So, since my last competition was pretty much a discussion, I'll now close that and move over to this general colony discussion (the others are all specific)
TALK ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED TO COLONY (and beef burgers)
Krin, we're going to need help. If you are willing to bring this dead game back. The colony anti-hacking system is failing. It is now accusing innocent players of hacking and desyncing them like when it first came out, and i believe to my knowledge, that there are room failures as well. The rooms are kicking people repeatedly.
I saw this thread, and decided to play again. This is the first time I've played Colony in ages. And I'm surprised how many times you see 'This user has been desynchronized for cheating'. I'm also surprised how many hackers there are. There used to be one or two, but now there are dozens.
I wonder: I haven't played for long, and I've beaten multiple old users 83 games in a row is good for someone who hasn't played in ages).
If you are willing to bring this dead game back.
I do believe that many users leave because it isn't on the front page anymore. If it were...
I believe it's because the version was rolled back to 2.3 somehow accidentally. On Monday we'll bring it up to date again.
We're also planning some final updates, to add new content as we begin using the SmartFox system. I'll be using SmartFox for all future multiplayer games and so I'm going test the water soon with a Colony update
Wow! Another Krin activity sign. Either he's really active or has to calm down the users.

So in other words, you will update Colony a few times now, an then it will be left alone? And I just checked the site of SmartFox, and it seems pretty good. Does it mean that more users will get on and the servers more powerful? Or just the same, different provider?
The reason for the desynching and such is that its versoin 2.3 right now. If you play at another site its the current version, so that is a way to get around it till he finishes updating. Also, the 2 versions seem to be unable to see each other on servers, so that's why there dont seem to be as many on, and you will have times where you cant get on bc server is full, yet when you actually get on you'll only see like 8 ppl on, since the rest are on the other version.
