Now I started again, with the same name, but the statistics not changed, my last appearence still 2013 april. I'm doing something wrong?

The game has a way to recognize players. The name is not used. BB may fail to recognize you, if you re-installed the game and/or deleted parts of your user's profile.

I just have seen that bb.game-host.org is giving me a unknown host error when I try to ping it.

I want to inform you that bb.game-host.org is unreachable at the moment. DNS problem?

Yes, the registration of bb.game-host.org expired. The bastards at DynDNS changed their business model from providing some free/low budget services to trying to rip-off everybody.

Some months ago, they forced every customer of their free services to login every month to renew their registration or pay $25. At first, I played along, since it they used to write an email with a clickable link. Now they conveniently did not write a reminder and already deleted the subdomain. There is no way of getting it back without paying. Fuck you, DynDNS! May your business run out soon.

Until further notice, the stats page of Baller Bude will be only available at http://212.65.13.87.

Maybe No-IP (http://www.noip.com/) will be a good replacement.
I use their service since many years (since I left DynDNS, to be clear) and, until today, I never had a single problem. Their administrative site is very! slow, but that's their only flaw.

Feel free to register a name for BB .

[Biondo]

No, I can't, or I'd already done it. @spi has to give me permission ... and you should read your email more often

[TheDoctor]

@spi has to give me permission.

If you need his permission, ask him!

[Biondo]

Already talked to him, but I was waiting for your reply before taking a position.

[@spi]

hi friends,

no problem for me if somebody register a friendly name for the bb stats site.
/dev/random feel free to do it, you could always contact me, via jabba mail etc. you know my data

Seems like No-IP today is offering (for free) only '.biz' domains, that sure don't fit what Baller Bude is looking for. My possibilities stop here

[TheDoctor]

My possibilities stop here

No problem, Biondo. A honest thank you for your efforts.

Did you take a look at https://freedns.afraid.org/ ? There are other DynDNS providers (e.g. http://www.dnsdynamic.org/ https://dns.he.net/ etc.) aswell.

If all you need is a seldomly changing A/AAAA or CNAME, I could also provide a subdomain such as bb.9k.lv?
There are also some ballerbude.* domains available, but it's usually a hassle to have one person register/pay them and another doing administration (unless you go with something shady such as nic.tk).

just FYI :

since yesterday we upgrade the internet band width.
hope you feel better performance
regards @spi

[Biondo]

Good news, @spi. Thanks.
