Coliseum Reset to Main Screen

Forum Post | Bug Report Forums | By Xhaztol
We had an outage of our game server earlier -- while we backtrace our steps and try to figure out what took 'em down, I have brought both Fairgrounds and Coliseum back online. If possible, please try to keep these types of threads centralized to one major one (look for the one with the most posts, or for one with a [T] in front of the subject) so that we can avoid forum bloat.

Thanks, guys!

Thanks for bearing with us, folks! Looks like the game server might need a restart. Our programmers are both passed out from launch, but when they wake up I expect the games will be back online. Thank you for your patience during our somewhat rocky launch week.

What was their user name? I can check to see if they do exist. :-)

Stones can be dropped off monsters (and resold by players on the AH) or purchased on hte marketplace.

We require that all players be 13 and up in order to play Flight Rising.

I rechecked our terms of use and there is no mention of parental consent bypassing the age restriction.
Every Single Day?

Your dragons cannot die or run away, but they can starve. If you return from an extended break your account and all your dragons/items will be intact.

Your dragons will be hungry and mostly useless (starving dragons cannot breed, a starving clan has reduced gathering turns, and starving dragons cannot fight.) You'll want to top them off ASAP!


Edit: Ninja'd!
Forum Vistas and that Blue Bar
Jun 08, 2013, 06:27:46
Forum Post | Help Center | By Undel
The blue bar is how many consecutive days you've kept your dragons well-fed. Once it's full you begin receiving daily bonuses.

We would like to use vistas more in the future, particularly through achievements or challenges. :-)

Thanks for the report! We have a topic on this going here if you'd like to follow the progress: http://flightrising.com/main.php?board=bug&id=23008&p=mb

Thrage is currently recoding Shred, among other things. This is for a more stable coliseum. :-)
Site says to whitelist

But if AdBlock is completely disabled for the site? Or am I missing a feature of adblock and it's a PEBKAC problem?

Do you see ads some of the time? Or none of the time?

Forum Post | Bug Report Forums | By Undel
Yeah. THat's the background. The ad lays on top of it. If the ad is transparent or doesn't load, you see the background. The assumption is that if you're seeing the text all the time, then you don't have us whitelisted. (something we greatly appreciate! The revenue from ads allows us to make so much of our site browseable to guests.)
Colors question
Jun 08, 2013, 05:04:17
I don't know where the chart was moved, but If you want to see any particular color combination, we have a search feature that will let you sort by color. :)

By the way, the "not logged in" page still says that the game is in beta.
I know you folks are busy with the launch, but don't forget to change that at some point. ;)

Great catch! I altered this to be much more appropriate!
Glitchy Coliseum

Hello --

We're currently tracking information in this thread while Thrage performs optimization maintenance on the Coliseum. Thanks for the report.
Marketplace Stockless
Jun 08, 2013, 03:21:33
Forum Post | Help Center | By Xhaztol
The Marketplace runs on a script that often dumps and randomizes its stock. This happens at random intervals that not even we as admins can predict. This is to keep things exciting/random, as well as prevent sniping. Stick around long enough and your item will likely show up. :)

@Thrage is currently working on a solution to this -- he is getting very close to Coliseum stability, so we appreciate your patience while he works! You guys are awesome!

You can set your account to invisible from the settings. You will still see it from your lair, but others will not.

Hi, Ryuchanwings --

We can't even find her in our database by that name. Can you have her refresh the registration page and try again?

I'm sitting right next to my friend as she registered, and when she clicked the link in her confirmation e-mail to verify her account, it says that the username and confirmation code don't match. :/

I will need some more information in order to correct this. Have they tried to manually enter the values with copy+paste? Have them send an email to admin -at- flightrising.com from their registered email if they need me to verify the data.
