Default Re: PBW Down? - Back up!

I guess if his ISP is down for the PBW server, he might not have any connection to the internet from home. That would explain why he hasn't posted any updates.

Or perhaps he's busy backdating all the processed games. Or, just maybe, he has real-life things to do.

Nah, couldn't be that. SEIV is much more important..hee hee

Well, on a personal note, I hope he didn't get in an accident...'cause I know if there was a way to post an update, he'd do it. A neighbor or a phone call to someone to post something. (something!) 'Cause he knows how much people "live" for their games. So....I hope he's OK.

This is how rumors start. Next thing you know Narf will appear and post that Geo was killed after driving his car into a 40-foot tall monster made entirely out of cubic-zirconia that was fighting another 40-foot monster made entirely out of Nerf.

Too bad Geo didn't drive his car into the Nerf monster. I bet he let his monkey-butler drive for him and that's who we should blame, and not the monsters fighting for their survival in a world that hates them.

We need more monsters and less monkey-butlers.

Default Re: PBW Down? - Back up!

Despite the rumors I am very much alive.

The DSL is still down, I was able to get connected through a dialup modem to get you guys an update.

And before you ask, no I cannot run PBW through the dialup modem.

The ISP is sending out a tech Monday. They are saying it's something in my wiring. I think this is unlikely since all my phones still work. I suppose the router could be having problems, but my LAN runs through the router and it still works. I suspect it's something at the CO, but they have to do things the way they have to do them I suppose.

I turned auto proc off Friday at around 6PM. Don't know how many games ran before that, hopefully not too many.

The server is fine. I can still reach it through my LAN even.

Before you ask, no you cannot come to my house and play PBW.

Hopefully things will be back up sometime Monday. I'll keep you posted.

Can you come to my house with the server then and let me play PBW?
