Teething

There’s a reason we do this thing called a “soft launch”. It’s so we catch things like the following:
1. If the updater server software isn’t running then a large proportion of people will crash before they even get in the game
2. Our erstwhile publishers had a dodgily uploaded full version
3. People who actually bought the game couldn’t register it because the web client that verifies their game does something different
These things are currently… under control. (2) and (3) are fixed, but (1) is causing us problems as there isn’t enough ram in the machine, and we can’t get more until next week. We’ve stemmed the crashing, but the news still isn’t coming down.
Arg!
