You may be aware that we have reached 25000 subscribers on our YouTube channel.
Thanks to everyone who subscribed! That means a lot to us! We will do our best to keep on providing you the best in longplay entertainment.

And thanks to anyone that's considering subscribing. And thanks to anyone that doesn't want to subscribe. And to anyone vaguely related to someone that has subscribed or may/may not be subscribing in the future.
Or something.

Wow! That was fast!

I think we can all give a (gentle) pat on the back to our friend Connor here, who granted us access to his FTP server. Thanks a lot!

Backup server: ftp://cassiopeia.solit.se
User: upload
Password: upload

Our upload page has also been updated with the new information.

Now I know there's quite some backlog that's been piling up, but before you all start uploading your longplays at full speed, bringing the server to its knees, keep in mind that we will only start reviewing your submissions on monday, so take your time, you've got all week-end.
If the upload speed drops, just pause and restart later. Let's be nice and try not to make Connor regret his bold move.

Thanks in advance.

Howdy fellow longplayers and viewers!

Our current ftp server is down.
Which means we are dead in the water. People cannot submit new longplays anymore (except for admins who directly publish their own stuff).

While I have no doubt our friend Raidennn will be able to fix the issue with his ftp server, it clearly shows how heavily we depend on a public ftp space to let people contribute to our community.

That means we should find a backup solution, so that we can switch to plan B when the need arises.

What we are looking for is a download and upload space with at least 50 GB of storage and no daily or monthly bandwidth limit. Two different account types would be useful too (one for the uploaders, one for the admins). A temporary solution would be nice, but a long term, reliable solution is what we aim at.

We have the feeling that public sharing services like Mediafire, Rapidshare or Megaupload are not fit for this usage, because they all have bandwidth limits.

If you happen to be able to offer us this service, please contact us by PM or on our IRC channel (any admin will do, ScHlAuChi, Geekmeister, T-0815, Ironclaw, RickyC, Tsunao or me).

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone!
We thought you'd be happy to see some change around here, so we have made some cosmetic updates. We hope you'll like them. Oh! And we have a new WOL logo hanging up there too! Enjoy!

It was also high time to fix some glitches, so you'll be pleased to know the longplay voting system should now be operational. We are currently working on that timeout that forces you to login again and again. I'm sure you'll notice when it starts working properly.

Just for good measure, we have thrown in some more enhancements, free of charge. The number of unread personal messages should now appear in the left column, which makes PMs quite a bit more useful. You now have a direct link to our YouTube channel in the top menu. Oh! And while you're looking at the menu, you may notice a link to our online shop that's selling some goodies for you hardcore fans!

If you spot any issue, feel free to tell us in the forum. have fun!

That's it for now. Happy New Year and everything!

Well, I have got some good news today! We have got a new FTP server, so it is now possible to upload videos again. I'm going to ask hipoonios how to change the information on our upload page, since that information is no longer valid. A big thank you to Raidenn for giving us access to a server!

If anyone is going to upload any longpays just send me a pm, or join the irc
You have to upload the videos in the folder named Uploads only. Raidenn said he would get help to setup a folder named Longplays for us later though...

Also a couple of changes, in the textfile you submit with your video please add the length of the video, the size of the video in MB or GB and add a screenshot from the game. If it is a game you recorded with fraps, you can use fraps to take a screenshot in .jpg format for example, I believe most emulators will take screenshots for you as well. So upload a folder with the name of the video, that includes the video (of course) a screenshot and the info text
