Overwrites

Post by Beh »

Hi,

I have searched and found out that others had the same problem, but could not locate any cure other than "wait and resubmit"

I recently restarted taking census and uploading duty, with a change though. I have an alliance account at my disposal as well. Which gives me the ability to post both factions on our PvP server.

I sadly saw that my later submission has overwritten my former one. Is there really no other way then
1- opening a new account
2- waiting in-between

I am quite sure you have much more experience with the past behavior of the userbase, but is the limit really necessary in terms of server load?

At least an external application can easily be coded to merge data of several files (different accounts in this case) and thus allowing one big file upload.

I'd be glad if I can have an at least semi-official answer on this one...

well people are kind of weary of .exes that could pose a security risk. But the timer is 15 min in between files, so shouldn't be a problem :)

I see your point...

Well I assume this request is not very frequent so that there will be a new optional upload page to allow multi file upload :)

15 min timer for teh win

thanks for the info
