Hi,

I've accidently activated the vacation mode with my account, and I was wondering If any of the admins could turn It off, or If anyone has had a similler problem In the past, what did you do about It?

Please respond asap, before some black holes kill me. :S
-Thanks, Sin.

You can turn it off after 200 turns...but I dont know if the devs can turn it off...maybe

This would also be In responce to your post back on Bug reports:
I havn't done to to escape a nearby fleet that would kill me, note: notthat there even was or anything, for the record. If that was the case even then I'd rather take a chance fighting them off rather then having to wait, 2 days and a half, and risk being killed by a flay of U4's while I'm compleatly helpless. Just Incase you think I've done It on purpose for that reason.

I'm also aware of what It does, and I was talking about It in TG fourms with everyone else there, they recommened coming here, or wait and hope.
If they can't do It well then, I guess I'll just have to lump It I guess. But It was worth a try If they can't.

At least TG is fast, if it was the eye it would be probably a week or something before it could be turned off

and here I thought I was the only one, I had no idea even how I got on vacation mode, but I finally discovered that I was, and I tried getting off, but to no avail, time has stopped and I can't do anything with my empire, and it seems I can't even get a response from my alliance. HELP!

You can only put vacation mode on through preferences, its quite difficult to do by accident though...are you sure its vacation mode? Check your score and empire age, if both are 0 then your on vacation mode...

What galaxy is this? Right now all the galaxys have ended except Trio, so in all those time has stopped and nothing will happen until reset...

If its in Trio then the only way to turn it off is to wait 200 turns. Login to the galaxy your in, click preferences at the left and then you should see a box about vacation mode, and a time limit when you can turn it off...

Also vacation mode don't effect messaging or forums...and I think aliance requests still work also...not sure...

ah IC, so in order to build a new empire in Trio, need I delete the one in Pleades? Because I tried deleting it, but of course no turns were turning and it did not delete. Is it possible to have more than one empire, one which is frozen in time on one galaxy, and the other growing in Trio? and btw, sorry if I missed this, but when is reset?

Yeah, you can have an empire in every galaxy with the same account, just choose the galaxy and try to log in to it, it will ask you if you want to make a new one for that galaxy, your other empire will remain in the other galaxys.

Also...it is *ok* to have a second account, as long as its not abused, for example you can have 2 accounts and 2 empires in a galaxy, but just dont make them work together or join same alliance. Its does say not to in the rules, but as so few players are here its not enforced...

I have no idea, probably some time after Trio ends...
