Can't Access Main Site?

What client are you using?

I just replaced the DNS address ginka.armageddon.org with the IP address 64.252.79.51 in my client and then saved the settings, closed the program, reopened the program and connected via the IP address...

The port will remain 4050.

If you're still having trouble, you might want to make a whole new connection in addition to your main one, with 64.252.79.51:4050 instead of ginka.armageddon.org:4050. Then, if this kind of trouble happens in the future, you may be able to use the backup one.

Sorry, I'm completely computer illiterate, and you all lost me a long time back.
I can log into the game just fine, but I can't access the main site. Does anybody else have this same problem? Does anybody know how I can fix it?

Yes. We are all having that problem. No, it can't be fixed on our end.

I don't know what the issue is... The Kmuddy just won't connect properly via IP.  It's possessed.


These are the bastards responsible though, ultimately:


Nameserver trace for www.armageddon.org:

    * Looking for who is responsible for root zone and followed l.root-servers.net.
    * Looking for who is responsible for org and followed tld1.ultradns.net.
    * Looking for who is responsible for armageddon.org and followed ns2.connix.net.

Nameservers for www.armageddon.org:

    * ns2.connix.net returned (NORECORDS)
    * ns1.thebiz.net returned (NORECORDS)
    * ns0.connix.net returned (NORECORDS)


I say we pie them.  With ICBMs.


edit:

So... I switched the address to the IP in Kmuddy, and then CLOSED the program.

After reopening it, I was able to connect via IP.

Strange.  Jubilation!

Interestingly enough, I had to enter the IP to connect this time too.  But kmuddy didn't give me the same problem at all.

All well now though.
"But I don't want to go among mad people," Alice remarked.

"Oh, you can't help that," said the Cat: "we're all mad here. I'm mad. You're mad."

"How do you know I'm mad?" said Alice.

"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."

Like I mentioned before, you can put 64.252.79.51 into your address bar of your browser and it should work. You will need to tack on any subdirectories to that.

64.252.79.51 will take you to the main page.
64.252.79.51/general/guilds.html will take you to the list of guilds.
And so on and so forth. You may need to roll over links to see what you need to add on. This works for me in Firefox and Internet Explorer, and should work anywhere else.

Yup, stupid DNS follies again. Use the IP for now, like everyone's saying, and I'll take care of the DNS thing in the morning, when the hosting company is open again.

Arm is evil.  And I love it.  It's like the softest, cuddliest, happy smelling teddy bear in the world, except it is stuffed with meth needles that inject you everytime

Dang, you're right. Well, it was working briefly for a while, anyway.
Suckage.

It'll probably be in its current, semi-borked state for another 24 hours or so, then should be fine. Could be less hours, I don't know. I think I'll change hosting providers for DNS now. I meant to do it last time this happened, but I forgot. Anyway, things should be back to normal soon.

Thankfully, changing to the IP address got me! Yay!
