Yup it appears to be "Under Construction" at the moment.

Sorry guys, we are down. Not sure what the problem is yet. Gonna be down for today at least until I can get with Lazarus and figure out what's causing it.

Do you think it is a Hardware issue, or a software one?

Could someone have hacked PBW and screwed it up? Or did it catch a virus? Any water drip on the Server? A power surge or sudden impact?

First try restarting it.
If that fails, follow the HP advice line and kick the computer repeatedly until toe hurts.
If that fails, load shot gun and shot PC once.

Then go buy new HP PC.

Auto turns already off? Deadline for NGC3 is in 15 hours, and I haven't uploaded...

Or is PBW down completely, so game turns won't be executed anyway?

it will be down.... So do not worry. Geo is very considerate of the PBW community, even in times of crisis. A very good system administrator

Auto turns are off. Right now the server is shut down, so it woulnd't matter anyway. But once we get it back up the auto turns will stay off so people get a chance to catch up. There is a possibility some turns ran Last night. If that happened to you, have your game owner contact us once things are working again. We can set the turn back.

Well that explains why I get an INTERNAL SERVER ERROR ( ~ 9:45 EST, Feb 3 ). At least I knew where to come for the straight information.

So, is it getting to be time to pull a few dollars out and send them?
