USSM status update

Hey guys,

We're down, if you haven't noticed.  Unfortunately, I'm not sure when we're going to be live again.  As always, apologies for the server issues.  Hooray for Jeff creating the second best Mariner blog around.  We'll try to get back up soon so you guys don't get inundated by the, err, interesting folks who find us first.

I'll try to keep everyone updated here on LL until we're live again.

And, as a baseball comment, even if there might be reasons why waiting a week could have made some sense, hooray for the organization showing the chutzpah to make some moves and admit that their roster is flawed in April.  Progress sometimes comes in steps.

For what it's worth

USSM works fine for me right now, and has worked all day.

That will change soon

Looks like its a DNS problem, so whether you see us online or not depends on when your provider updates from our host.

Ah. My provider is my work

and my work has a network that was built in about 1845, so those DNS updates should come through some time in about 2014. Until then I guess I’ll be the only poster over there. SWEET.

We were

but our frat got de-Greeked because of that unfortunate incident with [redacted], so now we’re all emo.

Oh smurf him

It’s not our smurfing fault the smurf couldn’t hold his smurfing liquor.

Come back soon

I check LL and USSM pretty much every day.

Pretty much every day?

What? Do you not refresh both every 15 minutes like the rest of us?

2nd Best?

You clearly did not read Jeff’s last writeup. For shame, Dave. For shame.

...and now I'm here

read?

seconded

I like it when books have pictures

by JI on Apr 30, 2008 2:37 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

It had words.

Not many of them. But words were there.

...and now I'm here

I read everything Jeff does

He’s awesome. It’s Matthew and Graham that are bringing this place down.

(and fans)

sorry, I’m just a completist.

but if you're dyslexic it reads "I'm a complete tit"

so in that sense it’s probably fairly accurate.

I liked Britain more...

Wait, I don’t think I want to get into a war with you. You’ll destroy me. I’m not mean enough. I’m going to pick on Matthew instead.

by davidcameron on Apr 30, 2008 2:51 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Graham and Matthew talk a lot

You should just create a Matthew_ screenname and pick on him.

by Jeff on Apr 30, 2008 2:55 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Shit

do I have to hang out with Kenji now under the bus? That guy’s annoying. He just keeps saying fungo over and over.

by Matthew on Apr 30, 2008 3:04 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

disagree

I think when Jeff and Matthew flirt it enhances the gamethreads.

by JI on Apr 30, 2008 2:46 PM PDT to parent up   0 recs

Granted.

I blame Buzz Bissinger
