Not to be too smart alecky first thing in the morning, but have you looked up in the bugs thread yet?
Non smart alecky answer, Yes and it might be the result of the server switch, and if that's the case we'll just have to wait for everything to settle back down.

Well it's either the server thing or it's an evil plot to take over HMW.
I blame the Minimals!
Either way, I just know I'm foaming at the mouth for the game to be up and running again.

Nah, can't be early release or we'd have at least part of the staff playing the role of rah-rah girl while it's down.
Though we are in the right general time frame for it I think. Maybe another month or two.
If it does turn out to be an early release I'll eat my metal frame and turn Pred

I would mouth off, but the only thing that's coming to mind is juvenile. So in lieu of that I'll sit here and laugh while the evil Decepticon scheme to make you all go through HMW withdrawals works it's magic.

For the record, I haven't been told anything about what's going on.
But then I don't have access to the official word either because of the server move and/or iffy ISP.
But I think it's a safe bet to say that it is NOT HMW2 as OS would have made a post in the staff forum about it.

I feel it worth pointing out to (it seems pretty much everybody) that you can 100% garentee that whenever the site goes under any sort of maintenence, and especilly when it moves servers, HMW breaks down. Fact.
Now as long as it is working again by Sunday afternoon next week, I'll be happy (week off work!)

OS must have had some personal matters to attend to as I haven't seen him all weekend until just now.
So until we get an official word from him let's all just sit calmly and maybe explore other parts of the site and see if they're all working as well.

Then put it in the right thread! (There's one in GD as far as I know).
This is the HMW forum!

Normally I'd have to be alt tabbing out of that game all the time, now I dont. It makes it more enjoyable.
