So, did we ever get an answer on how the database became corrupted during their maintenance?
Can't drink, smoke, diddle my willy. Doesn't leave much to do other than watch you blokes stumble around playing Agatha Christie.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you to ita for all her work during the days and nights the Buffistas were lost in the wilderness. I'd say we all owe you our firstborns, but what would you do with all those kids? So a million thank yous! (And a few drinks on me, when we meet F2F.)
Also, on top of that, being at PF and WX makes me realize once again how great this place is!!! I felt like weeping with relief when I realized we were back.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
throws flowers (no, not quite right) throws kisses (not that either) throws knives (well, that was a little suicidal)
throws self at ita's feet.
Yes. That's the one.

It would appear that my focus-on-work hiatus was timed so as to cause me the most confusion. Did the board go pfft again shortly after the first pfft last week? Because I remember reading it right after it came back the first time, and now I check it again four days later and I'm reading things I already read and oh the spirals driving deep into my brain agggggh

Robert, the time it came back the first time, we were only up for a couple of hours. Think of it as a weeklong going-pffft with a brief collective hallucination of normalcy stuck in the middle.

Wow. I hope the board isn't dependent on my reading it for it to exist, like in that movie or TV show or book I can't think of right now.

Well, just in case, you'd better quit your spiffy new job to be here full time! I think you owe it to the community.

but ita isn't the only one who's been working while we were playing. A big round of applause for our techies
{{{{{{techies}}}}}}
we wouldn't be here without them.
Edit: Yep. I can't spell. I admit it my spelling is attrocius (see?) I wrote h.e.a.r. bwah.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Um, Zoe, ita pretty much IS our techie.
In matters of dealing with HostRocket, at least.
