Needs a headline at minimum if core wiki functionality will be affected.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"My guess is because the same hardware change that's affecting the forums is affecting them as well.
That...was not a day.
Infinite Tree: an experimental storyHoly crap that was fast. So what changed?
Found a way to do it faster.
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyAn announcement that "the forums are back up" would probably be good.
Sparkling and glittering! Jan-Ken-Pon!From what I've so far seen, an announcement isn't needed. Apparently tropers have a sixth sense that tells them to randomly click the forum button (that's how several people, me included, learned the fora were back up).
Yep; that's how I found it.
Naturally, it's time to go to bed. -_-

Infinite Tree: an experimental storyShortest "all day downtime" in the history of ever. Nice work, Eddie.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Wait, what? It only took half an hour?

...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.Yep. That was quick.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. DickApparently a quicker way to do it was smacking the servers twice instead of once.
Really? I was going to spend the day doing something constructive! Now I have to lurk on the forums all day instead. Thanks a lot!
(Naww, I kid, I kid)
Well, it took an hour and a half, not a half hour. The less-smart way would have taken 18 hours.
Goal: Clear, Concise and WittyGot to say, I was mighty shocked to be able to get my TV tropes fix on my lunch break! Well done Eddie, there can be no denying that that was superb to get it done so fast!
My name is Addy. Please call me that instead of my username.There's a reason why you're called "Fast" Eddie.
Quest 64 threadOf course! Why just the other day I overheard his wife saying something about how fast he was in...resolving database maintenance issues on his website, the clever boy!
My name is Addy. Please call me that instead of my username.Interesting alternate word to use.
Quest 64 threadOkay, ha ha. I think I'll close this thread as it's lived out its useful life, pending more database overhauls from the Fast One.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"
Yeah. We should definitely add something about the PM system going down.
Anyways, why is the PM system going down? Are we finally adopting that new and improved PM system that Janitor's been developing?
Never be without a Hat! Hot means heat. I don't care if your usage dates to 1300, it's my word, not yours. My Pm box is open.
