when i was doing the coding on TBR, i discovered the cause of the server splits on hades sphinx hydra ect. well what it was is the number of attack dice was too high. appearantly if you go over something like 15 dice it causes random splits.

Hmm... i think ... well... its worth a shot, auctually. I'll try it later though, after the new ver. Cause i think, just from memory, that someone has 30 dice.

wait does that mean theres going to be server splits in the new version?

If a hero is causing this,then it must be either the Elementalist or the Phoenix Ranger, since those are the only two common enough(and are always present when splits happen).

Yesterday is History, Tomorrow a Mystery, but Today is a Gift...that is why it is callled the Present.

Yes but what I am saying is that if this is a hero cause could spells with certain effects or chances be causing it?

whatever its causing it,it sure wasnt around until recently. I used to play bnet a year ago and I never saw any server split in any game until now. Also happened in twilight's eve( I think, either that or abyss)
