You may have noticed that we were offline from around 9 PM yesterday until about 2 PM EST today (I know Wrathwilde did, LOL).

Sorry about that, the main site DB corrupted, and it took *forever* to get a good backup of our data and re-create all the tables from a clean system copy.

We didn't lose anything, except the latest Mead Hall (LostnBronx, wanna put that back up?).

So, now I'm doing another backup of the *new* clean copy, and then will put the chat room back online. That may have been what crashed it yesterday, when I was upgrading it.

Anyway, have at, and don't forget that there's a *site* wrapped around this forum, with several hundred articles in it...

Oh, and thanks to Dmntd, we now have over *200* recipes in the recipe database.

Have fun stormin' the castle.....

Vicky - up for nearly 48 hours now, and really needing a nap
