I play while at work. Tonight we got a message that AT&T will be conducting maintenance from Midnight to 6:00AM Eastern time. This maintenance will affect the entire east coast of the US. They said the maintenance will only affect the Internet, it should not have an affect on the phone lines. I would wait to see if that is the cause of our shard going down. On a side note, I was training a unicorn in the players lounge magic resistance room when the shard went down. The unicorn is not bonded yet. This could be interesting

I guess AT&T's update did not cause the problem. It is after 6:00 and the shard is still down Maybe another thunderstorm?

Well, being sick and away from home and the internet the past few weeks, I had no idea about the AT&T deal, which is what the shard is on. If it shut down the net, then the issue is probably with the program that updates the IP address for the static IP. It seems to only work when it's running as a service and isn't actually loaded up. I can only assume I forgot to close it when I was there the other day. I'm sorry guys, unless it decides to play nice and fix itself, it won't be up for another day or so probably

Ah.. No worries. It's a bummer when the shard is down, but such things are life. Two weeks sick and away?.. wow.. How are you feeling now? We're glad to hear from ya, Kev, and I'm sure I can speak for the rest of us when I say we hope that you're starting to feel better. Our thoughts are with you. On a side note.. I procured the UC spot just behind your statue.. and eh, I think we need to hire a cleaning detail?.. as eh.. erhm.. someone *Eyes dart back and forth quickly, momentarily* has been eh.. well.. it appears someone must be lobbing.. ehm.. rotten eggs and other 'debris' atop your honorary statue?.. *Mumbles to self saying: "It does seem to add neat color, though.." and then quickly coughs and clears his throat* but I mean uhm.. Now naturally I duno who would do such a dastardly thing, of course.. *blinks*.. because I.. uh.. am never there *coughs* to witness it.. *Wide eyed, and then shiftily blinks again* but now it's beginning to waft rotten egg scents?.. and I must say I am outraged because it's competing with MY personal wafting of Tuna scents... And no one and nothing should stink more than I. I will be filing a complaint formally with the committee, You can bet your Tuna Muffins I will. Bon appetit, -Clams

Bills?.. whoever said anything about bills?.. lets re-examine the contract I wrote.. And I quote line 6: 'And I shall reward thee, per word, with 5 million (swift kicks to your butts)'.. that's what I wrote. I guess you didn't read the fine print.. Gets ya every time.. hoohah. And so yep.. ontop of the 16 words you used in the main, you also used an additional 22 words, one digit, and one signature of your name.. thus I'm allocating you an additional expenditure credit for a combined total of 40 x 5million butt kicks!.. You do the math.. Am I not so incredibly nice?.. I think I am.. I do SO hope you enjoy them, Mr Slimers.. I shall embue wonderful swift kicks to thy bumski with earnest enthusiasm, you can be sure. Feel free to come claim them anytime, as I am ever so happy to give them to you. With exciting forthwith kicking damage!, -Clamage

Question: Is it off the internet (still running) or is it down (no time passing)? I just planted fourteen seeds, one of which was the only one I had, so I am kinda hoping it's actually down... *prays* ^___^;;
(Note to self: put plants away in backpack next time I am on.)

We're glad to hear from ya, Kev, and I'm sure I can speak for the rest of us when I say we hope that you're starting to feel better. Our thoughts are with you. Afraid to say but it's been more than 2 weeks. This is the 8th week that I've lived "abnormally" from illness and such, but I am feeling much better than I did like 3-4 weeks ago. Question: Is it off the internet (still running) or is it down (no time passing)? I just planted fourteen seeds, one of which was the only one I had, so I am kinda hoping it's actually down... *prays* ^___^;; I'm afraid that if it's what people believe, the internet going down and not returning, then the shard is still running, all empty and alone. I'm going to try and get it accessible again soon, but you just have to have patience with me.

Ahhh.. wow, Kev.. So that's why all the time away . I'm so sorry to hear that, man. But it's great to hear that you're starting to maybe do better . We continue to wish you a speedy recovery. Comedy can be a great healing antidote. Medicine for the soul and whatnot.. And as such.. I propose you watch this. It still cracks me up.. Oldschool Little Rascals Spanky Mcfarland.. Enjoy : lmao.. "Here, take your brat! Teach him some manners!.." "Smarty.".. Awesome line. hehe

Shard is connectable again, it has indeed been running this entire time, so I deleted the current saves and pulled the oldest backup saves from 4/28/2010 @ 7:48 PM shard time (EST). That way you don't lose as much time (about 15 hours saved).
Hopefully no storms or AT&T fun for awhile.
