Qt3 Downtime 1PM ET July 17

The site will experience <30 minutes of downtime starting at 1PM today as the host is migrated to new, supposedly much faster, infrastructure.

Don’t freak out!

Gonna freak out! :p

No DON’T freak out!

Nooooo, the downtime is sure to come right as Knightsaber’s about to reveal the pivotal crisis card that will make or break humanity in our month-old Battlestar Galactica game!

Had to be done.

OMFG WHAT WILL I DO WILL I ACTUALLY HAVE TO WORK? I HOPE NOT THAT SOUNDS LAME-O.

All done, back up in 20 minutes. Stand down, gentlemen.

I briefly died during the downtime. I saw what I think might have been God? He was shaped like my work desk and laptop, and he kept saying something about reconciling invoices.

I went to lunch, I missed nothing! :D

I thought it was 1pm PST…I feel ripped off!

Oh noes, I missed it. Is it too late to freak out?

Now that it’s over, you may freak out.

Seems to be faster, huzzah!

Wow, this is much snappier. Great job everyone!

Our host switched from Xen to KVM. After almost a year with linode, verdict is in-- they are fantastic. First host I’ve been 100% happy using.

So is Qt3 up yet?

Hey, did the site go down for anyone else earlier today??

High praise! Good on linode for making the site admin happy.

Their dashboard is extraordinary, and their support is responsive and intelligent. Their prices are competitive, they don’t oversubscribe their hardware, and the SSD storage is fast. If you need to host somewhere, go with linode.

Can I freak out today? I missed it yesterday.
