So the site went down for a few minutes (Chrome was giving me ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED), and all the sudden every link is now red. They all still work, and I'm pretty sure it will resolve itself when I wake up in the morning, but right now it looks pretty weird. Is this supposed to happen?

Custom titling stopped working too. My handle is supposed to be custom-titled to 0dd1, which disappeared and the tool won't let me fix it. Tried out a couple of other pages I know have custom titles too (e.g. Yoshi's Island), and they're undone too.

Insert witty 'n clever quip here.

It's the end of times people.

Every page covered is only red links.

(That is to say, I'm seeing it too)

I'm seeing it too, but only for internal links. External links are still blue.

I too am seeing it, and I am very glad I'm not alone. Also, links within spoiler tags are still blue as well.

Also, just for fun, I decided to pop over to the Red Link Club's page. That page is very disorienting now.

Seeing the same problem. And by God, it's not comfortable for the eyes.

We are aware of the issue and it is being investigated.

Just to note - the Custom Wikiwords system seems to be another casualty of the apocalypse.

I'm glad it's being taken care of. I was concerned.

I was about to post about this, and am happy that it's being taken care of. Though for me, once in a while, I stumble on a blue link.

Oh, there's another. The 'Awesome' and 'Funny' page's background is pink. PINK. And so is the links.

[up]Wasn't it always? Pink for Awesome/Funny/Heartwarming, Blue for YMMV and Tearjerkers?

Also, just for the record, on the latter pages the links are grey, not red.

Just a few minutes ago they went back to blue again, so hit ctrl+F5 to verify. I think the redpocalypse is over

A server hiccup apparently.

Okay, I'm seeing them again, but only for works. Trope pages are still blue.

There was a change in the servers this night that prompted a few issues. It should be fixed now.
