As you know there has been an intermitment issue with map changes on the server. Even tough Valve have announced that it is an issue and is being investigated we have strived to check our server to ensure your gaming enjoyment.
Unfortunately during these checks we have found an infection, although annoying and generally harmless it needs cleaning.
As of 11pm GMT Festers Place Servers have been taken down so intensive maintenance can be made. This is a situation that will "take as long as it takes" but we will keep you informed as to what is happening.
Server trouble and down time.
Re: Server trouble and down time.
...well some of you might have noticed some downtime this afternoon.
Essentially we had to rebuild the server from scratch, so I had to shut down the services so nothing would be lost after we got the backups made.
But it's all done, server has been totally rebuilt and game and web servers restored from backups so hopefully no loss of any posts or stats or wotnots.
last of the outages for a while I hope!
