what? illepall
He's just saying there should be a fail-over plan so that if there's a problem with the master server it doesn't result in total loss of connection to it by the clients.
2006: LFS master server down. Panic spreads on LFS forums.

A master server disappearance has occured just few minutes ago leaving hundreds of millions LFSsers without the ability leave their real life and join to racing servers. The casualties so far are five hundred thousand people killed and injuring scores more.

The server problems have shocked the LFS community which had seemed immune from acts of terrorism that have plagued other sims of the world.

"We all have that feeling of being violated. No server or force has ever done this to us. Until now we were invulnerable."

"It felt like an a nuke exploding right in front of me"


Lazy tech, eyewitness

The immense blast happened at 1757 local time but more detailed information is still scarce. Talks of terrorist acts by other sim forums are being discussed, but the origin of the threat is still unknown. In the meanwhile random people are hung just to releave the pressures from Scavier.

In the meantime the folks of LFS are forced to do hotlapping while the fierce threat is being taken car of. The minister of state has raised the def con to stage minus 5 billion. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DEFCON.
