under heavy artillery fire

common test blues:many got felled at commons.me included...and not just passes please.in fact just now econs I'd heard that the increasingly insolent J1s are comparing results even as only 15% managed any kind of pass,as Magda said.idiots...they have 14233982 excuses for failing and no tangible admission of guilt...they'd better have Ms Leong knock some sense into them before they turn out just as appalling as what I'd think of next year's J1s

Hattrick blues:haiz I think I know how it feels like to go 24h w/o any hattrick when their server's down...from Wednesday 2am! =(

Thursday 1155 HT Time(Our time,1755)

The background for the current Hattrick downtime is that over the past week, we have been migrating the site to a new storage solution very similar to our previous one, but with a lot more space for Hattrick to grow in. This move triggered some performance problems that we did not expect, and we have spent the last few days trying to fix those problems together with the storage solution provider. As a result of the decreased performance over the last few days, however, we also ran into trouble with the Hattrick databases. Basically, with the disks not working at full capacity we were not able to handle all Hattrick events as they happened and some database tables came out of synch with each other. We repaired the database during the night but there are some remaining errors that we want to address today. It is very important that the database is healthy when the game engine runs, as it may cause additional problems to open the site too early. Even when this has been sorted out, we will need to keep the site closed for several hours probably most of Thursday - as the game engine catches up and we make sure everything is working properly. Getting Hattrick back up again, and healthy, is our main priority right now. We are also working on getting the storage system working as intended, and we are sure that will be achieved eventually as well. We are so very sorry for this downtime, and we really strive to get back up again as soon as we can with out jeopardizing the game data. One reason we prefer to keep the site closed rather than having it open while we work, is because in a case like this, it is important for us to prioritize the integrity of the data; to make sure your teams, and previous game results, and transfers, and economy are safe and secure. When we open again, some of you will have missed out on things that were supposed to happen when the game was down, and we understand that it can feel terrible. But this is something we all have to be prepared can happen in Hattrick or any other real time environment. Again, sorry for this inconvenience and see you back on Hattrick in a while! .

now then...today 0730 (0130 HT Time)

The repairs are going well, but take time, since almost a terabyte of data needs to be restored. We hope to be up again on Friday afternoon. Again, we apologise for the inconvenience.
