MARTI dice service website issues?

BillCurtis

I'm trying to get myself and my friends onboarded to using TripleA and doing a email game but the MARTI dice services website is not sending confirmation emails. Is this site down? Is this a known issue?

What email-provider is your mail-address from?

@BillCurtis

As Panther said, it's most likely your email provider. I know protonmail and gmx both work.

Some less than great news: With the imminent next release, MARTI will not be working right away. It'll be a few weeks to get it back up. The old MARTI server needs to be shut down as soon as we can, it's the single biggest expense to TripleA and we need to turn it off.

So forum games won't work then I assume ? Is there a work around if so ?

@LaFayette i think we need to maintain it at least for some amount of time and give ample warning everywhere we can this is going to break a lot of in progress games

@LaFayette i would think at least until the new one is ready to go but at any rate we need to come up with (a) date(s) and announce it as many places as we can

The old dice server is too expensive to keep running. The replacement is available, but does not seem to work very well yet. With luck the gap of when the new one is working well compared to when the old is turned off will be short.
