Last rumble

[Firethem]

This post is just so I can know what happened with the rumble. I went to the convoy server 1h30 before the said time to begin the rumble. Joked with console (monkey and someone else i don't remember) and had fun. Then, server reset to change map/kick non- =e=s.

Then, I try to log in, but it says need a password. Dang... Go on the forums, then finds it. I get back to the load screen, try to enter, but can't. I had 3 chances to log in, when people were dominated, but each time I entered the password, it didn't work.

So I just want to know why I couldn't go in, and how other regular people did it. I ain't griefing, just want to know what to do for the next one so I don't miss it. I know I'm not alone in that situation.

I thought the whole thing was really fun and a great series of games. I didn't get to play granary, but the dustbowl and warpath games were fun, esp dustbowl, which i found was pretty even (despite the fact that the advisors/council won and the regulars didn't). I think the only reason it became less even on warpath is that more and more advisors/council left. All in all, super fun and great teamwork all around. Best dustbowl game I've ever played. Congrats to everyone.

Firethem, they just had the password disabled for a cpl mins so they could fill up the advisors/council side. After that the password worked.

well, i tried after the server was fully loaded with people (32/32) and had the auto-retry on... but when I got in (the two times) the password didn't work

Yeah, that happened to me a cpl of times. I waited over half an hour to get in, but i thought it was worth it.

Firethem,
I believe they altered the password mid-game at some point (I experienced the same thing you did) in order to get another Advisor/Council in. Once they were in, it was set back to the original password. About 10 minutes after that I was able to get in with the original password. Unfortunately it is hit and miss to see who gets in. If I saw the stats correctly, the server was filled in less than 30 seconds once the standard password was put into effect. :O Hopefully you'll be able to get into the next one.
