We have had to roll back the database to midnight GMT. We're terribly sorry about this, it means that anything done on the website since then has been lost and cannot be recovered.
We were attempting to run some maintenance on the server in response to the problems earlier today and irreparably corrupted the database. This could only be fixed by a restore from backup.
Given the combined effect of the recent events, we will be extending all current subscriptions by 2 weeks.

Will this 2weeks free be automatic or will we have to apply for it?
Jack Basford medal 6098 CEO & CTO 12 years 170 days ago
It will be automatically applied.

At least the backups were good!
Thanks for the fix and communication guys.

Hi Manuel. Are you happy for me to restart your race on the hour? I can try to restore it from where it left off, but if you don't mind I'd rather restart it. Up to you. Thanks.

All active subscriptions have now been extended by two weeks.
Thanks for your patience.

I have only recieved one or two specific instructions from league hosts regarding rescheduling disrupted races. If you are a league host with races that have not completed properly, please could you contact me, ideally by PM, as soon as possible.
Unless I am told otherwise, I'll be postponing all races by 1 day for affected leagues.
I received 2 messages from people asking about the rescheduling, however because of the database corruption I don't know who these people were. The questions asked were: "Is it possible to run both races tonight or do they have to be 24h apart?" and "Can you add the race to the end of the schedule.".
The races can not run simultaneously. Just so long as one race finishes before the next one starts, with at least half an hour between them, there is no problem. We can not easily alter the calendar ordering, so no, we can not move the missed race to the end of the schedule.

My race still on pause?? And my subcription was not renew for the additional 2 weeks??? Please advice, Thanks.

Your subscription is expired, and we are not gifting new subscriptions to people as part of this process, it's an extension of currently active ones only, as it said.

Andrew just sent you a PM.
Marius thanks for the info. Great game never had a problem before that is why i didn't know where to go.
Keep up the good work.

I guess my current issue is a result of this rollback.
I have noticed that even though today's race is still not due to start for over 5 hours qualifying is already locked so I can't prepare.
Jack Basford medal 6098 CEO & CTO 12 years 169 days ago
It's yesterday's race postponed, so it will have used any preparation carried out before.

Didnt seem to get the extended 2 weeks on my account.
Admittedly Ive had to resub today for 2D but as far as i was aware I still had a active sub and its literally just ran out lastnight
