Tommy Server Signup

[Bailey]

I'm aware that Tommy server is full for today however, I am wondering if I will be able to sign up tomorrow relative of the status here: https://bybyron.net/helio/sign-up.php ?

 

Thanks

Yes. It resets every night at midnight UTC. For you, it should be right at midnight since you're in the UK.

Okay, so how do I get an account seems its always full?

[wolstech]

It fills very quickly (within 30 minutes typically). It goes by number of accounts, not time, so some days fill quicker than others. It was actually open for an hour tonight. On Sunday it was open for 6 hours. On Thursday last week, it lasted <15 minutes. Our record is 9 seconds ("everybody mashed F5 at once").

 

You can see the periods of time when it was open here: http://heliohost.grd.net.pl/monitor/

 

If staying up to midnight and trying repeatedly isn't viable for you, you can also donate $1 and get an account that way.

Okay, Im planning on donating, how do I go about this and how long will signup take?

Once you donate, you'll get an email within 24 hours containing a link to create a tommy account (the root admin sends them manually, so they're not instant). Minimum is $1 USD. Anything smaller and we lose it all in fees (you'll get a refund if this happens).

Do I have to post in the forums saying I have donated for the Tommy server?

[wolstech]

You shouldn't need to since the root admin gets an email when you donate so he knows to send the invite. If the invite never arrives due to spam filters though, you can post your transaction ID and it can be resent.
