Something around 1pm made our servers very unhappy. We're looking
into the problem

Thanks for being patient.

Well thank goodness some of us have Diablo 3 and Summoner Wars and Theatrhythm and Dragon Dogma and music, television, not to mention the rest of the internet to keep us occupied for seven or eight minutes before we come back here to grouse.

And game rules to read (e.g., Here I Stand)....

I'll use this time to prepare my vehement rant about how much BGG sucks because the servers are down and that's not fair.

Good luck and thanks a lot for your hard work.

In any case, there's still Twitter and @rpggeek so I feel fine and still connected in a way :p

It's probably that stupid Super Great Endurance thread.  I say lock it down, and declare me the winner.

No no, I say we keep the site down until the 24 hour mark hits and then boom, the thread is ended.

I was planning on spending the rest of my day on BGG. I guess I'll have to go outside or something now.

I wonder if we should send some of the hamsters from the thrift lists to help.

I watch my video grow. With all these power outages, it's more like watching a stone grow. Just a few more weeks left!

I believe this is a known advertised and pre-planned outage.

Why would they plan to have an outage during the busiest time for playing games; Friday night?

Perhaps because people should be PLAYING the games, not reading or posting about them?   ;)
