this morning. (DNS turns names like www.allgofree.org into IP address) However the issues appear to have resolved themselves so everything is now back online. :)

News and Announcements / Combat Triangle Open Beta
August 22, 2011, 04:39:36 AM
Update pack #13 1/2 has kind of been released! ;)



Many people have been commenting on many changes related to PKing, so we have decided to test drive an update live on only one of our worlds. What we have done is enabled full Combat Triangle code on World 3 only, which means that combat against both other places and Npcs changes drastically. Now we do not want to add this to the game if the players do not want it, so for now World 1 will remain the way that it is, and World 3 will be an open beta world for players to test this update on against Npcs in minigames like Camp, and on players in the Wilderness and FunPK. After you have tested this update out for yourself, you may vote on this page whether or not you would like this update to be applied to all the game worlds. Happy testing! 8)

News and Announcements / Recent Downtime
July 24, 2011, 01:43:02 AM
The website and the game were down from about 2:30 AM EST Saturday until 11 PM EST Saturday due to power problems at my house. The power line was struck by lightning and the wire fell down, and there was live wire burning and sparking in our lawn. After being repaired, the power was on for about an hour until the wire fell down again for no apparent reason, so they had to shut off the power again to fix it. But we have power now and everything is up and running. :)

New VPS!


I'm very pleased to announce that we have a new server to run World 1, so hopefully this will fix the lag problems that we have been recently having. We are also working on fixing memory leaks in the server to further improve performance. :)

News and Announcements / Short URL Problems
July 10, 2011, 03:08:39 AM
Due to the recent failure of the VPS that runs World 1, the shorter URL versions of our website that do not include www are now offline. This means that you must type www.allgofree.org and www.worldscapeblitz.com to access the site, as opposed to just allgofree.org or worldscapeblitz.com. We are aware of this problem and are trying to fix it as fast as possible so that everyone can access the site, no matter which URL they type in.

Thanks,
- Ryan

News and Announcements / World 1 Offline
April 02, 2011, 10:33:49 PM
World 1 is currently offline as the VPS (virtual private server) that it is running on has gone completely offline for some reason. I have submitted a support ticket to the company that runs the VPS:


In the meantime I'm attempting to put a World online from my house, although it may lag more due to not having such a fast internet connection.

- The Duel Arena has been added! It can be accessed with the new ::duel command! Stake safely. ;)

Due to a request by a few players, we have installed the same Wiki software that Wikipedia uses, and we now have a WorldScape Wiki! Of course there is currently no information in it, but we hope that people will start to contribute to it. It can be viewed by clicking the new link on the side of the homepage, or by clicking here.

News and Announcements / 403 Forbidden
March 10, 2011, 06:54:01 AM
Many of you have probably noticed that sometimes when you try and access the website, you get a 403 forbidden error for every single page on the site. This is due to the new server I bought off eBay crashing every few hours for no reason whatsoever. I am going to be able to get a full refund on the computer if the seller cannot help me fix this issue, but it looks like I may have to buy yet another computer. :'(

Last night around midnight, there was a large storm in my area and it caused my power to go out, which caused the website and login server to shut off. :'( This is kind of ironic since I just posted how we upgraded the servers and shouldn't experience any more crashes, but servers can't run without power! ::)

So hopefully my internet and power stay on so we do not experience this kind of issue again. :)

News and Announcements / Super-speed boost
February 27, 2011, 06:06:13 AM
I am extremely happy to report that we have resolved the issue where the main server running the database would crash. We have replaced all five of the older computers that ran various parts of the website and the game with two powerful Mac servers! This means that not only should the game and website have much better uptime, but the website and the login time for the game should be much faster. In fact, if you look at the bottom of the page where it says "Page create in xx seconds", we have jumped from being generated from ~0.7 seconds or over to 0.2 or even 0.1 seconds! 8)

So basically, enjoy the new speed from the new servers:
