The Hero Bulletin - Getting back to life


Getting back to life

"We're not dead yet!"

It's been quite a while since the last news post. During all this time most of us have been preoccupied with Minecraft. No, I'm not kidding. It's addictive. Don't touch it. You will turn into sandstone if you play it. I'M DEAD SERIOUS HERE.


In this issue we'll cover up:

The new layout, said layout breaking itself and finally getting it all fixed


Back in March this year, we decided to upgrade the magic holding the NDH site in place. It would have been great if everything had gone according to the plan, but fiddling around with magic never works. The upgrade broke the site layout - and we got instant feedback regarding the issue.

If that wasn't bad enough, none of us had the time to fix the old layout. After we took a look at the changes the upgrade had brought, we decided that it would be wise to create a new layout for the site instead of fixing the old one.

Time passed by. We started work on the new layout in June. After someone posted a work-in-progress layout, covered with ponies (and getting angry feedback about it), another member decided to build a proper layout, which was ready by the end of July.

You'd think that everything would be fine and dandy at that stage. Wishful thinking, eh? The layout broke again for no apparent reason. We also found out that the avatars were lost.

Luckily enough fixing the avatars, the layout and various other things turned out to be a fairly simple task. As you're reading this, everything should be working again.

... well, at least until the site breaks itself once more.

Minecraft and Team Fortress 2 servers


As most of you know, we bought a Minecraft server in March. The server has had a steady amount of visitors. If you haven't visited the server yet, do pay a visit as soon as possible!
Pigs. Pigs everywhere!

The IP is 85.236.109.210:31165. Do note that the server is running Bukkit with the Permissions plugin, which means you are not able to destroy any blocks until your name is added to the permission list. Most of you have already been added. If you encounter any problems, let us know!


Our Team Fortress 2 servers have changed since last year. If you've played TF2 on our server lately, you should have the current IP address of the server. In case you're not sure, here it is again:

94.23.121.91:27015

The server is located in the UK and Rioter, a member of the clan, is managing it. Contact him on Steam in case the server is out-of-date.






That's all for now. We'll try to update more often now that we're back to normal schedule!
