Population Halt

[Xoriet]

Some of the nations in my region stopped having population increases several days ago it seems, while mine kept growing. Is this some odd bug?

Regionmates who brought it up:
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=nac ... censusid=3
https://www.nationstates.net/nation=wub ... censusid=3

My population:

Actually, when zooming in, your population also appeared to be stalled:

It seems that the population stop increasing is a worldwide bug because I seems to be affected...

Same here, and it's effecting the mods as well- I just checked Luna Amore. Even Eluvatar! And they're an admin! Checking Testlandia for good measure shows it happening there too.

I checked this nation, and my puppets. Their population stopped growing on the 14th.

[Merni]

It stalled for a while, but now it seems to be growing again on my nation.

It would seem that the population of Lenlyvit has also stopped increasing, which is very odd.

Yes, it looks like no nation in the world experienced a population increase yesterday. My guess is that it's related to the problems with update.

This major appears to have fixed the issue, though. Merni's region has already updated and their population is increasing once again (TSP hasn't, so mine still looks flat, but I suspect it will rise again as soon as we update).

Pretty sure it's because minor was ran instead of major last night (pretty sure due to the profiler stopping update from automatically starting). So all nations shouldn't have gained pop yesterday, they appear to be gaining pop now though.

I noticed that belatedly. It was hidden behind my flag so it looked like mine was still going.

I'd like to know if our population and residency stats will be compensated for this glitch.

Every dime / zloty / pfennig you've spent on expanding your population will be refunded. Since population expansion is actually free ... no.

You've got a point there, chief.

Just asking... Does a nation's population stop growing when it CTEs? I know it may be an obvious silly question, but then , I wanted a confirmation.

Yes, when a nation CTE's its population stops growing. You can see this on my population graph - I CTE'd for a bit so my population has a flat part around 5 billion.
