Short outage today

Starting the 2005 championship, the largest tournament so far, proved rather stressful on our servers so I had to take the site down for a few minutes to give the it every chance of succeeding. (I was very nervous for a few minutes....)

It appears that people viewing the tournament has made the site run sluggishly too, so expect poor performance for a short while.

-Russ

yes the site is running a lot slower than usual...i dont know that much about computers so i dont know wether this will clear up eventually or if it will be like this until the 2005 championship finishes?

If there is still a performance problem in a couple of hours I will have to prevent people viewing the tournament until a fix of some kind can be implemented.

All the games can be played as normal though.

It has now been blocked.

Russ, how about a workaround, the only group people want to see to start with is the group that they are playing in - could you fix it to just display MY GROUP as a variable when a user views the 2005 Tournament, just for the first few rounds?

I will need to upload a hack, as suggested, so people can see their group before reworking a more permanent solution.

whats a hack?

Its what a Blackburn Rovers defender does in panic when the ball is in his box. HACK!!

Another meaning is a quick software fix, which may or may not be a little bit woohhh, a little bit waaaayy. Know what I mean? Normally done when there are massive time/laziness issues. 😉

if you are talking about the charlton game, im sorry but there was no way in hell that that was a penalty; lucas neill clearly got the ball, danny murphy is just a girl and couldnt take a proper challenge!
