Ugh. After 3 days, in which I got about 12 total hours of sleep (including a few hours stolen on the train into work in the mornings) I have finally fixed the site, and installed the most recent version of the underlying code, Scoop.

I would really like to thank Colin Hill of Scoophost.org for all the technical support. Without him, we'd STILL be down.

Thank fucking Christ (5.00 / 3) (#1)

I thought my internets had gone down or something. I reinstalled my operating system. Bought a whole new computer.

Canceled and reordered my ISP's service. Took off all my clothes and screamed at the moon. Looked under my house for rat chewed wires. Faxed a list of demands to Network Solutions. I flashed and reflashed my router's firmware. Tried typing the domain name in all caps.

I shot a bottle rocket at a cat.

Thinking that the problem was related to solar flares, I waited until it was dark to try to bring up the site. I tried sacrificing a virgin maiden but I could never keep myself from deflowering them. I unplugged my network cable, blew on it, and plugged it back in. I rebooted. Rebooted again. I edited a text file. I restored from a restore point. I booted into safe mode. I booted into command line. I tried Lynx. I emailed the IE7 development team. I bought a PS3.

Nice to know the problem was on your end.

Pain is weakness leaving the body.
