site was down last night

[Leon]

Hey ya'll
The site was down all of last night. (Yes. the electric bill was paid) I sent messages to the hosting company as that is where the problem lies almost 100% of the time. I got no response. As I have said before, if it gets too bad or frequent then we will look at other hosting companies. (knock on wood). That process is an unknown so it's better to stay here if possible. My apologies. I was also going into convulsions not being able to get on. As I said I sent multiple emails to the hosting company but didn't get a response (yet). To make up for it everyone at the Net54baseball National Dinner will be entitled to one extra drink ticket!! best regards

I needed my fix of Net54 last night! I honestly think the hosting is fine, a random problem here and there isn't too much of a big deal. Just kind of sucks they didn't respond back..

Leon:

Does that mean that all live auctions on the Net 54 B/S/T scheduled to end last night will be extended another week?

Leon, although this will be another National I won't be able to attend, could you go ahead and send the drink ticket? I'm starting a collection of drink tickets from Network 54 banquets I've never attended. I hear there are no previous examples, as all have been used in the past. Thanks.

I probably tried getting on Net 54 a hundred times! I know my addiction to this sweet place is out of control!

I felt like I was in a 1980's MTV commercial (remember those?) and I was like Rob Halford from Judas Priest screaming he wants his MTV, but with me, I was yelling "I want my Net 54!", lol, very true!

I'm glad it's back up, and I've had another enjoyable day among the greatest group of collectors here on 54!

Honestly, I check in to this site every hour or two and that's every day!

Have a great weekend my friends,

Hi Ed,
Unfortunately all known drink tickets are slabbed and now reside in the Barry Halper collection. I will be happy to save a ticket from this year for you though..

Phil- ON a serious note about live auctions you guys will just have to figure that one out. If it were me I would extend them a few days....as long as everything is communicated in the posts there should be no issues. Fortunately those auctions are usually fairly low key.......let me know if there are issues and I will moderate .

I just got this response from them-

"Hi Leon,

Apologies for the delay replying to you.

Unfortunately there was an incident with the server.

We were remotely rebooting but in actual fact the cable had become loose,
the engineer had to go onsite this morning to resolve, plug in the box reboot properly.
It looks like it may have come loose when all of the boxes had to manually rebooted
following the Telecity outage.

Please accept our apology Leon, we know this week was not a good week for you.
Normally things like this don't happen so closely together.

Sincere apologies,
Debra
