Mix 'N Mojo and other sites down

edited November 2006 in General Chat
The servers for such sites have been down for quite a while... Is anyone looking after it?

    Server-related, apparently. :( I hope it'll be fixed soon. It would be very sad for MixnMojo and Samandmax.net to be down on the day Sam & Max is released.

    Yeah it sounds like the Mixnmojo server has suffered some horrible hard drive-related issue and may be out of comission for the time being. Data loss was also mentioned, which is pretty frustrating since they apparently also don't back anything up! Here's hoping they can bring it back to life relatively soon, though. :(

    Are there any spare megs hanging out the back of the Telltale server they might wish to rent out* at a reasonable rate, Jake?

    *Or that you could sneakily transfer the site to?

    It may come back to life sometime soon, in some form, on the Idle Thumbs server... That domain name was registered so long ago and has been poorly maintained, though, so it will be a pain in the butt to change its info around at all.

    edit! sounds like they were able to recover a lot of the data from the exploded drive, so things should be coming back to life sometime soon!

    Ah, there's nothing in the world like a Mixnmojo server crash. Stuff of legends they are.

    Seeing as it's back up, though, this post is somewhat meaningless and now exists so that I can get the coveted “Posts: 1” thing under my Joined Date…and that’s where babies come from. :confused:

    Yeah, and it seems that it's always the hard drives that cause the trouble.

    It sounds like the new server has a real backup solution in place, so maybe this is the last time the site will eat itself alive.

    Perhaps they ought to relocate from next door to that magnet factory.

    So, less than 24 hours until Sam & Max's release, and true to form, Mojo has fallen over again!

    Yay!

    That's the Mojo I remember! :D

    So you used Mojo some time between the years of 1999 and 2004 then? :D

    Yep, up until George Lucas’s Brillo Pad hair had finally scrubbed the rest of his brains out leaving nothing for Mojo but news on Star Wars and lackluster original titles (excluding Gladius).
