I tried to play zerok earlier today but right before i started my launchr and my friend's launcher started saying that we were disconnected. Are the servers down?

Yes. Likely cause is server migration.

Server migration is an unlikely cause (for many reasons).

My bet is on a linux VM crash (it happened before), and lack of planning/redundancy on the human side, which makes restarting the VM problematic...

Let's have an irc channel where we can all gather while the lobby is down. We can tell ghost stories until the storm is over.

Channel #zk

I am there now.

i can just guess: as site and lobby isn't reachable its very likely the VMware host crashed as it was last week. no, it wasn't a Linux vm crash last time, the VMware host crashed last time.

vmware host didn't directly crash, the vm itself seems to be crashed in a weird state:

not sure why this happened, seems the ovh provided esxi images are unstable :-|

vm state was powered on,

"esxcli vm process kill --type=hard --world-id=id"

fixed it...

Thanks for the info, abma.

We had tons of fun on Quakenet #zk during those hours! Next time the server is down, join it again and we can all keep in touch.
