I wonder how many users went into withdrawal and needed therapy?

You should see my workshop... going to take a week to clean it up.
Its funny how "Hooked on Robotics" one can get... and how badly we start going to pieces and slinging tools around when our mainline goes down.

It wasn't pretty!

Whew! The twitch in my left eye is starting to subside now....

<raises hand> But it had absolutely nothing to do with CD being inaccessible...

It's a good thing it was off season and not say the last Sunday in February or March. Then it would have got ugly.

I would've fixed it way faster, then.

Off-season .. I just let things work out on their own.

Well, lack of CD has made me a mite philosophical.

There was a time not too long ago when communications like this were not so instant, wide spread, and influential.

Is that a good thing or a bad thing? Regarding CD - it is a lonely thing when it is gone, I do know that.

Thank you to the folks who restored access.

I was (kind of) freaking out because I had stuff I needed to post about Mayhem in Merrimack.

I even logged on before going to school to get it out.

I'm not exactly a morning person and I like being early to get a good parking space, so having any downtime in the morning is rare.

I noticed that the TIMs accounts for teams were also down... Are the FIRST servers in Texas?

[JesseK]

Ha, go figure, some network servers at work were messed up. I contributed inability to get on CD to the inability to get on any external site altogether and vice versa, hence I never tried anything else on the internet until lunch time. See what happens when we use any one thing as a metric for other things?

Im glad to see others survived the great CD blackout of '08 only to be rivaled to the Northeast Blackout of '03

Gee I thought I was the only GEEK!! LOL It's amazing how addicting this site can be. There should be a 12 step program available for people who want to kick the processor..Hahaha Welcome Back All!!

[Travis Hoffman]

Is it me or are the CD notification emails taking some time to catch up? I received a "New Private Message" email for a PM I replied to about five hours previous. I'm also getting subscribed thread new post emails for posts I've already viewed.

That downtime has affected gamers also. Ridiculous. I nearly lost my mind with *half of the internet brought down on it's knees. ThePlanet.com still has a few servers down, they got hit pretty hard by it.

Thankfully, I now have CD to read, at least.


*half = all servers hosted in Texas; is not an exact estimation, just my guess
