Hit me harder

Hi there,

The long-awaited web-based Starbound character generator is ready! All systems are go. But we're huge jerks, so we also thought this might be a great opportunity to stress-test the servers to ensure that they can handle the sort of traffic we're likely to see at release.

...so we need you to refresh this page. A lot. Like, a million times. No, I'm not even kidding. Tell your friends to come refresh it too!

When the thread reaches one million views, we'll release the hostages the character generator.

EDIT: You guys did such a wonderful job breaking the forums, that we've already found out everything we wanted to. So we're going to release the chargen early.

 

Your will be done. (lol)

 

Goodbye, F5. It was nice meeting you.

 

MUAHAHAHAHA!!!
I say.

 

F5 F5 F5 F5, press harder guys! We CAN DO THIS! F5 F5 F5

 

LETS DO THIS!!!

 

This shouldn't take long.

 

Piece of cake

 

With pleasure.

 

Is there a way for us to see how many views this has while in the topic?

 

The views only update every 5 minutes on 1s and 6s.

 

Oh yes, that would be awesome, but the guys won't have enough time

 

I'll just weigh down my F5 key for a few hours...

 

Oh god you actually did this.

 

Lets do this.
199 when I went on.
*EDIT* A minute later it went from 199 to 11,449 o.o

 

easy enough

 

LET'S DO THIS. PIRATES, DO YOUR REFRESHMENT STATIONS!
Ready...
Set...
DRINK/HIT F5 UNTIL IT BURNS

 

You leave me no choice.

CALL THE PENGUINS!
