The theory behind deadlocks was explained well by @Perryl (AU1) in this comment: https://community.goodgamestudios.com/empire/en/discussion/comment/4579170/#Comment_4579170CM Evoke said:
Why exactly did the Alliance Tournament cause a deadlock?
In basic terms, a second event tried to access player data that were already locked by one. This caused an infinite loop and a subsequent deadlock.What would have happened if we left it longer?
If we had run it longer, the deadlock would gradually occur on EVERY server. The game would not have been playable (login problems, performance problems, ...)
I hope that helps

The Short answer is no, I don't know when the tournament will be coming back, and I don't think it will be coming back straight away, my gut feeling would be that in light of the problems the original event schedule would be used, meaning we will next see an event (nomads, samurais, Invaders or bloodcrows) on Saturday morning if I remember correctly?Lannick4 (US1) said:i now that , but it was saying that it will be fix 2 days ago any info when will it start again the event ?BM ang1243 said:@Lannick4 (US1) Rosie explained what had happened in this part of her post:The theory behind deadlocks was explained well by @Perryl (AU1) in this comment: https://community.goodgamestudios.com/empire/en/discussion/comment/4579170/#Comment_4579170CM Evoke said:

The alliance tournament I believe was meant to finish on saturday morning, and so I can only assume that there was another event lined up to take its place, and I imagine this schedule will be stuck to even though the alliance tournament is no longer on.
so we are stuck with nothing to do then, do you know if the Halloween monthly event from last year is gonna happen next or another kala? and congrats on the role
If I'm honest, no I don't know, and I can't confirm the above statement from myselfLegendarySama (ASIA1) said:@BM_ang1243BM ang1243 said:@Lannick4 (US1) Sorry for the misunderstanding!
