Damn! I guess I shouldn't have made my wife have a c-section to avoid our son being born on friday. Oh well, you live and you learn.

God damnit. I've been going outside into the sun so frequently this week that my skin is starting to turn a tan color.

I think I'm going to die.

Here's something everyone can do in the meantime, I found this on Youtube the other day looking for something i cant remember anymore. It's a "documentary" about the making of Everquest and it interviews some pretty cool people involved in the original project. The guy doing the interviewing and making this video is kindof a douche, but everything else is cool.

While it's a bummer which we all share, we also appreciate all of your efforts Rogean! I was playing on the PEQ - The Grand Creation server and of course, it's down right now too. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Ugh.. I may have to re-activate my SOE Live account to get my fix. (but it's so depressing there).

Not that it matters, but for us real nerds who rack servers in 10 minutes, what can be missing? Power cords, kvm dongle, 2-4 NIC cables, optional cable arm, rails, done. /shrug
Rails that were cheaper to get through the data center than with the server.

Oh snap, the old "$10 dollar cheaper rails will give us another weekend before we have to actually do work" trick...

I can't believe you fell for that one!

150 bucks for a rail kit; it was probably one of those transformer-style rail kits that lets you mount your rack into any size rack.

Clearly our only option now is to all show up irl at the data center and DDOS their exit door until they get our server up.

Or I guess we could go outside or something this weekend. Poo.

Thanks for trying for us! Aint your fault.

I was gonna say the way you came across was way less optimistic than 50/50. Sounded more like a 2% chance the server would be up anytime sooner than monday.

Oh well, party on friday and fights on saturday. Guess I will have to actually leave the home.
