Crash and Burn
Hey, that was fun.


And I thought it was just me punching too hard on the keys!

Thanks for documenting the downtime so precisely.

Truth is, I haven't figured out what happened yet. Our whole network went bazerk, so my best guess is that our internal network switch failed. Our ISP isn't letting me blame it on their router (although I think it's likely related).

I was sleeping at the time and my "SI monitoring" beeper was set to "vibrate"...it was dutifully buzzing around on the carpet while I blissfully slept. It's sort of like the AM/PM problem everyone has at least once a year with their alarm clocks.

Another posting break
or
And that number shall be...

The last post before the 503 Error
#reply-5181666 (Note the 666 in the post number) 4:54

The first post after the beastly one above
#reply-5181667 (Posts with 666 are evil eh ?) 7:10

Here is a link to our last downtime break that was significant.
#reply-4141699, notice it was a post 666 then also.

Break of 2 hours 16 minutes
Not a record breaker but it still a healthy gap.

On a side note, it is interesting to see it was a Pfizer post that bought SI back up, Viagra anyone ?

This is not a conspiracy, it is not a ploy by FBNA to generate interest in the new NFL Franchise (The Bashers). I will be at the Basher Tryouts doing my stuff (kicking <g>).
