Today's Downtime
Forums › General Discussion › Today's Downtime-
Hey everyone,
Starting around 2:50pm (2150 GMT), we began receiving a high volume of traffic from a number of IP addresses which appeared to be running scripts targeting the Turf Wars app and website. Despite our and our ISP's best efforts to mitigate it, we were forced to switch the site and app to maintenance mode to reduce the effect of the attack on our infrastructure. After an examination of the attack, it appears to have been a denial-of-service attack, and no access was gained to our servers or our users' account information.Please accept my apologies for the downtime, we are working on improving our tools to defend against attacks like these, and hope to prevent or reduce their effect in the future.

Some asshat script kiddie was probably pissed because FRΞΞ☠ΜΛSΟΠ capped one of his turfs, and launched an attack. If nick matches the IP to a player, let us know who, give them free turfs, and let us cap them off the planet.
Oh. On another note, I'm retiring, but I'm still going to play.

We'll miss you Swamp, and I'm glad youre sticking around.😜

No worries thanks nick!

I don't think capping him the person or banning will stop him from launching a DoS against the game.

I'd agree with you about Mason except that none of the players I've seen him go after seem to be able to figure out how to play TW. I don't think they could pull of something more complicated.Some asshat script kiddie was probably pissed because FRΞΞ☠ΜΛSΟΠ capped one of his turfs, and launched an attack.

There's been several players that I know of that have threatened to oust the app and the websites, but only a single one ever spoke of hitting it through multiple addresses and crashing through the system.... From a conversation I had with te individual, his word choice and knowledge of the tech brought me to think he at least knew someone who could do it.
Untimely coincidence I'm sure, since we haven't seen him in a number of days...

Every player I have ever gone after has told me that they are a genius and will stop it nothing to end my game and destroy the TW community with their super mental powers.

Wasn't it Protective Daddy on GS who was posting about hacking into Turf Wars?
