Etc. - Brian @ 1:14 PM
I'm aware of the problems that continue to plague the site, and rest assured I'm doing everything I possibly can to fix them. Unfortunately, the process with our new host is extremely slow. It's less of a process and more of an exercise in frustration.

CTF Contest Deadline Reminder - Archimedes @ 4:54 PM
Just a little reminder to all those planning to submit an entry into the CTF Level Contest that you have a little less than 20 days left until the deadline, which is set for February 28. I have seen many excellent works showcased on the forums, so there is no doubt that this contest will be a great success. Keep up the good work!
Editor's Corner - Brian @ 5:20 AM
The Editor's Corner appears to be working again. If you have any problems, please send me an email with information on exactly what the problem is.
Hosted Sites, Email, Etc. - Brian @ 5:18 AM
All the accounts for our hosted sites have been set up, so the owners of said sites should have them up and running soon. As far as I know, all our personal email addresses are also working, however, there is still no staff list. You can, however, start emailing us levels again! We're aware of a problem affecting some users trying to download levels, and we're working on it. We should have a work around in place soon.

Updates from Blaumph.com - Hebedee @ 4:30 PM
oSiRiS from Blaumph.com Sends Word that the site has changed its contest deadline to March 1. He would also like to note that Blaumph.com has changed servers a number of times, and now is a lot faster.
For more info on the Blaumph.com Contest, click here.
EC - Brian @ 6:35 AM
The images portion of the EC is apparently not working. I will fix it this afternoon.
Reviews - Brian @ 4:26 AM
The review section allows you to read reviews and comments, but it currently doesn't allow you to post new comments. This issue will be addressed shortly.
Links Page Purged - Brian @ 3:24 AM
With the move, I have intentionally purged the links section. This is because a ton of them were outdated. If you have a favorite Jedi Knight, MotS, or Star Wars page, please feel free to visit our links section and add it.
Various Email Addresses Not Working - Brian @ 3:08 AM
Just so you know, the vast majority of @massassi.net email addresses are not currently working. We're still waiting on the techs to set them up. In the meantime, please either hold onto your news/files until everything is back up and running, or if it's very, very urgent, email me directly.
Hosted Sites - Brian @ 1:33 AM
Our remaining hosted sites are currently down. They will be back online as soon as eUniverse sets up the accounts. Command Chamber is currently waiting on MySQL access, which will hopefully also be taken care of soon.
Back Online... - Brian @ 12:03 AM
Well, our host finally got everything set up, so now I can begin brining the various sections of the site online. I'm putting this page back online so you can access the resources that are in fact working, but please don't be surprised if you get errors on the dynamic areas of the site (levels, 3dos, mats, EC, etc.). I am currently working on these sections, and I hope to have them up and running soon.

State of the Site - Brian @ 2:38 AM
Alright, due to the fact that all the information provided below can be confusing, I'm going to basically break down everything that's happening with this site.

First of all, we are leaving UGO. Frankly, UGO has broken their contract, which almost put Massassi out of business. So, we have joined a new network, eUniverse. This move means a lot of things for this site, and I will outline them below.

  1. The "Massassi Network" in its current form is disbanding. If you're not familiar with the Massassi Network, I'll give you a bit of history. Due to the success of Massassi, we decided to expand into other games and types of sites. This included Indy's Inferno (Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine [PC game] fan site), Watto's Junkyard (general Star Wars news and information), Shadar Logoth (Wheel of Time [PC game] fan site), Vampire Central (Vampire the Masquerade [PC game] fan site), and FC Outpost (Force Commander [PC game] fan site). Out of all our sites, the only ones that I am keeping is The Massassi Temple itself. Watto's Junkyard has been given to new ownership, and thus, is not part of our network anymore. The rest are going to disappear off the internet.
  2. New Server. The remaining sites (Massassi and it's directly hosted sites) are moving to a new server. I've been talking about this for the past few days. The new server is provided by the fine folks at eUniverse. With the new server, there will be some changes you should be aware of.
    • SWFiles.net SWFiles.net, the domain that we use to house our files, will probably be moving to anonymous FTP.
    • Hosting Short of our currently hosted sites and forums, we will no longer be directly hosting sites. The few exceptions to this rule will be sites that are hand picked by our staff and personally offered hosting. Frankly, this has only happened once or twice in the past, so don't count on it. To be honest, we have neither the staff nor the desire to support a full fledged hosting operation. There are plenty of JK sites out there that do host sites and provide excellent service. I strongly suggest you support sites like Jedi Nights, which have been providing service for longer than Massassi has been around.
    • Free Email As you probably know, we provide free web-based email through http://mail.massassi.com. We will continue to provide this service, but there may be interruptions in service during the domain transfer. We apologize for any inconvenience.
  3. New Network. With our joining eUniverse, there will be some changes to the way things look and act around here. First of all, the ads will be different, and you will no longer see the "UGO" button everywhere. Second, we will now have an ad on the bottom of some pages that is designed to spread traffic throughout the network. Third, we will have a small "eUniverse" branding box somewhere towards the top of the site. This box will advertise related eUniverse sites (a lot of which are really great sites). Finally, there may be a popup ad now and again. I understand that this is an annoyance, but quite frankly, it was either this or shut the site down. The popup won't display more than once per day per user.
  4. Hosted Sites. The current hosted sites (Command Chamber, Millennium, Have Lightsaber, Will Travel, and Rbots) are currently being moved to the new server. It is very possible that they will experience some down time while accounts get set up and services get installed. Please bear with us. HelpMe is noticeably absent from that list. This is because I have not been able to contact Mark728 - so if you're reading this, Mark728, please send me an email.
    That's about it. If you have any questions, honestly I am very busy at this point in time, but you can try emailing the staff, and perhaps they can help. I would strongly recommend holding off sending levels or other files until the transfer is complete. Thanks once again for your patience.
Watto's Junkyard - Brian @ 2:14 AM
One of our psuedo-network sites, Watto's Junkyard, has moved to a new server, and is temporarily accessible via it's IP address: http://209.15.36.197/.
Forums - Brian @ 2:12 AM
Here is the official word on the forums. I am going to try to get a temporary IP address that we can use to access them. If this doesn't work, the forums will be down until the domain transfer propogates (generally 2-3 days). The forums have been transferred to the new server, they're just not accessible at this point. I will post more information as I get it.
More on the Server - Brian @ 2:10 AM
Alright, the files have been moved, and the DNS transfer has been initiated. There are a few problems, however. MySQL, the database management system we use to drive the backend of our site, has not been set up on the new server. We are simply waiting for this to happen, and the latest word is "soon." So, when you get there, many of the dynamic sections of the site will not be working until MySQL is set up correctly. We are aware of this problem, and are doing everything we can to fix it.

I would also like to mention that during this move, Code Alliance has chosen to part ways. I wish the best to Stealth and the rest of the Code Alliance - without them, Massassi wouldn't exist. Period. Of course, we will still cover their news and promote their site - they are the backbone of Jedi Knight and MotS editing.
