I'm trying to get the Rocky template going next though since it was requested. Let's see what issues we run into for that one. I'll definitely wait to hear some feedback on the startup script first.

(Quote) Almalinux 8 minimal ISO is for amateurs. Now, getting Netboot to work and doing Almalinux 8 through that, that's for professionals. But yeah I've been meaning to add all the versions we replaced with "latest" being the next version…

(Quote) Windows sucks too. Completely ignore for 10-15 years, randomly decide to "improve" it (like with Notepad or Settings) in a weird way, introducing a bunch of problems in the process. I've never had it just straight up crash and rela…

Okay the template's good enough. I'm marking it as "BETA" and syncing it now. Issues noticed so far with the startup/setup script: * UFW fails to start initially. May need a restart/reboot depending on options selected. * Firewall rule s…

(Quote) It's worth it because we'll make sure to not have a Debian 13 template ready until 2027.
-
(Quote) Our monitoring system was probably busy spitting out Cloudflare gateway errors.
-
Okay I've gotten the Debian 12 template working. Not pushed out yet, I'm going to do some more testing first but SSH works, networking works, password resets work, apt update works, everything appears to work.
-
(Quote) Okay, I'm going to try something then. That's newer so that's a good clue. Thanks.
-
Okay I've spent most of today really looking into our switches and making some improvements. I broke it for a couple minutes, I'm glad no one noticed. Our monitoring system didn't catch it either. It's still possible I did something weird I shouldn…

(Quote) Why did I say this... (Quote) I feel like accepting preorders automatically curses any upcoming plans.

Next candle is live. I hope this one doesn't get as many orders because it'll be complicated to process.
-
(Quote) Not that I know of, it seems like the most likely outcome is all my fiddling did something but only after I was frustrated and went to sleep. Then it magically decided to fix itself. Well, not that magical, what I was doing was supposed to h…

(Quote) SolusVM doesn't work well with it. They've tried and failed to create a fully functional template for it, and we're also running into problems. They've said it's a confirmed issue with templating on the operating system our host nodes run on…

Today's deal has been expired. It was: (Quote)

Day two is ending early. Get yours now or potentially regret it. Then we'll have a few hours break while I get NYC in order and catch up on tickets. As in day three won't go live immediately after.
-
(Quote) You're on the wrong thread for that, all of NYC went offline and someone blamed the candles.

(Quote) Last time we tried we got back something on how they couldn't do it because we also sell VPN services on our website even though any VPS can run a VPN (they didn't get it or care.) So they'd rather just always be heavily incorrect rather tha…

(Quote) If you don't want anything to be explained and it bothers you, just pretend I said "sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, completely my fault, sorry, I broke it, sorry. I was too busy getting distracted setting up a sale, if I had been there it w…
-
(Quote) We did actually get them to pull a networking cable as a simple potential solution since we couldn't get into the switch to disable it. That was the second time it came online but it didn't help.
-
Unfortunately it's looking to be another one of those situations. If we had the usual tech there, it could be resolved. It's one of the switches. I've lost count, but we've sent in copious brand new replacements, replaced specific parts inside thes…
-
(Quote) At this point it's a conspiracy. It seems like NYC network always goes down on holidays. It's being worked on. Came back for a bit.

(Quote) CTRL+SHIFT+R and not a regular refresh. It should look like this: (Image)

(Quote) Maybe one day I'll randomly join under an unsuspecting name to provide a coupon code. Now you'll also have to constantly monitor the IRC for the next several years.

New mystery is live.
-
First deal revealed soon. Also I might either reveal a clue about one of the upcoming deals or confirm whether or not the first deal will be repeating in any way, as it may be helpful since everyone seemed to only be focused on one potential categor…

(Quote) Private message your service's IP address.

(Quote) I really liked that block too. I kept it longer than I should, it was technically one of our more expensive ones.
-
(Quote) If you're in a rush to receive a response, I can provide a rushed response. You won't like the response though. Any time a suspension appeal is taking a long time it means I really know I have to deny the appeal but waiting to see if I can c…

(Quote) If I were a customer, I would personally be purchasing this deal even if it didn't come with any bonuses. It's probably the most standard/most popular size of VPS for $18.88 per two years. For comparison, our purple competitor is currently p…

(Quote) There's no location based mystery. I wanted to add one in as an "optional" mystery but I decided against it since it would be universally hated and help no one (including me, since I'd have to transfer it.)
-
(Quote) I feel like if I say anything else it'll make you overthink it even more rather than making it clearer. So I'll go ahead and try to clarify further of course. It's just boring (to me.) It's one of the easier ones for me to process. A univer…

If anyone wants to cancel/refund to store credits their day 1 deal so they can purchase another day's deal after the above information was disclosed, if they purchased it before it was posted, just make a ticket before the reveal. Place a cancellati…

(Quote) I personally think the first one is pretty mild. When I say mild I mean "safe" feeling. And I guess I feel comfortable describing all of the mysteries, just from a "safety" perspective. When i say "safe" .. I gu…

(Quote) We're definitely not disagreeing, I was just adding some context. If they averages to 2-3GB memory then that would mean more lower ones than higher ones, although it was balanced relatively well. This year we're just adding a minimum that's…
-
(Quote) Mystery revealed and processed at around 4-5PM PST daily. Nothing “won” yet, the bandwidth fix was a bug and 1GB upgrade was an overall change. (edit) But again please for anyone reading this, don't expect anything more than a 1GB VPS for …
-
(Quote) Okay I've made up my mind, unless anyone opposes. We'll keep the sale going regardless of quantities sold. After the first candle is over, we'll put it out of stock, give everyone their mystery, then put it back in stock as the second one, …
-
(Quote) They were originally supposed to be 1GB crappy boxes but I lowered it to make it slightly more expensive than the Christmas sale, since the Christmas sale didn't have a mystery. I'm changing the them to 1GB now (retroactively.) Note, this d…
-
(Quote) They averaged out to a really good deal. We gave out a high amount of resources per dollar, higher than if it wasn't a mystery. If someone bought like 10 plans spread out, they'd come out ahead. We're being even more generous with the resou…
