sounds like DNS issues, please read other posts concerning this, flush DNS, wait

I am looking into this.

DNS propagation can take due due to multiple levels of caching and bad ISP's not respecting TTL values. meaning: bad isp does bad things, meaning bad things. Try another browser maybe?

then its your upstream dns server and you need to wait a bit.

Yes, clear your DNS cache on your machine Windows can probably do ipconfig /flushdns

Not all DNS servers have updated the new information. For now you can probably access MD using the IP: 164.138.28.154

your browser has chached the loop. clear cache.

THE SERVER BROKE

protip: scroll down, see pigeon.

When you have existed before and after the game exists.

The backups failed

Writing a new backend and just devising it will take time, But the main pain is taking all of the scenes from the base drawing and recreating them in a format that is modular and therefore easy to use. This could be done by those with skills with adobe fireworks and similar but this requires the HTML5 backend to be written.

BFH is the best to comment on specific ways of raising money/players, but from discussions i have had with him and Mur the topsites MD is on is by far the best, easiest and cheapest way we have in getting more players to play. Without pouring a large amount of money into comparatively useless advertising.

Not very, you require flash to play MD for the most part, But removing flash is a mammoth task that could take 2-3 people at least half a year to do. The issue is that every single scene uses flash, so we would need a HTML5 backend and all the scene images moved over to a new format. There is a mobile site but thats quite limited in functionality.

As a piece of information, we are currently looking into reducing server costs and hopefully this shall be done soon.

This isnt an issue.

Wut? EDIT: to expand: What benefits should they get? What benefits do artists and coders get currently? Why is this being raised on a discussion about fundraising?

I have clarified what a "disposable razor" is above.

MD needs a disposable razor. EDIT: which apparently Americans dont understand the concept of. The idea off a disposable razor is that you buy a handle + blades. After time the blades become blunt and you need to throw them away and purchase more blades. The handle is normally a one off purchase and for the majority of companies its a loss leader (meaning they sell it for cheaper than they buy it for). The blades are the item that the user keeps coming back to buy. The item isnt needed, you can easily get by without shaving your face, but most people do. Its also a futile attempt, since hair grows and you will need to shave again. The idea of having a disposable razor is a product that the consumer keeps coming back and buying, because they feel they need to, without it actually doing anything useful in the long run at all. Items in the temporary shop do this some way but from discussions i have had most people dont use them/only use one to get to the other items in that branch.

Not at all, Its just that they havent been published. Only an oversight that they havent been :) Fang, Magistra and myself are going for MD Monarchy, i have suggested to them they write a forum topic detailing a bit about them but as yet this has not occurred.
