I thought it had less to do w/ Server strain and more to do with Database storage....bigger database w/ all the newly created/retired players made the game a bit slower.

most of the problems were client-side, especially since rerolling scripts were the first introduction to greasemonkey for many people. not only were they installing multiple copies of conflicting scripts, but were trying to do multiple rolling sessions across tabs with impossible values and then they would leave it cranking all night.

things could get a little slow on certain key days, but i never had a problem myself. i don't know what bort is using for a backend, but i can't imagine it would have that many scaling issues. if anything, it would be overbuilt.

Scaling issues on Bort's backend could lead to controversy.

I think they script was being used to create the player and train and if the player did not get training break-thrus it would retire the player and try again

the rule was put in place that there would be no training breakthroughs for a player until they were 4 days old or something

so it was a creation/training script I guess as opposed to a rolling script

and p.s. most of hazy's comments about the reroll script need to be taken with a grain of salt. his programming skills were beyond rusty (self-taught cobol, of all things) and he had a difficult time conversing things in perspective. think TSE with too much time on his hands.
