The Group Ironman shared storage system will be made temporarily inaccessible. We're unable to confirm how long this will last, but we'll update you as soon as possible. We're sorry for any inconvenience.

Update 21:30 BST

Investigation still ongoing. For some transparency, it is an investigation into reports of unintended item behaviour related to the storage. There's nothing to suggest anything untoward, disabling item storage is just a precautionary action. We thank you for your patience, and we'll update you when we can.

Update 00:05 BST

The investigation is proceeding well, however we've made the decision that shared storage should remain largely inaccessible for the rest of the weekend. We appreciate that most players treasure their weekend ‘Scaping, so we've implemented an interim solution to allow Group Leaders only to withdraw and deposit items. We will do our utmost to re-enable the storage as soon as we can. Thank you for your patience, and your incredible support during Group Ironman’s launch.

Update 11th October 16:10

Work continues to reopen the Group Ironman shared storage system as soon as possible.

We're confident that we've solved the root cause of potential issues, but we'd like some more time in testing.

Thank you for your patience so far. We'll have more news to share tomorrow!

Update 12th October 17:30

We've made good progress on resolving the shared storage issues, and we are aiming to restore full system functionality with tomorrow's game update (11:30am BST). We would like to thank you for your patience, and we'll share more information tomorrow morning.

It doesn't look like bug abuse. And it doesn't seem like there's any need for a rollback or anything like that.

News to me. What accounts are you expecting to see on there?

Someone found a dupe. Shocker.

Doesn't seem to be anything malicious. Just items behaving all unintended.

People f**king suck. Can guarantee the first thing people were trying to figure out was how to dupe items. What absolute idiots.

At least when gold buyers are banned on sight this will slow down a lot

No kidding. I don’t give a flying f**k if ironmen found a glitch to get money. Patch the issue so it doesn’t happen again, take away the money they gained if possible and if not possible who gives a damn?

Nobody is taking your progress or your stuff away.
