I ran a database cleanup job around midnight, Thursday morning 8/23. Hopefully this will speed things up a bit, as I know the server has been lagging a bit.

The last time I ran a similar script, some stored case files became corrupted and were unplayable. I think I've ironed out those wrinkles, but let me know if you spot something like that, or something else seems wrong today.

Thanks.

Hi Ben

I didn't have a case active but now I do and I have no suspects or clues.

Yes apparently this is Sleuth-wide :)
No doubt our fearless leader will come to the rescue once he becomes aware of the problem. In the meantime --- chat on!

I have only 4 cases, have lost two stored cases, plus the rewards from one case - 2 skill points and 2000 plus xp, which i just got doing my first stupendously hard case about 5 mins before the work on the server began.

With the stored cases there would be no suspects or clues... sounds like the same problem piper6 mentioned above.

I was playing just before the clean up and lost the case i was working on there too.

Oh, and i cant do any "little jobs" today either.

Also, with the work on the server the day before, i lost a dragon pendant as i was putting it into the agency's locker.

Just logged in to find no cases - bah! Hopefully it won't be too long before this is sorted...

I just logged in and was unable to open cases stored. I also am only allowed to open 5 cases today instead of the usual 12!

As of the timing of this post.

I am able to open cases, none were lost from my files and I have my standard 12 to start the day.

Being in the same agency as Patric all of his (that he had stored under his name, or under mine that I worked on) are gone.

The dragon pendant missing along with another mention of a locker ghost mishap on Sleuth Talk makes me think that those incidents might (?) be giving us a clue that the server is having issues? Before things slow down? or are they an issue becuase of the slow down?

It appears that case files stored in my apartment are also corrupted

I would love the server to be faster as much as everyone, but would it be possible to know in advance next time?
That way we can clear our case files before server maintenance happens and not lose anything. I'm scared to even look at the files in my apartment. The one I had at the agency is gone. Unless a miracle happens and some survived, it looks like I'm going to be quitting about 10 cases because of this.

I want this day back, if know what I mean...
There's money on the table. We should receive some kind of message to know about this kind of stuff
