Unplanned Downtime

Taluntain · Tue, 19th Jun '12, 2:30pm

It's been a while since our last unplanned downtime... while errors such as the one that's caused today's downtime are usually automatically corrected, this didn't happen today for some reason. Unfortunately this has led to a few hours of your favourite website(s) being inaccessible, but it should all be fixed now so you can return to enjoying Sorcerer's Place. Sorry!

No need to apologise, Tal. It's not like you could have prevented it.

Lets find those responsible and -get 'em- now! :-D

You get the pitchforks, I'll get the torches. Then we'll need to find some more people, or we can't rightly be called a mob

@henkie
We can go as the old & the bold. That's enough to scare em!

Gnarfflinger · Thu, 21st Jun '12, 12:43pm

I hope I don't get blamed for this...

henkie · Thu, 21st Jun '12, 5:42pm

That's ok Gnarff, Old One and me'll probably get distracted by all the castles with mad geniuses along the way to you anyway.

Don't know if I'd be able to qualify as the bold one, though. Mobs are notoriously cowardly, or they wouldn't need the mob and the torches and the pitchforks.

@Henkie
Thats ok, we just blame Gnarff when it's all over. He looks like an agitator so thats who they will go after!

I thought mobs were the result of one guy starting something and the rest thinking it's a good idea...

It can be a group kind of thing too, where no-one really decides to do anything, but by following each other, it still happens. The torches and pitchforks will then appear without any further effort - it's the law of cliché that makes it happen.
