And we’re back…

Technical Difficulties
Well after a full day of downtime the home page is back in action. Apologies to all of those who did not see my Xfire or Twitter messages, and were wondering what was going on.
At 4:30am yesterday I received an email from my hosting provider informing me that one of their servers had suffered serious damage. This was unfortunately the server that hosted our humble website, and consequently our site was unavailable for the majority of the day.
Thankfully though the server has now been replaced and they are in the process of populating it with the data from their nightly backups. I just had a quick look at the forums, and thankfully it all looks up to date.
I just wanted to apologise for the inconvenience, and to say that if something like this happens again (hopefully it won’t!) that I will be posting server status updates on the SotW Twitter account. That way you can all follow the status of the server and get an idea of the ETA of it’s fix.

SotW on Twitter- Site is back up woooooooot!
- Currently sitting at 32 hours since support ticket was lodged. Fun.
- @Shayagor ah true. Well I can't even log in to cpanel to make backups because I get the bandwidth exceeded message. Le sigh
- @Shayagor heh i think it takes 7-10 days to switch the domain over to a new host so we're stuck anyway. But I'm busy researching new hosts
- Worst case scenario: site will be back in 39 hours when July gets here :/
