Running Schedule of Shatters.Net?

Post #1by t00fri » 22.06.2010, 21:03

Since quite a number of days, shatters.net appears to be out of operation during most of the central "European working day" and returns into operation when Americans tend to become "active users": Qualitatively, this is around 6:30 pm Central European daylight Saving Time (CEST) or 9:30 am Seattle time (PDT).

Curious question: is this an accident?

The machine that was running shatters.net had a hardware problem that caused it to shut down intermittently. I would restart it after shutdowns, but couldn't do this while sleeping. That's the reason that the shatters.net was on a Pacific Daylight Time schedule. :) Normal operation should be restored now.

Yeah, thanks for the "official clarification" of my question . However I found it myself meanwhile, after you wrote in the dev list

Power supply overburst? Mainboard's battery charge exaust? Guru meditation software failure :?: :o

That is an outrageous lie! :evil:

No warrior with honor would do something like that.

After we have found the guilty Romulans and punished them accordingly, we will pay Andoria :blue: a visit to talk about honor and spreading rumors and lies about us. :P
