What has happened this weekend through today? Fallen forum and Netplay Lobby

Post by Joseignacio »

I have seen that from about Saturday 8 pm Spain time (about 2 pm USA east coast?) the lobby kicked us out of the game and it was down till today sometime about 5 pm here (maybe 11 am there), the website and forum were off as well, but I have not seen any note on the issue neither in this forum nor in the Board Index or the News forum.

Can we be explained what went on?

Thanks

I did not notice any break in either forum or website. Don't do Netplay, so cannot say anything about that. I visit the site constantly, so I would have noticed a problem with the WIF forum or website... perhaps it was inaccessible by yourself for a different reason than the site being down.

I concur with craigbear. Had no issues with MWIF forum in the last days, while visiting at least daily.

The netplay server was off line. It should be working OK now (according to Steve in a mail to me yesterday).

The Slitherine system people had made a change to how the NetPlay Private server processed user names etc. They have corrected the problem
