Neil_H Posted December 21, 2009 at 03:54 PM Report Posted December 21, 2009 at 03:54 PM Happy Christmas all. I hope your 2010 learning wishes come true. Quote
roddy Posted December 22, 2009 at 10:49 AM Author Report Posted December 22, 2009 at 10:49 AM (edited) Just had two or three hours of downtime, may possibly have a little more later this evening, and another substantial chunk is likely tomorrow. Always find it odd when people thank me for the site - obviously I keep it ticking over and post a fair bit, but its the masses of people coming along and contributing that really make it. So thank yourselves as well. Edited December 22, 2009 at 02:59 PM by roddy Quote
roddy Posted December 24, 2009 at 01:56 PM Author Report Posted December 24, 2009 at 01:56 PM Right, I'm planning to take the forums down for quite possibly most of the day tomorrow, Beijing time. You'll all be busy opening your presents anyway. Merry Christmas, everyone, and if you're staying up tonight to count down to midnight and cheer - you're doing it wrong. That's New Year. PS If there's anyone out there who enjoys tales of character encoding woe - buy me a drink sometime, I have one to tell and the brick-wall scars on my head to prove it . . . Quote
Daan Posted December 24, 2009 at 02:12 PM Report Posted December 24, 2009 at 02:12 PM Ay, and there was me hoping I could spend the day browsing CF in order to make it feel like any other day, since there's no Christmas here anyway...well, suppose I'll have to get some wine or so. Then again, 藉酒澆愁愁更愁, heh. Good luck Roddy! I hope things go a bit more smoothly this time around. Merry Christmas everyone. Quote

Where are the prizes? Who won the avatar contest? It all went to you? Bah humbug. Quote

roddy Posted December 25, 2009 at 06:39 AM Author Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 06:39 AM Ah, so close . . . . Hit a problem with the server (PHP version) right at the last minute. Am looking into that, but need to pause until I figure out what's happening there. All the heavy lifting is done though. Further updates as events warrant. Quote
imron Posted December 25, 2009 at 08:58 AM Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 08:58 AM Who won the avatar contest? It all went to you? Bah humbug.I've set up a poll for people to vote for a winner.

Meng Lelan Posted December 25, 2009 at 02:36 PM Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 02:36 PM But you chopped off Santa's head. Quote
imron Posted December 25, 2009 at 08:52 PM Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 08:52 PM Only for the duration of the competition, then i'll put it back. Quote
Meng Lelan Posted December 25, 2009 at 11:40 PM Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 11:40 PM But you weren't nice to Santa. Look how hurt Santa is. Quote
imron Posted December 25, 2009 at 11:46 PM Report Posted December 25, 2009 at 11:46 PM Who said I was going to get a prize? Quote
roddy Posted January 22, 2010 at 07:10 AM Author Report Posted January 22, 2010 at 07:10 AM Hit a problem with the server (PHP version) right at the last minute. Am looking into that, but need to pause until I figure out what's happening there. All the heavy lifting is done though. Further updates as events warrant. Expect some downtime at some point between now and the end of the weekend. But not tomorrow, as I'm busy tomorrow. Unless I break something today and don't have time to fix it. Quote
roddy Posted January 22, 2010 at 01:41 PM Author Report Posted January 22, 2010 at 01:41 PM Progress . . . . slow progress . . . I'm in the process of moving to a new server, but am relying on the original hosts to do a few things and they've not been able to get back to me as quickly as they usually do. Anyway, posting's back on, etc. Quote
roddy Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:07 AM Author Report Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:07 AM Expecting to be read-only or not very accessible from about 4pm Beijing time tomorrow as I move the database (it's heavy, I tell ya) and repoint the domain at a new server. Hard to say how long it will be before the domain is resolving in the right direction for everyone, but hopefully shouldn't be too long. If anyone is getting bored of these little messages and patches of downtime - me too. It wasn't meant to be this way. I'm sorry. Quote
Guest realmayo Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:40 AM Report Posted January 25, 2010 at 10:40 AM I'm only upset that the little Roddy picture in my firefox tab associated with the website has gone ... Quote
