Europe Outage

deleteddeletedabout 8 years ago

As some of you may have heard or noticed for yourself, the site is currently down over a vast majority of Europe. This is due to the GDPR coming into effect. For those of you that don't know, the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a new regulation in EU law regarding data protection and privacy.

We are unsure of the impact that this will continue to have on Epicmafia, and we cannot give you a definite answer on when the site will be back up for those affected. Lucid is aware of the problem.

The round has been paused for two days to wait it out and allow Europeans to get in contact with people and ask what's going on or use VPNs to access the site. After midnight tonight, the round will be unpaused and we will carry on as normal. We apologize for the inconvenience.

We'll update you guys if we learn anything else. If you have any questions, feel free to ask below or PM a moderator.

At this point it's time for Lucid to give up EM. If he's too lazy to make the site GDPR-compliant and opts to ban god knows how much of the userbase then there's absolutely no reason for him to still be in charge. This is basically going to be the downfall of EM if it doesn't get fixed. Give it to someone who gives an f.

List of continents where Oceania is only used (incorrectly) in two models

If it helps, New Zealand is a part of Oceania, but New Zealand is on it's own sunken continent: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zealandia
okay, the whole thing about any set of land masses making its own continent is almost as pointless as being able to identify yourself as any gender when there are 2 sexes
next, i'm posting this in unpopular opinion thread
