Forum rolled back by One Day (aka HG jumped the shark)
« on: May 13, 2009, 11:36:25 am »
I was cleaning out several old and unused databases last night and accidently deleted the Congress of Awesome's database(Hatemail>>hyperguy.net@gmail.com).

I didn't have a backup. D:

Needless to say, I died a little on the inside.

Then I contacted our server god and asked him if there was anyway they could undelete it, or if they had a backup.

The fact that they had a backup is the reason why you're able to read this right now.  In short, I loaded a backup of the forum from yesterday, and then I made a backup of that.

So the forum's backed up in case anything else happens, and I just wanna say I'm sorry.  We probably lost maybe 3-4 shoutbox entries from yesterday and 2-3 posts.

Oddly enough, I did save a page of the Congress of Awesome blog topic after I learned what had went down and while it was still on my browser:

(There's those shoutbox posts!  I've got to admit, it would be weird to ask everyone to post the exact same things they posted yesterday.)

My posts were lost in the space warp!  I demand satisfaction!

So, shouldn't your custom tagline be "mySQL Connection: FAILED" now?

Everything should be okay unless you run into yourself again.  Then watch out bad things can happen.

But- but- my users expect me to be everywhere!  And now I'm in the future.  And now I am again.  And again!  Ahhh!!  I'm infinitely doomed!!
