Map the event happened on: Names of maps are hard to find

Date of event: 6/18/2021

What Happened?:
Alibi threw a rift outside of the map in a spot i couldn't shoot or reach. So i decided to place down a couple of tripwires to force him out and kill him.
After hitting the tripwire, he ended up falling outside of the map. However rather than kill-binding, he decided to just wait out the timer instead. there was 5 people so there was no xp that round, but there was a T win daily.
I couldn't shoot him and I was out of credits so I couldn't use any to blow him up while he's stuck in the void.

Witnesses: Raggar

Evidence:

You may have been wondering what exactly happened yesterday. I'll explain it here.


I went to bed late after doing the 1v1 tourney, I was woken up soon after with word that Inventories weren't loading. I woke up, checked it out, the database server was stuck in an infinite loop of starting up and shutting down. A scheduled update went sideways according to the host.

Anyways, that wasn't a problem because I was able to access it and dump the database files off of it using a separate boot drive. Plus even if I couldn't FRG's databases are backed up daily automatically offsite. So I wasn't too worried about that. I decided to wipe the entire machine after getting the database files off of it, and re set it up from scratch, then re-upload the database files to it. That was going smoothly, however, while in the middle of this, my personal HDD shot up to 100% disk usage when I tried to open a folder. It froze windows, eventually freezing everything leading me to shut it off manually.

After I did that, it would not reboot. I took the HDD out and it booted up fine. I then tried to put the drive in grass' pc, and went thru a bunch of bullshit to get that to work. It showed up in windows/bios, but I couldn't browse it. It would slow her pc way the fuck down trying to access it. So I decided to take it out and potentially try getting into it some other day with linux.

I have a network accessed storage device I purchased with 2 4TB HDD's setup with a RAID 1 setup. I did this a few months ago when I noticed my HDD acting up. The problem was I focused almost purely on backing up all of my gmod work, I didn't really think about my personal files as much so I missed a decent chunk of those. The last time I backed up my gmod stuff was the 10th at 5 AM, so I only lost a day and half's worth of work on tribulation.  I can live with that. The problem is, I lost a lot of my personal files and projects outside of gmod. Webserver stuff, side projects, source for the FRG launcher, other tools I've built, etc.

Ontop of that, a really really dumb user error on my end made me lose the master passwords to the admin/root accounts to all of our servers. I saved them in an encrypted file, but like a dumbass I named it something generic, not realizing I had another file named the same thing in a different directory from well before this file. So.. when I originally backed up 'important files' I backed up the wrong fucking password file.

I still had access to the servers because I had the passwords saved and encrypted in windows credential manager, but there wasn't any up to date methods to obtain those. But since I still had access under the admin/root accounts, I managed to resolve it in the end. Dodged a bullet there.

All of this running on ~ 2 hours of sleep. I had a massive migraine, and probably lost years of my life due to the stress levels alone.  

I'm happy to say everything is running smoothly now, I have a new HDD in place and I'm in the middle of transferring all my gmod files back to it.  For now, and as much as I can tell, the only thing I lost of immediate importance is the tedious work I did on trib during the 10th. Which was basically the final thing I needed to do before the last big test. I'll be redoing it all tonight once I get everything setup again. I will also be issuing a goodie bag for the downtime. Thank you all for your patience, especially with how long Tribulation has been taking.

So around 9:50 pm EST at 6/10 I tried to accept an offer on my Gard Cata. It wasn't in a bag it was right in my inventory and I tried to accept it but it said offer invalid. So I thought maybe it was a bug and I'd get it back after 24 hours. I tried to log on yesterday but the servers were down until now and I still hadn't received my cata.

P.S. The video I am trying to attach is not working properly so if you want video proof DM me on discord Castiel#7123

This one turned out well, I think, I'll try to get a lyrus and kraken one out soon as well

I did the hard mode version of this, if people want me to do normal as well, I'll be more than happy to!

Will be fixing the video later, but right now, I wanted to get this out there

I did forget to mention, Bloodwynd's speed also scales to your speed in your loadout, it can also drop the Earthbound tier

If you have any questions on the boss, just leave a comment or ask in our discord!

The only thing this weapon lacks is instructions. Write them with the trigger.




*Hits with this weapon stack the victim with Outbreak. Outbreak causes victims to spawn machines out of their body that detonate in a small AoE and do X amount of damage. Every stack of Outbreak increases the frequency of the machines, and the more stacks a person has the more damage they take from machine explosions. A shot from Coded Epidemic gives 2 stacks, while a machine detonation gives 1 stack. Up to a maximum of 6 stacks. Stacks last X amount of seconds. Probably should be kept on the shorter end.

*Fully stacked victims drop a Node upon death. Shooting this node spawns a large amount of machines that track nearby players. Picking up the node spawns 8 machines that follow the player, 6 attackers and 2 healers. Attackers function the same as a normal machine, and will aggro anyone that attacks the wielder. Healers will constantly heal the wielder until they are destroyed.

This affects NPCs, nodes do increased damage to PvE enemies and they should still spawn Nodes upon death.

There should probably be a limit to how many machines you can have from picking up nodes, but at the same time it'd be funny to be an absolute clusterfuck of AI.
