2038 Season - You've Got Crabs! (2/13)

I thought Fidel was a made up name.

We are delaying because I cannot make a mistake and upload anything to their servers while Fidel is working on cleaning out our databases.
I don't want to hit upload and mess up something that he is doing.

In 1 email he stated to wait till I hear from him before I continue.

It is not a website issue per say. I am not 100 % sure what the issue is and am just doing what I am told.

What I imagine Fidel looking like and doing right now.

There is only one Fidel.

Get em Wasted!!!

Get em Wasted!!!

When we run a sim, it has to upload the files to the server first and that is the same server that the website pulls from, so I am unable to upload anything at this time.

Again, as soon as I hear something, you will too.

I would like to personally thank the following teams for NOT voting for All-Stars on the OOTP OU website, it is much appreciated.

How am I supposed to use the results when we have over half the league that did not cast votes?
I said screw it and used the results anyways, but it is things like this that make me not want to waste my time and just let the game generate it and be done.

Chicago Windstorm
Cincinnati Titans
Dallas Texans
Detroit Gas Monkeys
Hillsboro Hops
Houston Alcoholics
Indianapolis Caucasians
Las Vegas Outlaws
Miami Vice
New England Spitters
Ohio Buckeyes
Orange County Ducks
Philadelphia Cheesesteaks
Richmond Greeks
San Diego Bucs
Sheltown Shockers
Toronto Aces
Winterfell Direwolves

I had no idea we were voting for all-stars and even less of an idea that we were using the website for it.

Same . . . its no one's fault but mine. Should have looked for the blue text.

We've always had an issue with a larger file size which is why he's bumped us up to his premium level of hosting in the past. With that said, there are some things that can be done to limit it, such as running that cleanup.bat file every off-season, after the season wrapup is done and before you rollover to the next day. I think you've been doing this. Beyond that, retiring the massive amount of FAs helps as well (limits data transferred each sim).

This is about all we can really do. OOTP itself has some issues with what it logs over time and how it fills/replaces data when loading. We have a very old league with a lot of history (compounded by how it was initially built). I spent a lot of time back in OOTP13 getting us on a good track, but it was inevitable that we'd run into some issues again at some point. Hopefully Fidel can do some work on his end to clean up the backend and we'll be good to go this weekend. Fidel does a really good job helping out when needed. If we had been hosting on our own server or a normal hosting service, this league probably wouldn't exist today. I learned a TON about OOTP from him.

@ AJ - Not sure if you were serious or misunderstood the issue... but the "website" that you see is also the frontend of where everything is hosted. While JD could possibly run a sim and not have it error out, it would be a huge problem if he has issues pulling the exports or doesn't get a complete clean file load. The safe play right now is to wait until the SQL DBs are cleaned up and the server is stable.

[DRWebs]

Does each owner have to run the bat cleanup file or just JD?

[nick]

just JD. A league I play in that I think Seeit told me about (pigskinempire), theyre getting to this point too. Were in 2084 and the servers are completely fucked. 1 time slot lags so bad. Gotta cut down on meaningless old files we dont need.

OOTP Commish - If I try to sim, the world will be destroyed if I push the Sim Button

Us OOTP Owneres - Sooo...should we put it to a vote?

Yes, I was acutely aware of that because it was in the email.

Sounds like a perfect time to restart!
